Discuss a review. Provide constructive feedback. Talk to the industry.

Personally...

...I have a hard time buying new music from any reviews because I've been burned so many times. It's hard to rely on either one.

As a Baby Boomer classic rock afficianado, I picked up the Who's 'Endless Wire' after either Stereophile or TAS named it the 'Recording of the Month'. I couldn't get into it.

I read or at least peruse the music reviews in TAS, Stereophile, SPIN, Rolling Stone and Paste (the last 3 I share with my teenaged daughter).

Sometimes there can be somewhat of a consensus like with Dylan's 'Modern Times', which is excellent, IMO.

Otherwise, the Paste sampler CD in each issue is a good way to hear new music before I buy.
