After giving this much thought, it's been decided to close the original "reviews" thread for "The Pale Haunt Departure" and create a closed thread where we will only post select reviews. As I have stated before, I will post both positive, and negative reviews, as one persons dislikes, may be anothers likes.
What we will no longer do on this forum, is acknowledge and help promote "lazy journalism" and the websites these people write for. Our fans opinions matter much more to us then some idiot in the basement of his parents house, strapping on his "internet muscles" and writing reviews while having no credentials to do so, all for the prize of free CD's from the record labels, which he'll more than likely leak to the public to secure his status of "cool" to the other music thieves out there.
If anyone here finds a review, and feels they would like to speak on it, feel free to start a new thread, post it, and talk about it, but if that review is filled with lazy, untalented, uneducated, and musically moronic garbage, chances are, we will not be responding to it.
We have wasted enough of our time, our thought, and our breath on this stupidity. We have allowed this shit to litter our forum long enough.
We have always been open with this forum, and have enjoyed participating in conversations with everyone here, and will more then likely continue to do so. This forum is paid for by the band, and is used as a tool to help promote Novembers Doom, as well as connect with the people who listen to and support our music.
This being said, we encourage everyone who picks up a copy of the CD, to relay your thoughts in a thread for "fan reviews," as I've already stated, it's your opinion that means something to us, and we'd love to hear what you have to say.
Thanks everyone!
