There's nothing more terrifying than a scientist who thinks he's seen God

I was looking something else up, but randomly tripping over this old review of Runrig's Mara reminds of just why I love glenn mcdonald's writing so fiercely. Those first two paragraphs, out of nowhere, articulate a type of criticism more interesting and valuable than that practiced by a good, oh, 60% of my contemporaries.




(yes, it's safe to assume I'm not talking about ex-Stylus people here, and no I'm not under the delusion that glenn's way is the only good way to do music criticism)
