Good Reissue, Bad Reissue.

Norwegian viking metal supergroup, Amon Amarth,

have announced that they will be re-releasing their long sought after

debut album, "The Avenger." 

Really?

Guys, I'm a fan of your art and have a couple of your albums

but be realistic with yourselves...

The holy grail is long sough after, not your crappy sounding and under produced first cd.

Does anyone really want to see the origins of this band?

I'm all for a good reissue of a great album.

Pearl Jam just did it with their masterpiece debut, "Ten."

But the only reason Amon Amarth are doing this is because their 

last album was a critical and commercial success for them.

And when I say commercial success I don't mean it sold millions,

I mean it sold 24,000 copies besting their previous record, 

which only sold 17,000 copies. 

It's so obvious it's just a cheap ploy 

to milk their small fan base out of money.

And look at one of their fans,

haven't they done enough to this kid already?

I'm not sure if it's a he/she or a she/he?
