yeah i'm not a fan of these time chart things, the layout is cool and the design is wicked. but i don't agree with most of it.

the whole point about a timeline is to visually connect information. thats it. of course its subject to interpretation and opinion. its not meant to be the "feel good" guide or encyclopedia britannica for the sound.
the most important aspect of things like this is to give newcomers and researchers/journalists a clear idea of the fabric of the sound and a starting point. that chart does it well, and the next chart will do it even better.

2004 - AMAZING
2005 - GREAT
2006 - GOOD
2007 - CRAP
2008 - FOR FUCKS SAKE
2009 - GIANT BLOODCLOT PARR

you say its subject to interpretation and opinion, yet in the next breath say it provides a clear idea of the 'fabric' of the sound.

well which is it ? clear or subject to interpretation cos to my mid you cant have it both ways.

the whole point of a time line is to imply some sort of linearity, a continuum of sorts but reality just doesnt work that way. Timelines are generally too simplistic and like you say dumbed down for the ignorant, remembering of course that truth and reality is only ones considered opinion, not fact!

FWIW i have little faith that the next chart will do it even better either. If it could, you would be able to extrapolate current trends to make predictions. So if you're not prepared to put your arse on the line and say whats next in line then it's just some guy chatting breeze to increase his own stock and market a product
