  2. Hey there, don’t know if you might remember.

    I’m the guy that commented on your ‘Fire From the Sky’ (Shadows Fall) review on Amazon UK?

    Just wanted you to say that I was inspired by the way you write your reviews and helped me to make my reviews better, though subliminally. Thank you.

  3. Ha, cheers man, that’s cool. I was the same with a user called ‘Umur’ from Metal Music Archives, I just liked the idea of providing all the information that I myself would be wanting whenever I read online reviews, and the idea of separating being personal in statements of opinion versus being clinical in statements of fact.

    Ones like that were always the ones I was giving helpful votes to on amazon so I guess if I liked them I may as well write kinda like them too.

    1. Yeah… give me a link and some details and I’ll post something if I enjoy it. I’m not a big fan of negative reviews, so if I dislike it I’ll just leave it blank.
