Name a track that'll convince me: I'll slsk it and give it a shot.

'Friend of Ours' is about the guy they dedicated the award to, and I think it's heartbreaking. Though I'm not sure 'I'LL LISTEN TO 4 MINUTES AND THEN DECIDE IF THEY'RE GOOD OR NOT' is exactly fair.

Well, when you consider:

- there are a hell of a lot of bands in the world
- most people who I trust don't seem to like this one
- they're not in an idiom I much like anymore

I think it's not ungenerous! I'll give it a listen, thanks for the recommendation.

It’s not really a justification I can understand, because if I didn’t know much about an act who won a high profile award I would either keep quiet about them or investigate further before offering my opinion. But ho hum.

Hold on, what am I meant to be justifying exactly?

[datura800.livejournal.com]

Why were you offering me explanations then?

I think we're getting circular! I was under the impression that "investigating further before offering my opinion" was exactly what I was doing by asking you for a track - and was justifying asking for just the one.
