Awesome reviews dude. I like how you go through every song in detail! I might check out the RHCP album now. It sounds like something that I'd like. But I was wondering, are you going with using ProBoards as your review page because of the familiarity? You might wanna look into WordPress. It's sort of geared more for writing and you can get paid for doing it too. A lot of big companies have WordPress websites but they buy premium accounts so that you can't tell. The news website CNN uses a WordPress. theshiek.wordpress.com/ There's mine for an example, I only have two articles up because I haven't had any ideas lately, but you can design the entire website however you'd like, add in HTML features like Twitter or a music player. You can also (If you think the value is worth it) buy a premium account and be paid for writing articles. I like what you're doing with proboards though as it is. I'm just throwing that idea out there.

Nice reviews. I agree with you on the Crossfade album. I haven't got around to checking out the new RHCP yet but I will tonight after your review

Yeah, Ben, I was doing it due to familiarity. The word press looks A LOT better, but I wouldnt know where to start. I'll look into upgrading to that.
Do you do music reviews at all? If you do, would be awesome to get you involved (if you wanted, that is).

Yeah, I downloaded WordPress and the installations may as well be written in Korean haha. I wouldn't have a clue.

I've done one music review in my time, and it was the day after Chinese Democracy came out lol. I've never been good at reviewing music.

I need some paragraphs for a new article series im doing called "The World's View on __________". Anyone who wants in just write a paragraph similar to this, including why you like/dislike them, fav songs, fav album, opinions on members, etc.
First one is on The Foo Fighters. Heres my paragraph for an example:
Josh McLaughlin - Melbourne, Australia: I think Foo Fighters are a band that gets better with age; and one of the few bands still make pride and true rock music with actual soul and meaning. Their new album Wasting Light is my favourite Foo Fighters album EVER, and I can't wait to see them live in December! Favourite songs by them are My Hero, Everlong, Times Like These and These Days. Dave Grohl is one of the true frontmen in rock. Not a singer, not a guitarist, a REAL frontman!

I'm tempted to do one on Corey Taylor just because he's my favorite singer/lyricist if you want me to

So you guys up for writing them? Im wanting them from people all around the world, hence the name of the article. Just say why you like/love/dislike them or whatever, favourite songs/albums if you like them, kind of like my paragraph for it.
