Okay: your own smugness and pretension about what critics think, their motives, etc., is extremely offputting. How the fuck do you know that those critics don't really like the "obscure" albums they say they do? And to say that "really" they like some album because they got laid while it was playing (although you wimp out on the specifics) implies you don't actually think critics like music as music, only as memory-enhancer, nostalgia, social lubricant, whatever. I like the idea of someone reviewing their entire collection. Based on your description, I wish someone else were doing it. Honesty, eh?

Our likes and dislikes, from the little bit I've already read, seem to jibe, so thanks for validating my feelings towards music!
