Really, I just missed the way we used to grade things back at Evergreen. We'll be adding more icons as needed, so if you have any suggestions, feel free to let us know. And remember, music criticism isn't the fucking WASL.

Nobody ever killed the all-ages music scene in Seattle by taking the WASL! Wait...OK. I'm reaching. But still...GRAAANNDDYYYYRRRAAAWWRR!!!

The letter-grade system is just one more example of a top-down oppressive hierarchy put in place to keep free thinking iconoclasts down. Who's to say that just because I didn't "read" the "lessons" in some "book" that I "failed?"
The Man, that's who.
