I'd love to see links to negative JB reviews which dare to be harsh
rather than apologetic. If you've got 'em, post 'em. I don't recall
seeing any such tone on the list. Since he's only interested in
writing about one niche of music, it seems unlikely to me that bands
in that niche wouldn't win a certain degree of favor from the start.
A cursory websearch for his work reveals nothing but beaming praise.

I'm tired of this, too. But it'll go back to being about DB's agenda,
soon enough. This thread could have ended immediately after my
initial "Another poll" post, y'know. Considering that the Audities
poll results drew ZILCH response beyond a few
thanks-for-compiling-it-Michael's, I didn't think that it was such a
sacred cow. Or that people would be so keen to dispute another poll,
which had the same general orientation and no shortage of common
contributors.
I'd like to think that everyone found this debate much more
interesting than Topfivemania, but that's probably nowhere near true.

Your both wrong.
