I very much agree with the previous post. What Froots does is to create a level playing field in which english music is absolutely on a par with everything else on the planet as it should be. That one thing alone makes it a worth while excercise. It sometimes introduces me to music I would not otherwise get exposure to. Perversely, I have in the past checked out things that it has been disparaging about to discover the odd gem. Overall it does a good job, is well presented and well written. There are plenty of other places to go if your tastes are extremely specialised aand a universal view doesn't appeal to you.
