2936679, Pet Peeves with Music Journalism
Posted by obsidianchrysalis, Thu Jul-02-15 05:09 PM
Music journalism is great for letting fans get a peek at some of the thoughts, behavior and inspiration for some of our favorite music.

Sometimes, it can be a chore getting to that jewel at the core of a piece of work or inside a musician.

Whether it's journalists who like to insert themselves and their editorializing into their work or interviewers more interested in telling their own story rather than the musicians story or my personal favorite, a music review that doesn't actually review the record and uses gibberish type words to describe the character of the music.

I'm sure you have your own issues with an journalist, an aspect of journalism or a particular outlet.

Please list them.
