You haven't once responded to any point I made. Sorry if my exposing your many false claims seemed trite. If someone proves you wrong on many points, just calling it trite is a pathetic defense. Tell me, are you willing to admit that your claim about RYM was completely unfounded and untrue in every regard? Or is that another question you will avoid.

Naples, you seriously scare me. Why would choose to restate this strawman: "I stated that I think it is often inappropriate to label artists or albums by only one and prefer to apply those labels to songs to avoid over generalization"

when I repeatedly proved that it is an irrelevant strawman argument? No one here, or RYM, like you falsely claimed, is trying to do that!!! Stop talking about it. It's not relevant. I begged you to stop bringing it up because no one is talking about that or arguing against it.

Talk about trite!!! You are a joke. You've spent the last three posts reposting how allmusic classifies Bjork and this strawman about one genre labeling that no one is promoting. Please, do us a favor, and repost allmusic's genre labels for Bjork for the 4th time. Trite? Don't make me laugh.

"Just listen to the music and form your own opinions."

Hahaha. Dude, take your own advice. You've done nothing but repeatedly quote allmusic. You have no opinion. Allmusic is your opinion.

"are you willing to admit that your claim about RYM was completely unfounded and untrue in every regard?" NO, I made no claim about RYM.

"often inappropriate to label artists or albums" was a statement not an argument even if you wish it to be. I said it and did not say anybody else did. Do you determine what comments can and cannot be made on this site? You have never proved anything to me yet.

Read my post, I posted two different quotes from Allmusic. You posted at least that many from RYM.

Burn your stupid strawman! I find Allmusic more reliable than Jewsome, it is published in print and digital formats, written by educated critics, and widely read.

You said this about rym, buddy. RYM albums have multiple labels, primary and secondary. The site is not declaring "an album a certain single style when it contains more". We've proven this. The only thing that is "fallacious" was your claim about the site. Why would you lie when the proof is in your post? Naples, come on. Now are you willing to admit that your claim about RYM was false? We'll do this step by step.

Really? In the post that preceded it, I talked about the voting system on RYM. Then you followed with this:

"A vote on a single style label for an album by an internet group of non-experts declaring an album a certain single style when it contains more is fallacious."

Tell me, to what "vote" from "an internet group of non-experts" were you referring?

If I wanted to attribute that generic statement to RYM specifically I would have. The statement is true. Please keep your opinions of what I mean to yourself. I will gladly say what I mean and mean what I say, I don't need your confusion.
