He very suddenly passed away this year at only 51. I went down the rabbit hole reading his obituary's and discovered there's a Go Fund Me page for his family which was worth a donation.
ps. You must read his review of The Enemy which was brutal.

Yes. The thing about Neil is that although he was unafraid to give stuff that he thought deserved it both barrels with no apologies he was also capable of testing himself, changing his mind and admitting that he had been wrong. Mainly though - he just absolutely loved musicand was devstratingly insightful and fucking funny with it.
I honestly don't think of the coat-downs when I think about his writing or his time on the amazing Chart Music podcast. https://chartmusiccouk.wordpress.com/
This is great: Neil's guide to being a critic.

Holy shit, that Neil Kulkarni bloke sure can dish out some trenchant criticism, bravo.
I was always pretty meh about Oasis, but now that I've taken in that epic shitcanning, I concur with Neil; he's crystallised my opinion of them, a bit like when a supercooled liquid instantly freezes in response to a slight disturbance.
Does he do political commentary? He's great!
