Anthony Fantano's """opinion""" confirmed literal fucking rotting garbage. I have never seen someone be so wrong in my life.
>>64811220
These days, he'll just try to appear as edgy and contrarian as he can be.
How can that faggot give BP a 9 and TCIA a fucking 5
Does he realizes what a fucking fanboy he is
>>64811255
?? RH got an 8
james blake is just peter gabriel for millennials
I used to respect him for speaking his mind, but now I'm just starting to think he has no clue what he's talking about
>>64811328
Peter Gabriel is great, so there's not any problem with that
>>64811331
Guessing this is your first or second year on here
Yeah he's clueless
>>64811356
Guessing your third year here
Fantano is right, this album is trash.
>>64811356
nah this is my fourth year unfortunately
actually 5th but I don't count lurking
I like the guy, but his opinions really are shitty.No real reason to care though.
>>64811391
How is it trash?
He's a douche and only likes edgy music
why does he like the meme rap so much?
the album sucked balls familia
>>64811467
>bon iver
>good
?
>>64811502
he is, now go fap to michael gira
Who the fuck doesn't like points?
>>64811467
he gave bon iver a 6?
>>64811602
wew lad nice post
He gave S/T and Overgrown 7s and this a 5, Fantano confirmed trash
But the album is shit. 5/10 is way too generous desu.
>>64811548
Yeah seriously. I don't know why he singled out points.

Yeah, you didn't really grow out of the whole fantano thing until you accept the subjectivity of the whole thing and don't get upset because he liked and album you don't like or the other way around.
>>64811220
He's right
>>64811220
>Least Fav Track: Points
He needs his ears checked
This was a really bad review, but no pile of shit could ever top the absolute disgustingness that was the Oblivion Access review. That's the only positive I see here.

I both thoroughly enjoy this album and understand and respect his opinion of it

I want this meme to end. When will somebody who knows at least basic music theory make a YT channel? This review is garbage on so many levels

He literally didn't do the BARE MINIMUM research to find out what "Put That Away" is about.
>>64811220
So what if his opinion is garbage? This entire board consists of garbage opinions but we hang around anyway
the album wasn't that good though... It was like, average at best.
>>64811852
Neither did I

what's it about?

I was listening to it last night and I think is a very good album. Feels like it's to long but it's supposed to be analysed like that

Yeah but we don't/can't parade about like prancing royalty with dicks up our ass acting like we're the rightest people in the fucking universe

>>64811879
>>64811898
It's about how Blake went to drugs and he's trying to will himself to drop them and keep making music.
This was in the HUGE Guardian interview with him along with other sources.
Not my fault you're fucking 18 year olds who don't research shit.

he gave Vektor a good score though
>>64811220
This is another case of Fantano's mood biasing his reaction to an album.
>>64812013
He's not wrong though. Same goes for films, if you have to ask a director to explain something that happened in a movie then they failed their job.

>He's not wrong though. Same goes for films, if you have to ask a director to explain something that happened in a movie then they failed their job.
Here's the thing: it's not that the song didn't tell you that, it's that it was applicable to anything. It COULD be a phone, it COULD be a joint. Just like all the shit in Blackstar.
Just because an artist tried to make a song universal instead of hyper-specific does not make it a failure, you ABSOLUTELY CLUELESS FUCKING KID.

>>64812089
>Just because an artist tried to make a song universal instead of hyper-specific does not make it a failure
I agree 100% with this. But you insinuated Fantano was wrong for not getting what it was really about, which contradicts the statement that I'm quoting from you in this post.
>you ABSOLUTELY CLUELESS FUCKING KID.
Look, I love this album. But you're coming off as a assblasted kid who's mad that some reviewer has a different opinion than you, in which case I can't take anything you say seriously anymore.
Go outside anon.
>>64812094
Yes, the board with the most uneducated, complacent, insecure music consumers on the Internet.
I really can't imagine getting angry because someone doesn't like some generic r&b artist who makes music for people who wouldn't bother to look for better music that certainly exists out there if they were forced to.
>>64812124
If you've ever actually analysed his language and behavior in his reviews, he's a very stuck up cunt. Actually, just go look at his 'I'm just a normal guy' video for the most undisguised humble brag ever.
>>64812118
Would you agree or disagree with the notion that you think you're better than me for vocalizing this supposed meta?

