Music Critic Score
How the Music Critic Score works
It’s always tempting for musicians to overplay their strengths. The fast-fingered guitarist has to fight the urge to let every lick rip. The big-voiced diva must struggle to curb her desire to shout every phrase to the rooftops. With the Goo Goo Dolls, it’s a knack for uplifting choruses that provides their ironic downfall.
