so basically this guy thinks Mr Vai should wank his way to glory and disses Dev

He needs to hear Infinity or Terria then. Maybe even the 'lad.

yea a scathing review of the devster there, not mentioning his name either
im wondering though, is sex and religion worth the buy for a Devy fan thats not familliar with the Vai?

Yes, "Still My Bleeding Heart" and "Dirty Black Hole" are quite good.

funny thing is that the guy knows absolutely NOTHING about Vai's history, saying that "the band limited Vai's skills and that's why the album is predictable and conventional". Ok, he could be ignorant and talk about the "lesser known" musicians, as Dev and TM Stevens, but holy fucking shit it's TERRY BOZZIO on drums

but whatever, people with bad musical taste and no functional neurons are as abundant as hydrogen

And for some reason they're always magazine reviewers. I'll never understand that.

Here's my review of that review:
Not everything is going to be Sgt. Pepper's fucking Lonely Hearts Club, get over it, it's not the 60's anymore, and stop comparing everything to the classics. Do your goddamn job!

All these reviewers are failed musicians with shitty garage bands that just get pissed when an up and comer like Dev exhibits more talent on a demo than they exhibit on a studio album. So they tell everyone it's awful and hope they derail the success. Fuck them.