I'm mad because Fantanodrones are going to honestly believe this review, when it's an incredibly poorly made review.
>>64812079
Yeah the video
>>64812207
Can somebody who isn't on drugs explain what the fuck this post even means
>>64811262
Not that I give a fuck about him, but he's right. If you seriously enjoy the colour in anything you should kys. It's for little babby boys that are still pandering to their Ex that left 3 years ago; writing songs in hope of seeing her just one more time.
LAME AS FUCK
>>64811424
If he wanted to make better music he should have stuck to what he did on 200 press and gone on from there. He's been whining about the same shit since the s/t album and tha came out 5 years ago now, come on mate. I'm a britfag so normally I'd say it's good simply to fuck with all the yanks on here, but it's simply too boring to lie about.
>>64812237
How about you talk about the music, instead of lame ass stereotypes and buzzwords?
>>64812234
Word
>>64812175
Maybe it's just my autism, but I just see a rotund bald man giving his opinion on music. Sorry for not analysing his body language deeply enough to realise that he's actually a cunt who wants to convert everyone to his way of thinking.
>>64812203
Agree
Attributing value to art via a numerical system is stupid anyway, and should only be used for vague, subjective organization reasons.
>>64812230
most of these fantanodrones are ironic shitposters that are parrotting his opinions as fact just to bait you newfags that are so insecure in your own judgement
god this board is fucking horrible
>>64812275
It's alright dude, it's good that you haven't made my mistake of caring too much about internet bullshit
5 and 9 are literally the perfect scores for those albums
I might have given Blake a 6 because I'm a huge fan but seriously it was a bad album
>>64812275
I feel like you would be analyzing his body language more if you were autistic and not the other way around
>>64811328
if you are under the age of 30 you are a millenial and if you are 30 years old and browsing /mu/ then something went seriously wrong somewhere in your life.
>>64812317
Who the fuck are you replying to though
maybe if fantano's marriage wasnt going so well he'd have given it a light 9
>>64812329
Why did you feel the need to make this post
>>64812322
But actually autists can't read body language, that's a symptom.
>>64812299
Is that why the RYM scores always rise/fall depending on his reviews?
>>64812253
There's nothing to talk about. Not gonna waste my time on absolute garbage .. maybe in your next life you might have better taste but I wouldn't get my hopes up if i was u

I'm 24 and I still don't understand your point but ok
>>64813121
just havin a laugh mate
>>64813172
oh, alright
I agree with most of his points.
It feels unfinished and incohesive, which to me is its greatest flaw. I do for the most part like the sound of it though, it's not completely unimaginative, and some songs are really quite good. I think it's important to remember that fantano puts a lot of weight on how it functions as an album, and while there is good material on here, it's drowned out by its surroundings, and could probably be brought out better if he just polished it up and gave it more focus.
>>64813022
I don't care about them, but clearly if after a negative/positive review the score goes down/up...
>>64811776

he literally panned one of beyonce's writers, someone he lauded
james blake's songs flow better, drift beyond pop into experimental territory, and are some of the lushest production you will ever hear
this is anthony being a baby. i can't even ironically care what he says anymore. i won't watch him for a long time
>>64813121
You're naive
>he literally panned one of beyonce's writers, someone he lauded
yes? is there a problem here? two different albums, and fantano liked the earlier james blake albums
>james blake's songs flow better, drift beyond pop into experimental territory, and are some of the lushest production you will ever hear
these are your subjective opinions. in fact i'd say you are clueless fucking pleb if you think this album has particularly lush production. but that's just my opinion
>this is anthony being a baby. i can't even ironically care what he says anymore. i won't watch him for a long time
it's beyond ironic that the only baby here is you
if you get the opportunity you should end yourself
>>64811220
Holy shit.
I don't hate Fantano, and he seems like a decent guy, but how the fuck do you shit the bed this hard?
I'm not even angry about the score, if he didn't like it, he didn't like it, but he said NOTHING in the review of any substance or value. He complains about how the lyrics were whiny, despite not having looked into or understood them at all. He claims that songs seem unpolished or obnoxious without going into depth about why it feels like that.
He is essentially just saying "This song was good, this song was obnoxious, this song was boring", and as an opinion that is fine, but as a critical opinion in the form of a monetized review those opinions are absolutely useless, because he doesn't back them up with reasoning, or introspection, or just any form of musical lingo. This is the epitome of a useless review. It says nothing about the album, except that he thought it was a mixed bag.
>>64811220
I don't disagree. It's a boring fucking album
desu the album is a 5/10, but then again so are 60%~ of albums released according to my book so hmm
too bad critics use a 7/10-10/10 scale
>>64814622
hi anthony
>>64812094
Y'see, censoring yourself on 4chan of all places just makes you look like a fucking preteen faggot.
>>64814750
agreed. most of his reviews have very little substance.
>bawwww his opinion is wrong
This album was a masterpiece. Im not even memeing. I don't care that Fantano gave it a 5 because as he says constantly ITS JUST HIS OPINION. But this is one of the biggest discrepancies between his and my opinion I've ever seen. The nuances and mood and journey throughout this album is fantastic, my AOTY next to Sturgill Simpson's, maybe on par with it
>>64814856
>too bad critics use a 7/10-10/10 scale
kek this is pretty accurate. I agree with all your sentiments, though I'm just now listening to the album so far. Kinda disjointed with some good songs sprinkled in. His s/t is still his best
>yfw there are now more dislikes than likes
The problem is he keeps covering all this genres that he clearly doesn't like or lost interest a while ago. He should stick with Hip Hop that's the only thing he cares about now a days.
>>64814275
