Oooh, fantastic review   Tuesday, October 23, 2001 (7:59 a.m.) 

How better to convey an accurate portrait of this score than to spend the entire expulsion of verbal diarrhea that is a filmtracks.com "review" by 'debunking' the press release line that some Decca guy no doubt threw in as an afterthought to try to sell a couple hundred more records? Your critical genius never fails to astound, Clemmensen.

(Not to mention, of course, the continuing misuse of the musical term "minimalism" -- by the way, can we say it a few more times? The approx. 43982398 occurrences in the review left me wanting more -- minimalism, minimalism, minimalism, minimalism, minimalist, minimalist, minimalism. There.)

Glad I could help brighten your day!

Nothing pleases me more than to piss off the assholes of the world to such an extent that they actually post their displeasure in this place for everyone to read and enjoy.

... and the fact that my interpretation of minimalism has been pissing you off for many months now brings me even greater joy.

I am a big fan of this site. At the same time, I can't believe that the editor is using a language that people who post comments here are not supposed to use (isn't that in your rules???). I had a much better idea about the class of the editors of this site and I guess I was wrong .

After reading the editor's reply to a more or less offensive (but still justified) comment, I think this was my first and last visit of this site.
