Some might think it accurate

Post-modernists might call it a 'dominant story', an attempt to 'colonise' our music tastes, the 'reification' of certain artists over others to create a canon, marginalising hidden artists

The harshist, a most fun, reponse to this list has to come from the book by former Rolling Stone editor, Jim DeRogatis, Kill Your Idols: A New Generation of Rock Writers Reconsiders the Classics. Younger critics are given a voice, one that shreds many of the albums held sacrosanct by RS
