f34r4bl3 means fearable, I don't even know whether this exists in
english or not. This was meant to tell you that your review
awoke fear in me (just joking of course).
The way it was spelled is due to overuse of elite spelling (aka leet 
or 133+) in which mixed case is used a lot as well as replacing 
characters by other symbols having more or less the same shape.
Then "e" can be "3", "l" can be "1", "g" can be "9", "s" can be 
either "$" or "5", "t" can be "+" and so on. Your imagination is the 
limit.
If you've heard about the old computer trojan "Back Orifice" : it 
used port 31337 (to be read eleet = elite).
So f34r mY 3v1L |_33+N3$$ :) 


But I just listened to Gavity from your Indicator EP, You're l33+ +00.
(just found it a bit burbly at one moment with the effects on the 
voice and the filter + delay on the bass) : you don't seem to be 
affected by the GLUS (Gear left unused syndrom) which is particularly 
shameful when associated with the GAS :)

Xavier. (yes french people are that strange)
