THE CD RATING SYSTEM:



5/5 = Masterpiece
4/5 = Excellent
3/5 = Above Average
2/5 = Average
1/5 = Below Average


What exactly is "Average"?

2/5 "Average" CDs are ones that are okay, decent, nothing special, and probably only recommended to serious fans of that particular style.
Since we mostly rate CDs that we buy (and are obviously in our desired style tastes), most of our CDs will be better than "okay", "decent" or "nothing special". This means that the median-point will actually be more like 3/5 "Above Average".

Also, it's important to understand that all ratings, comments and reviews are simply opinions, even though they're from 9 guys who have been well into metal (mostly power metal) for many years. Therefore, it's highly recommended to get into each reviewers' tastes and reading our PROFILES page and PLAYLISTS page will surely be a great way to start.

Finally, MP3s/samples are not one of the things we provide (for a variety of reasons), but almost all bands now offer MP3s/samples on their home-page. It's recommended to visit our LINKS page so you can quickly navigate to one of the various "Recommended Website For Band Information" links provided.

So discover new bands, learn of new releases, and get a general idea of the quality of the thousands of CDs listed here at Metal CD Ratings, then head off to hear for yourself!

Enjoy the site!!
