anco has been shit for a while and shitfork continued to hype them. theybve finally came to their senses.
holy shit
BTFO
Let's see where this is in a week. I wonder if it'll go sub 3.0
Do you guys actually think this album is above a 6?
That hurt my soul and I haven't even listened to it yet.
No.
Fucking.
Way.
I was here four years ago for Centipede Hz. I never thought it would get any lower than 7.4 Holy shit I feel so empty inside.
>>62603229
YEah
LOL ANCO BTFO
CANT BELIEVE SOME OF YOU IDIOTS WERE CALLING THIS A 10
>>62603244
Christ, has it really been four years?

What the shit this album was mediocre as fuck is everyone here an Anco yes man? This is probably their least interesting output, worse than centipede.
Reading this review reminds me of that ultra pretentious Death Grips eulogy that one guy wrote where he declared "I guess deep down I was waiting for Death Grips to end all along!"
Both articles undergo the same mental gymnastics masturbation whilst assuming that they are stating something of substance.
And anons on here claim Fantano is a bad music reviewer. This isn't about disagreeing with the score, but to how they reach that conclusion.

>>62603071
It's a sensible score. The album is a decent pop album but it doesn't feel like a complete Animal Collective record. FloriDada isn't a strong opener, while even Centipede Hz had a great opener with Moonjock. There are some catchy songs, but there's nothing on the album I can see myself listening to or caring about a month from now.

Imagine if Fantano gives this an 8? Then what will /mu/ do?
>the only listenable AnCo album without LOLSOEXPERIMENTAL XDDD
>gets panned af
Pitchfork is gay
>>62603511
Fuck I'm retarded. It's been a long day
I actually don't even love the album but the review is a joke. It's pretty much just a career retrospective and analyzation of AnCo's place in the "indie-sphere" and it barely touches upon the actual music. Reviews preoccupied with formalism are irrelevant (rightfully so imo) but this college thesis type of writing is absurd. It's a lot of words not actually saying anything...
FANTANO PLS I NEED TO KNOW IF ITS GOOD
Literally every song sounded the same... their needed to be a balance. The tempo was the same through out which made it boring very easily. They needed more diversity so the pop songs could shine.
>"The album's best songs—"Golden Gal," "Recycling"—aren't just highlights, they're breathers."

Anco are officially in their "greatest hits" phase.
The whole number rating scale to determine whether an album is "good" or "bad" is ridiculous anyway. Especially when you give Shit HZ a 7.4 and this a 6.2

im an anco stan and i even agree the album wasnt that good, cmon guys
>>62603071
Is it common for Pitchfork to review records before they're officially released? Given how negative the tone of the review is, it seems like an intentionally low blow. Seems like Pitchfork is starting to really distance themselves from AnCo.
Question for you conspiracy theorists:
What exactly does p4k have to gain from panning the most successful indie pop group of all time?
This sounds like of an Of Montreal album for some reason
>>62603720
it's a terrible opener. great track! but terrible opener.

It's, at the VERY least, better than Moonjock. I personally see Floridada as a slightly worse version of Leaf House but your mileage may vary.
This album is pretty mediocre, but c'mon its fuckin p4k lol. Who cares.
Then again, I'm a huge Autechre fan so I've become accustomed to sub-par scores to just ignore and laugh at.
Obviously p4k rated this low because the whole band is white.
Prove me wrong, faggots.
Bagels In Kiev is the best track.
and to think I was going to give it a listen. It just isn't worth it
>all this assmad
>all these YouTube tier posts
Fucking manbabbies. First of all its just one mans opinion, flipping out over a p4k review or fantano is stupid. Just because they use big dick college words and don't shut the hell up doesn't make their opinion final on the matter.

