here's nothing wrong with admiring, or, enjoying someone's work. That's something i totally accept. The attitude Lady Deviance describes above is what makes them unbearable.

It actually goes both ways though, I think. There are the people who find it incredibly difficult to accept that people can dislike something that they like and then there are those who find it utterly impossible to accept that anyone can like or even love what they are not very fond of. I don't think it's 'stanning' or 'antistanning' exactly, but more that some people just aren't very good at accepting that others can feel differently about a work and that it's okay for them to feel that way.
More often than not, I think people get offended because those who are not particularly pleased about something tend to be very harsh in their wording which leads to disagreements/fighting which then lead to the Trash Can. But that's just how I see it.
And about Rock'n'Roll Circus... I don't think it was ever intended for it to be a "London-ish" album. At least, I don't recall her ever saying that she wanted to give off a London-feel with it, just that she wanted to record there because she felt that it was a darker atmosphere to record in as opposed to LA or Hawaii in some interview she did.
To quote from Misa-chan's translation of the May bea's Up:

“The reason why I chose to do the recording in London this time was because I wanted to make an album in a closed-off environment, sort of like a place where sunlight doesn’t reach. The songs this time are like me. They’re not liberal and open-minded. The songs which I’ve always made often share the same views and ideas as the listener, but this time, they’re more like shouts and prayers from my individual innermost self. With this image, I’ve probably gotten closer to how I was like inside when I first debuted. What I do in America has always been liberal and open, so that’s why I chose London this time instead.”

Where did all of the Rock'n'Roll Circus hate come from anyway? I thought the album was pretty well received for the most part but maybe it's just the people who dislike it that are being vocal about it.
