Too bad, many of you have fell to the dark side, but i belive in redemption, you can all be saved.

You have a propensity to confuse your personal taste in music with some objective statement about music.

That you PREFER the music of the baroque and classical periods is one thing.

That good music was or was not written after that period is, obviously completely outside of your ability to judge.

You appear to have so little knowledge of music in the 20th century and beyond that, really, your opinion on anything related to it is pretty meaningless.

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
