I suppose journals don't have to be just about music. But where music is concerned I agree that loads of words don't really mean much often. Maybe if someone has an interesting interpretation of the lyrics...but with the music itself if someone wants an essay on it the best thing to tell them is just to take a closer listen to the music themselves. To discover and understand music I think people have to do it for themselves, you don't pick everything up in one place you have to search and explore. That takes time of course, but as with everything there are no real short cuts if you really take something seriously.

I don't know if you were intending to do this, but given your totally excellent (and scary!) vision of Hell, were you thinking that maybe Satan casts you into a huge filing library (think the end of Raiders or the X-Files) where only the crappiest albums are kept, and your punishment is to review them all?

Sounds like Hell to me!
