Most of the music critics I have run into were failed musicians with a chip on their shoulder.
A critics place is to critique ‘music’ not just the music they enjoy. Readers could care less what your personal choices are and actually feel threatened by a critics biased remarks.
A band almost always changes once they get a producer, the record companies just want to sell records.
The reason that popular mainstream exists is because the public has been slowly conditioned to think this is what they want to hear. This is a great employment of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) which is a huge tool in media manipulation.
