Wizard Bloody Wizard

[edit]
  • ... that Electric Wizard described their album Wizard Bloody Wizard as "43 brain-damaging minutes, six savage hymns to death, drugs, sex and violence, music dragged (and drugged) back from the grave…"[1]

Created by Robvanvee (talk). Self-nominated at 16:12, 5 December 2017 (UTC).

  • Robvanvee, new, in time, long enough, neutral, QPQ done (just fyi, you should also indicate that the nomination was in time). First paragraph under "Recording" needs at least one citation, as do a number of quotations (these should have a separate citation, even if it repeats the one at the end of the paragraph). Also, the hook is 204/206 characters, depending on how one counts the ellipsis at the end. I would suggest striking "latest" (and with the the comma following Wizard Bloody Wizard. Parentheses are normally frowned on in hooks, but this one seems to work and add to the appeal of the hook. --Usernameunique (talk) 08:15, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
Thanks Usernameunique. Added the reference as suggested to the Recording section, all other quotes seem to be sourced. Struck "latest" as suggested and have hook down to 200 or 203 depending on the ellipsis at the end, as you say. I'm not opposed to coming up with another if this is a problem.

Robvanvee, just need a citation after "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is by far Black Sabbath’s most experimental album," he said, "while this record is by far Electric Wizard’s least." and it'll be set. Hook is now good in terms of length; the "... " at the front doesn't count towards the 200 character limit. --Usernameunique (talk) 20:44, 13 December 2017 (UTC)
OK, reference in. Thanks again Usernameunique, I appreciate you reviewing the article! Robvanvee 05:41, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
All set now. --Usernameunique (talk) 11:22, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
