Reviews OUIJA - RIDING INTO THE FUNERAL PATHS - REPULSE
Ladies and gentlemen, here comes yet another typical black metal band. This style has become so highly derivative that the European Union reports ripoff black metal as the second source of employment gain in Europe in 1997, ranked right behind high-priced prostitute Diana Souvenir peddlers. There is not an ounce of originality or creativity to be found here. Next! - Ali "The Metallian"
