Why doesn't MR do it? Every other site that I've come across does.

Maybe they should just score EPs on a 0–50 scale. CD singles can be on a 0–30 scale. :D

Any band that releases singles deserves a score of >20. Maiden exepted, of course.

Greater than 20? What does this mean, sir?

Darn. Obviously I meant <20, I was distracted by your magnificent moustache.

Incidently, Sire, prithee you have posted a certain CD containing musikk from the fell band Kataklysm yet? I await with breath baited.

No, that's actually bone. Before being able to get myself a decent job, I had to cut off my horns...

A lot of EPs are better than actual albums.

Singles are shit, though.

We don't score EPs because that was decided upon long ago. I think it had to do with not scoring anything with less than 30 minutes of music initially, but then it just changed to not scoring EPs, demos, or singles. I'm not sure of the reason, probably has something to do with EPs being incomplete as opposed to albums. But I don't really know, so let's wait for someone else to explain it better.

Yes, I did...like 2 weeks ago. Hmmm...I'm sure you'll get it soon. It's funny, I have a friend who buys me rare shit from the UK, when she mails it to me, I get it in a week, when I mail shit to her, she's lucky if she gets it in 2 weeks! Lame.

I threw in some select songs from my friend's band, too. And some stickers, I think. Whatever I had laying around.