Maybe this will be a wake up call for some of you stupid fucks who follow this place religiously. Honestly, any review that has these sentences placed together for any respected artist...
"Modern guys seeking a spiritual basement deep below the civilized self.
Like most seekers, they get made fun of a lot."
should just fuck right off. Why are you guys still hanging onto this thing?
>>62603741
They're obviously trying to change their public image and distance themselves from their old indie roots, instead embracing more popular music. It is an organization after all, they don't have an obligation to "truth" they need to stay relevant and expand their profitability. The saddest part is how seriously people take their scores
>>62603686
Not so much the score, m8. Really just this: >>62603696
>>62603872
are you actually implying the p4k score isn't going to change the perception of the album
Reminder p4k has always been shit
>>62603876
But PW is a pop album.
>>62603876
Do you think Anco isn't pop?
>ABLOO KANYE GOT 9 AND THIS GOT 6?
You sound dumb anon and very salty.
>>62603872
>it's one man's opinion

also the one guy who wrote the review had to have been retarded because the review itself is shit too, just whingeing on about nothing and providing no actual criticism
>>62603899
>>62603900
It's still to out there for normies and they became pop before it was cool to p4k and trendy faggots
>>62603888
But you took their scores just as seriously when they were praising the bands you supported, or ushering out "truths"
>obligatory nice trips though i think youre retarded
>p4k gives TLOP 9.0
>most have gave it a 5-6/10
>p4k gives PW a fucking 6.2
>most have it a 8-9/10
What is going on?
because it's no longer cool or profitable for them to support music that isn't from established top 40 artists or those who are plugged by said artists
>>62603454
>LP9 will be worse than Pablo Honey
>>62603849
Leaf House is way better, as in it's not even close. FloriDada is a catchy song but it doesn't blow you away by its sound at all like Leaf House, which is unlike anything else. Moonjock isn't perfect and not close to Leaf House, but it's got something to it.
Just relisten to them and tell me Moonjock isn't better:

This is pretty true. People always point out that Pitchfork has changed, and that's accurate, but they fail to acknowledge that Pitchfork's core demo - urban middle class young twentysomethings - are into different stuff now than those of us who are older were into ten years ago. Pitchfork's demo hasn't changed, but the people who were once in that demo aren't anymore.
>>62603899
>>62603900
PW is pop but it's rather uncompromising pop.
>>62603940
What about that post is retarded? I didn't even say what they were doing was wrong. Every single publication/company is the exact same thing, they are trying to change their core demographic to a wider audience. Indie music isn't as profitable as Top billboard hits

Honestly I'm fucking tired of AnCo anyways. In truth, they are too white. It's time for music to evolve. Enough of the unbearable whiteness that is indie music and make way for modern, culturally enriched and politically driven music. Think big. Think Drake. Think Young Thug. Think Kanye pushing boundaries rather than falling back on white memes. It's long overdue for the fall of white americana and time for us to accept and observe, but not partake - appropriation is not the future of music, and neither are whites.

Nah we just gotta wait for the whites to hijack black culture, AKA Blues, Rock and Roll, Disco, Early house music, eventually Hip Hop and R&B
What I can't understand is that P4K gave the new DIIV album an 8 compared to this 6. Even if AC jumped the shark, are they honestly worse than that meme band
Suddenly I'm disinterested in this album.
>>62604062
It's so amazing how whites are pulling the race card now. Black culture in music is very popular right now big whoopie shit, there's no conspiracy go to bed.
As much as i think p4k is shit, i think this patricular review did justice. Although it talks more about anco's past 'image' and 'hype' rather than music itself but all of that makrs sense.
To be honest, I don't feel anco is more serious about their art in this album than they were in hcti and mpp
>>62603071
looks like there's a new king of electronic pop...
>>62604062
>Think big. Think black. Think black. Think black.
>>62603940
Not that anon, but whose to say that they did?
I've never taken P4k seriously, even when they praised bands I like. Their HCTI review is probably one of the most embarrassing things I've ever read - even if it was "approved" with an 8.6. People can be informed by something called "personal taste" and not by publications looking to commodify the nest trend.
>>62603602

>Although it talks more about anco's past 'image' and 'hype' rather than music itself but all of that makrs sense.
how does that make sense at all? your post is the only thing that makes even less sense.
>>62603071
The sad thing is, while I'm trying my absolute hardest not to let this review get to me - it does. Because I love Animal Collective, and I wanted to love this new album so much. But as much as I hate it, I really kind of agree with this review - it echoes so many of my thoughts that I didn't want to admit. This album just didn't tug at my emotions like SJ, MPP, Feels, ST, etc. did. In fact, it probably did even less so than CHz, which was also a big disappointment. I'm not sure what's a worse thought - that AnCo have truly lost their creative, child-like, adventurous luster and have turned into this derivative, contrived shell of their former greatness, or it's my problem and I just truly don't connect with the band that (as trite as it sounds) has been such an important part of my life. I'm 23, and I truly grew up with this band, so many of my memories are connected to their music. And even though their still creating music, it has lost its magic. It's honestly kind of devastating.
>>62604194
Then there would be no more reviews at all. After all, mostly whites review music and remember the word of P4K's lord and savior, "Whites aren't allowed to rate hip hop". Without white music, P4K would literally cease to exist.
>they don't like what I like!!

