| "Stylus, conceived in 2001 by Adam Blackbourn and Todd Burns, was created with the hope of bettering the relationship between reviewer and reader. Other websites have, in the past, built a wall between reviewer and reader: reviewer proclaims website�s thoughts from on high, reader looks at it and, devoid of any other option, scrolls on. Rather than create a site that once again reviews music mechanically - churning out the �Stylus viewpoint� day after day - we offer up the viewpoint of the particular writer. Our reviewers are individuals, and they don�t necessarily feel the same way about each release. That is why we allow each reviewer on the site the chance to write about the reviews of the day that they may not agree with or support" |
