I'm one of the guilty characters of whom you speak, but my taste isn't based on a decade necessarily. I'd love to talk about punk/hardcore more too but you definitely have a different general taste for the stuff than I do, regardless of when it was made. With you, it's kind of a "if you have nothing nice to say then don't say anything" thing for me.

I consider your journal(s) to be forums themselves and I like pretty much all of the music you talk about there. I think I have an Editor's Pick aversion. I like to see my posts show up immediately. I should get over that.

Maybe Erica and a couple of others, but that's it.
I don't have nearly your level of academic knowledge of it but classical music is ingrained in my soul. I should try to talk more in depth over there.



Two more I should mention are Urban and Canwllcorfe. The former has great taste in obscure NWOBHM and I also have a lot in common with him regarding Brit 90s stuff. C-Corfe has good taste in general and he's often into stuff that became available, like, just yesterday.

Anyway, all mentioned here should know that I take it all in even though I rarely respond.
