But you just said what she's critiquing!

There isn't one drop of irony in Oomori's music. Everything is genuine. Well, okay, maybe the first two tracks on the new album are a little ironic. But to me, they're more of a lampshade, or a "look what COULD be done using these sounds" than a more common, detachment for show. That's what I think Oomori's critique is: "normal pop is a waste of time, this is what pop should be." Its not supposed to be some Spaceballs, Saturday Night parody.
