But instead of tapping into kids' natural innocence and idealism, the music industry decided to target all that was cowardly, stupid, and brutal in the rock audience. Heavy metal for all its symphonic bombast is a real rock-and-roll style, but with very few exceptions, its content is egotistic at best and nihilistic at worst. Meanwhile, schlock merchants and nostalgia-mongers of every stripe turned AM radio into the refuge from intelligence that cynics had always believed it to be.

Christgau was a pioneering nu male decades before the term was coined.

So much of criticism is just nonsense. Literally, nothing is said there. Strictly speaking, it's not even criticizing music itself (i.e., sounds) as it is image, lyrics, culture, style, people, etc. Wew, lad.

His review of And Justice For All didn't tell you anything useful except that the songs were too long.

Didnt enjoy this album at all, the album cover gave off a completely different vibe than the actual music did. I was expecting some moody melancholic music and got some shitty dance tracks.

What are you up to tonight?
What are you listening to?
How do you feel?
What's on your mind?
I am listening to The Weeknd. I'm pretty sure The Hills is my favorite Weeknd song. So much raw energy in there. And dat bass.

They're just a Reddiohead clone that /mu/ thinks is inferior while singing praises to Reddiohead at the same time
The irony is that the only real criticism most people here can come up with is that they're a "Reddit band"
