    Last question..... what do you do when you really don't like something or it's not your preferred genre (being polite!!)?

  • I just usually say 'This isn't something I'd normally listen to, and I didn't really like x or y, however, I though z was good.' I try and be positive about something in the track. I don't like really heavy metal or shouty screamy vocals, but if it's got a great guitar riff I'll talk about that.

    I tend to start my review by saying that it is not my genre then try and find at least one positive point. Quite often I like the music as such but not the vocals etc.

    I find its often the vocals that let it down, you get a brilliant intro and then all of a sudden pat butcher starts shouting out some ramblings that you just cant understand (or want to listen to)
  • ha ha, that is unfortunately true, or mr bean on some heavy metal track, and you just think are you older enough to be out in a pub boyo?! on the whole though, i've been really impressed with the quality on there, or maybe it's just all my kind of music!

  • Anyone having problems with the site, seems to have just crashed??
  • Yep, keeps refusing to accept my reviews, sometimes it does somtimes it doesn't. I just keep nipping out of the scout room for a bit and trying it again. Annoying, but obviously a lot of people can't afford to go out on a Saturday night!
