“Reviews by critics, whatever the art form, are put down all the time. “Useless.” “Pointless.” “Who cares what they think? I can think for myself!” That’s fine. Maybe you’ll finish reading this review of The Monitor by Titus Andronicus and dismiss it. The intention of this review, however, is to persuade you to buy it. No, it’s more than that. It is to persuade you to buy it, persuade others to buy”
“Titus' sophomore record, a sprawling concept album loosely about the U.S. Civil War, is packed with anthems and brimming with energy and ambition.”