>>62603244
Pitchfork's reviews are agenda driven. They don't really score albums individually so much as as part of greater trends. Even if AnCo had but out their best album here (which they didn't of course not even close) it would have gotten a mediocre score simply because their sound is only becoming more irrelevant with time. They're a relic of the late 00s and nothing more in the eyes of p4k
>>62604230
>this is not pasta
pathetic and impressive, but mostly pathetic
>>62603229
i was giving it a 9.5. p4k doesnt care about music, they care about being in the now and having a good image(kanye>pw, really?).
>somehow worse than CHz
No fucking what Painting With is worse. Not even fucking close
>>62603898
What the fuck
okay reading through this review again, this reviewer is clearly jizzing for some "old AnCo" nostalgia. which is pretty ironic considering the fact that their whole thing is never making the same album twice.
>>62604062
The crazy thing is that could probably be said in today's society and it wouldn't be considered crazy.
This is a joke of a review. When does it actually go into the actual structures of the songs, melodies, the actual details? No it only talks about what Animal Collective were in the past for a majority of the review, then ends it with "They are not as good as they were". No explanation, there is no review going on here.
At least Fagtano actually explains why he likes/dislikes albums
You guys don't actually think this album is on the level of MPP, do you?
This just makes me like the album more because musical Merit is not based on one website
And because pitchfork is almost always wrong.
>>62604370
I don't think anything they put out in the future can ever match up to MPP
>>62604370
no but it's not worse than chz
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0F-4Ae66pQg
if you fags wonder what's wrong with AnCo than watch this video
Some dude on the AnCo made great point:
Thoroughly confused in his comparison of Peter Pan as the character narrating "My Girls," isn't Peter Pan like THOROUGHLY THE OPPOSITE of the narrator? "to provide for mine who ask" its literally about becoming an adult and a responsible parent................ I mean am I missing something?
I think it's clear p4k is not even giving this a proper review (idgaf the score) because they don't think AnCo is "hip" anymore.
Also, that Nietzche line was terrible
>>62604370
I never really cared for MPP tbqh. SJ is my benchmark and its not SJ good but still good.
>>62604385
THEY WERENT WRONG WHEN THEY MADE RATINGS I AGREED WITH
>>62604316
Yeah dude what a fag for having emotional attachment to music
Who even cares about music anyways dude it's just noise dude
>>62604370
Nah but it's a very good album nonetheless. Not even a huge AnCo guy but I give it around an 8.5
i mean
i agree with the reviewer in that anco back in sung tong/feels/sj days made music that made me feel like i was touching the face of god
there new shit has boingy synths and that weird lyrical style from boys latin. i like the album but theres nothing on it close to the majesty and all encompassing power of songs like people and fireworks lets be real
>>62604370
i think it's really good and one of my favorites, but i don't think it beat mpp. i'd say it edges pretty close.
Remember when /mu/ didn't give a fuck about pitchfork? good times
>>62604442
when was that, exactly?
>>62604370
No but its still good and better than CHz. I'd say it's a good spiritual sequel to MPP
>>62603314

>>62604425
having emotional attachment is one thing, letting fucking pitchfork dictate that attachment is another
KEK What a joke of a review, i'm not even an AnCo fan.
This was SO pretentious, oh my god. Why do we care about p4k, again?

>>62604428
This.
Painting lacks emtion.
Panda influenced too much on this album i think. I hardly hear avey or geo's style
memefork is at it again lads. I honestly have no idea how anyone can think this album is worse than CHZ
>/mu/ will suddenly hate anco/pw the next day
I often read or hear the sentiment that AC have lost their magic, as if this is some truth that everybody senses but nobody wants to expose. If you asked the AC dudes themselves, I'm sure they would tell you that their recent albums are conscious decisions to get away from that style. It's clear that Painting With is just an energetic little ball of songs that isn't meant to be compared to their older stuff. It's unfortunate that people will inevitably do this and feel that the new stuff is inferior. I guess it takes some sort of willpower to not make these comparisons however...

