Althoguh there is a “predictable” element to this chart given the genres it deals in, it is not that generic and there are some surprises – Cop Shoot Cop are one of many “Scaruffian” bands to get limited attention or criticism on this site, and the live albums are somewhat interesting as well. Joe Satriani and a few other Bush Senior Era artists could also be added to that list and elevated my rating upon a second thought.
