imo it's almost giving them too much credit to talk about graun commentators in terms of an oppositional discourse, you can go on p much any article about anything on there and find the same soulless misanthropic knobheads impotently gurning away

It's always the dumbest voices which are the loudest. For all the outraged fossils in the Guardian comments section, there are probably 10 more who enjoyed and agreed with it to some extent.

ENTER SHITARI - see what you did there.
Amazing to think those guys started out playing at the same local venue I promote in and now they're topping the Kerrang list.
― besides Sunny Real Estate (dog latin), Friday, 14 December 2012 12:40 (eleven years ago) link
I suspect the thing that's most enraging the comments box crew is the Carly Rae/Usher double whammy at the top and being angry about mainstream pop and/or R&B isn't really something that's confined to older people.
I dunno, I think any poll trying to second-guess or consciously cater to the tastes of a readership as broad as the Guardian's would just end up kind of glom-in-the-middle or fail at its stated aim anyway. Especially in a year like 2012 without any real defining narrative. That way lies modern-era Village Voice cobblers.

it's the people who don't enjoy Call Me Maybe OR Guardian commentalists i feel sorry for greatly admire

the lower rungs of that Guardian poll are infinitely more interesting than the top 10.

92 YOU SLUT! - MEDIUM BASTARD
― Albert Crampus (NickB), Friday, 14 December 2012 12:57 (eleven years ago) link
it's odd to see people assuming that the guardian's EOY lists are reflective of pushing a particular musical policy rather than throwing all the contributors' semi-unpredictable taste into a hat and seeing what comes out in the wash, and also that the taste of the "guardian readership" is at all homogeneous itself
and yeah almost every guardian section gets this to an extent, the music section doesn't even get the most hatred or outrage. the only articles with pleasant comments are the really niche ones that only enthusiasts will care about in the first place
― lex pretend, Friday, 14 December 2012 13:02 (eleven years ago) link
also it's not exactly pushing a mainstream pop line when only 5/20 of the top trax were top 40 hits
― lex pretend, Friday, 14 December 2012 13:04 (eleven years ago) link
yeah the comments thing is a problem everywhere, really, not just the guardian. look at the number of people who just post "tony b liar" or whatever on any/every political thread.
they're not even representative of anything, i bet a huge majority of people, probably even their core audience, don't ever post a single comment, on anything, let alone on the music site. i don't have any proof of that statement except that i know they've started using community co-ordinator's to go below the line and try and make the debates more interesting and productive.
the reality is that most commenters just want to say whatever three opinions they have about something and get angry about them if at all possible, for whatever modern-day substitute for counselling or general stimulation it offers.

xpost Speaking seriously - as someone who is white, middle aged, likes guitar music best, and writes about music for the Guardian – it does sometimes concern me that print coverage is given to music that most of the print readership are not going to care about for a second. For so long, print was about chasing the youth, and it seems there's still a lot of that, even though the youth have completely given up on print. I'm among the oldest of the regular music writers, and I know I'm a decade younger than the average age of a print reader. These days the people writing the music coverage are a great deal younger than most of the people reading it.
― Manfred Mann meets Man Parrish (ithappens), Friday, 14 December 2012 13:19 (eleven years ago) link
there's a bit of a problem whereby a lot of people who like non-rock music don't necessarily like reading about it.
― Heterocyclic ring ring (LocalGarda), Friday, 14 December 2012 13:27 (eleven years ago) link
I'm not sure how much of that older print readership overlaps with the angry comments box dudes though? I wonder how much of that print readership would even care that much if you blanketed the section with bands like Django Django or Tame Impala, who aren't going to be any great mystery to older readers.
I mean generally speaking there just aren't as many of those kinds of acts around any more, relative to 10 or 15 years ago. So you either up the amount of classical or jazz content or start doing a lot of Mojo-style heritage writing.
But given the print readership is a small proportion of the overall readership these days you'd end up with a pretty artificially skewed editorial line.
― Matt DC, Friday, 14 December 2012 13:36 (eleven years ago) link
xp another problem is that they might want to read about that music but not in a national newspaper. non-rock music coverage developed in specialist mags for years, then online thru all kinds of outlets. more recently you have a situation where a national newspaper appears unrivalled (to other newspapers) in its coverage or even compared to floundering mags like NME who presumably don't get quite as much comment-hate for their lists tho perhaps still a reasonable amount (regardless of what's actually on the lists).
