I like the use of black on black.

This website, however, is a disaster. It took a full 5 minutes to load, then once it finally had loaded, there was an extra intro that couldn't be skipped. WHAT? Nearly 10 minutes just to get to any information? I couldn't even find any contact, stockist, etc. information. Eep.

Complete disaster that site. Couldn't bring up the patience to wait for it to load.

I waited that long just for some lame intro? I agree, the site is a disaster.

Did that website seriously just try to load a preloader and then try to load another preloader and seriously expect me to sit around waiting for it? Why do they think they're product is that important to me?

I quit.
