Saying "I've listened to it once & it's shit" ain't going to win any respect for your opinion. Whether it's the Manics or George ass fucking Formby.

Yeah, I'm in a mood.

Well I'm not going to shout at you because I like you but I think it tends to be clear, for the most part, when you're going to like an album or not, my favourite albums are the ones that I knew were special first time I heard them, even if that didn't hadn't yet translated into really liking them.

Yeah, I think PFAYM needs 5 listens to form a solid opinion but there's nothing stopping people posting what they think based on their experience so far. I can't wait to hear what people think in a year's time.

And idealistic as it is, all opinions deserve some respect, I certainly respect the opinions of pretty much all of FD.

Hope you become cheerier mate.
