b/c it's basically a completely uninformed review

C+ isn't positive

he sounds like one of those guys who think Tiesto is the coooooolest
and that Oakenfold is creating forward-thinking music



...or like those people who thought that Daft Punk only released "Discovery"

To be honest, I could give two shits if someones personal opinion differs from my own. I don't see the point in getting frustrated just because my views on a piece of music differ from someone else. But that's just me.

i'm over being mad now. i just got my blaze on and can't even remember why i was upset to begin with ;)

i started out just wanting to post the link to the article. the thread on top was "insightful dutch article" and i thought i'd do a parody thread with this article but when i read the full text i couldn't help thinking the writer was an idiot. i strapped on the flame thrower and set the controls to 12. i never asked anyone to agree with me.

click that link, then select "Add BrotherLovesDub to Your Ignore List" on the right hand side.

problem solved.

Do you know who Nick Southall is? I'm not his biggest fan, but trust me, he is not "one of those guys who think Tiesto is the coooooolest". Knock him for whatever, but dude has cred, and for better or worse, 'was there'.

I think that if we take off our fan bias glasses we would see that this is how most average listeners will think of the cd.....it's NOT as classic as the "classics" were and if you didn't like UW before I don't think OWB will change that opinion. The guy was a little harsh and misinformed about a few facts, but I'm afraid he's mostly spot on. Besides, it's his opinion, and last time I checked he's free to have one. Who reads Stylus Magazine anyways?!:p

Without getting into this whole "aggrevated" crap, the entire review is pretty decent and sounds pretty unbiased and authentic to say the least. He knows what he's talking about. Its a great album and definetly along the lines of their classics but its not really very interesting for this day and age. As almost all of their albums, I'll be listening to this one on a hazy day, great morning after or a tram ride in the rain. Radioheads new album... now thats interesting :)

check the comments. I called him on the carpet on a portion of his article. He basically admited he'd only listened to it twice (thrice?) regardless. I'm sure he has loads of records to review and can only give cursory listens...which leads to the problem of "Critics". They don't really listen well. They can't. It's their job to review music. Unless you are really talented at reviewing, you don't hear the way John Peel or Tony Wilson heard...

crAnk!
