You're making a mistake in assuming that anyone agrees on what good 
music is-there may be a consensus to some artists but I've definitely 
been hyped about some shit that I don't dare mention on this list.

My personal approach is to find people who like similar things and also 
just to gain awareness for my next listening session at the store.

A review is nothing more than an attention getter than a bible.
