And the World's Most Mean-Spirited Music Critic Award goes to....

Dom Passantino of Stylus magazine. Here's the first sentence of his review of Tori Amos's latest, The Beekeeper:

I'm going to hell anyway, so I may as well come out and say what you’d be thinking if you sat all the way through Tori Amos’ career from Y Kant Tori Read to The Beekeeper: the only way that we’re going to get a good album from her in this day and age is if someone has the decency to abduct and kill her daughter.
Points also for misspelling Beekeeper in the second paragraph, and finally getting to what amounts to quite a flaccid review of the cd in the penultimate paragraph. Keep 'em coming, Dom!
