I was talking about his labels of "worst album ever", "quintessential album" etc. and his little intros he gives to the albums he's about to review. 2. I don't have a website 3. When did i rate face dances over quadrophenia?

Lengthy, emotionally driven rants with almost no effort whatsoever to have a fresh unbiased look at the album. Also, a lot of his reviews are way too influenced by what other critics say about the album, and less about how the album sounds. He's someone that can take about 100 words worth of material and spread it over several pages. Factor in the wacked out rating scale with absurd evaluations on "listenability", "resonance", and "adequacy" and you get a site that's basically unreadable to me. He should have stuck with posting reader comments.
