In terms of trusting someone else's opinion, it's important to take it within the context of their previous output. Basically like, I interpret the list within the greater context of Hardcore for Nerds as a whole, if that makes sense. So within that context, I can assume how the albums on the list may or may not apply to my tastes. <BR/><BR/>I look forward to seeing the finished product.Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14836975731602885685noreply@blogger.com
