>implying they're bad
He's hilarious, pic related, posting some faves
I personally really, really like xgau.
I may not agree with what his favorite albums are, or even those that he says are worth listening, but I appreciate him because he's consistent.
If I'm looking for an album that's easy and accessible, I always look to xgau.
He knows what he likes, and he doesn't change his preferences around whatever hype or controversy the artist might be experiencing.
It doesn't seem like much, but that's a lot more than what a lot of music critics and journals can say about themselves.

He's the only critic whose opinion on popular music I value, even though I disagree with him a lot.

Scaruffi can't write for the life of him.
Wouldn't the only good music critic out there be yourself?

Reasons?
I killed Christgau with my big fucking dick
He does what a critic should do, which is to mock things for entertainment value.
Why would I ever listen to a critic that writes an over-wrought, completely serious analysis as if it were a dissertation?
Reminder he gave Soulja boy's debut an A or some shit like that
>>61136413
no because everyone on /mu/ has shit taste and can't think for themselves
