I don't make it a habit of destroying my friends' dreams with my opinions. After all, I am not the all-knowing arbiter of good taste, so I might absolutely hate someone's recording, but twenty other people might love it.

I try to find some positives in the recording ("Hey, great guitar sound", "I love that studio", "Your engineer is great", etc...).
