Started over, and it worked this time--just like normal.
Anyone else get this? This better not be a sign of things to come... they wouldn't restrict the friggin' reviews to members-only status, would they? (Seems unlikely--but if you'd asked me months ago whether or not they were likely to cut the site's overall usefullness and functionality by a third, I would have said, "No way!"...)

They've been doing this for years, but it used to be completely random (refresh & it went away, usually). Temporary glitch, I suppose.

Yeah, it won't go away. So to find out the tracks on an ARE Weapons album, I've got to register on their site which includes a required field asking me how much I earn?

Something going on at their end, definitely. We're not the only ones getting this (xxpost)

Don't want to blow minds or anything, but you could always lie about this.

Dear billionnaire AMG visitor,
we are currently looking for funds to completely renew our site and we were thinking...
