I grew up on AM Top 40.  So, my tastes remain broad.  I read a ton of reviews by critics I have been reading for ages (Christgau) and others for a decade (Sheffield), and many more in between.  I don't agree with half of their recommendations.  They love stuff I hate, and I love stuff they hate.
In the end, you have to follow your own ears.  The haters will always be lurking.  But when it comes to listening to music, I don't follow anybody.
