I agree with that, though a website has no problem with a page count.
There is a point where people stop reading though. It really depends on
who your market is.
If you are catering to
music enthusiasts (general populace)
electronic music listeners
music geeks (eg - people who get cd and vinyl of everything)
music makers (generally members of all three previous groups)
They're all going to want different things from a review.
Personally, I'm sick of those 'sassy' reviews things like Vice give. The
"in your face" approach to writing gets tired. Fast. It's like *X-Treme
Music Reviews* or something. It's a shtick.
