I don’t think there’s any need for that kind of talk. Monkey hasn’t said anything objectionable. It’s not like he’s that much younger than some of us, too. (And wait, “y’all”? Are you from Alabama?)

Well that seemed unnecessary

Y'all need to excuse Monkey for being a kid around the adults sharing his opinion about scoring albums. Give us all a good break.

for example Amon Amarth's "With Oden on our side". It's an album that I don't listen to anymore but it had a HUGE impact on me as a teenager

A 10 for me is also something that impacted my musical journey

few myself even if I think that it’s justified for many more albums. I’ve hovered around 50 10s for a while (including non-MS votes), which accounts for something like <0.5% of my total listening.

I don't see a 10 as "perfect in everyway", but more as in "I couldn't find anything to change". Doesn't necessarily mean it's "perfect", but I wouldn't know how to make it better myself.
