where were you when lp9 aoty confirmed
Going to give it a solid week before we see some "what went wrong?" threads, fatassano panning it, and then /mu/ turning on it because its a hivemind

if you're implying that's gonna happen because that's what happened with painting with you're wrong. the only positive reaction painting with got here was for less than an hour after its release with a few anons raving about it probably after they only got up to Vertical in the album. Within a day the opinion was more negative than positive. The pitchfork and fantanny reviews made it worse, that's for sure, but the response wasn't nearly as positive

The album is perfect. It won't be panned
>>64707033
How about AOTD?
>>64707500
depends on who you ask
pitchfork gave mbdtf a 10 and i would be very, very surprised if they gave amsp a 10
nah album put me right to sleep
if that was their intent i'll change my score
>>64707718
just because an album is relaxing and low-key doesnt mean its bad.. do you rate ambient music that low? what about things like gsybe?

I'd go femminist for that 2bh
A Moon Shaped Pool has the now noticeably 30 year old band, Radiohead, starved for ideas and doing things by "The Numbers." In a return closer to 2007's In Rainbows than their last record The King of Limbs, Radiohead return to poppier formulas and more tangible grooves with a distinctly lacking energy. There's no song on AMSP with the crispness of "15 Step," yet simultaneously very few moments of true intimacy as they mastered last album in songs like "Codex" and "Give Up the Ghost." The songs are in a vague halfway-point where the band is not really sure where they want to go, other than away from the lackluster reception to their last record. It's unclear if the inclusion of one or more filler tracks ("Desert Island Disk" in particular) and Thom's rather frail and unmoved vocal delivery is representative of artistic choices or aging rockers near the end of their careers. Ultimately, I paid $20 for the 24 bit WAV download and do not regret buying the record: it's more enjoyable music from Radiohead that I did not hear yesterday and, for the first time in a while, is music I can actually talk about with my friends. But I am left with a feeling that after years of waiting, little to nothing of substance came.

>>64707887

AMSP is literally perfect to fall asleep to, and this is in no way bad.
