Quite frankly, I don't really read reviews to find out a reviewer???s opinion of the music. I will read them for the writing itself (if the writer has a particularly interesting style), or if they contain useful factual information, but otherwise I would rather be doing something else. Most of the time I feel that I can succinctly sum up my opinion of a record using a simple 1 to 10 rating scale, so that is often all that you will see accompanying the pics and sound clips that gives my opinion of an album or song.
