Mission Statement

AudioSuede, first founded at the beginning of 2010, is a site dedicated to the love and appreciation of music, to informing the masses of news and events that matter, and to exemplifying integrity within the fields of music criticism and music journalism.

Our Mission Statement:

- Our opinions are based on reasoned, logical arguments which we can knowledgably provide in a clear and understandable fashion. However, our opinions are just that: Opinions. No one is more aware of that than we are, and we welcome dissenting opinions from anyone, anywhere, anytime.

- We do not, under any circumstances, judge any music based on nothing but our biases. We believe there is a criterion for what makes good music and what makes bad music, and if we think we might be biased, we will be wholly up front with that information so the reader can make up his or her own mind.

-It’s not about us, it’s about the music.

-We challenge our readers to weigh every point made before claiming some sort of fault in our reasoning. That way, if you still think we’re wrong, at least you can back up your assertion.

That said, we love and welcome any and all readers who might find us, and we hope that this site is as fun for you to read as it is for us to make.