This is nearly as bad as their review of "The Fragile".
I just don't understand what he didn't like about the album sonically if if he also believes that PBear is "making some of his most interesting solo material at the moment. " I mean, it's clear this album was heavily influenced by PBvsGR.

LEL DAE REMEMBER OLD ANCO XD: The Review
>>62604442
>pre fantasy 10/10
> 08/09
>literally just metal threads
No thanks.
And you're getting all butthurt because they gave a mediocre review to a band they've circle jerked for over a decade even when other publications mocked them.
The album does nothing new. The band has stopped progressing. It took them 4 years to essentially make an album version of all the ADHD tracks on Centipede. The voices are all just rips of stuff Panda did on his last album. They use the same hiccuped effect on so many parts it's done to death.
The album has no pacing. It's all just ADHD paced and sounds like shit little kids would jump up and down to.
Centipede Hz at least had pacing. They tried new things, Deak lead vocals, baritone guitar riffs.
What made the band exciting is that with every album they did completely new things and progressed. Since MPP they've done little of that. Centipede did it but was a mess. This is just a rehash of old stuff done at an annoyingly fast-paced rate.
Whining about P4k not liking the band when for literally over a decade they were the ones circle jerking them as relentlessly hard as possible when others were mocking them.
"They're not cool now so they;re changing their image." Yeah no. That's retard logic. They gave Panda an amazing score last year, AOTY list placement, SOTY list placement, booked him of their festival, Booked Avey's band in 2014 for their festival.

not gonna lie i use to fucking love pitchfork, but it's pretty obvious their direction has changed with the market. pitchfork wants to be rolling stone and rolling stone wants to be pitchfork. when Pitchfork Advance ended and The Pitch took it's place it was obvious. remove it from your bookmarks
>>62603071
FUCK I WAS ABOUT TO LISTEN TO IT TONIGHT. I HAVE ZERO CHANCE OF ENJOYING NOW.
>>62604644
every band gets shit
especially when they get afraid to break from their tradition, or they get successful and beholder to a fanbase, or they get old, or all three.
its true that AC lasted a lot longer than most.
panda solo is the only way he can unshackle from expectations and be fearless, which is essential for an artist.

i know this is b8 but you know that people who might've enjoyed the album will go to p4k first and say "Oh no! it's shit! better not listen to it." i did the same thing for chz and then when it actually clicked i liked it a lot.

>pulling the race card
The race card never existed, that's a term invented by white racists to shut down the arguments of oppressed minorities.
Watch how /mu/ will hate this but when Fantano gives it a good review (he even fucking liked Lying In The Grass ffs) everyone will debate if it's good or bad

holy shit dude, this was really well put. better than i could've said it and then quote from carrots definitely solidified it.
>>62604648
why are you so concerned with pace?
what are you even talking about?
>What did he mean by this?
>>62604543
Screencaping this
you guys realize that almost everytime pitchfork pans an album, they never review another album by that band well again?
they ride the wave, and when the wave ends they look for the next one
>>62604665
>/mu/
>music
>posts lyrics like they mean anything abstracted from how they are meant to be experienced in a song
Also, just because those AnCo lyrics use a variety of pretty words in complete sentences doesn't make them instantly meritorious. They're still far from real literary worth.
>>62604648
Dude did you even listen to it? It sounds nothing like Panda's solo stuff or has any of the same "hiccuped effects." Where the fuck did you get this from?
>>62604706
you can't tell me boys latin is better than any of these songs. more derivative and more repetitive.
>>62604759
>Watch how /mu/ will hate this
But /mu/ loves this you retard
I MISS THE OLD ANCO.MP3
>>62604769
Need got nostalgia glasses on
>>62604748
Awful taste. You're opinions couldn't be more wrong.
>>62604781
All these songs are Boys Ltin pt 2 though. How can it be derivative if it did it first?
Pitchfork is a testament to quality always.
>>62604120
WHAT
>>62604778
that's a leonard cohen song
someone pls give me a download link, my daughter said she will cut my throat in my sleep if she dont listen to the album tonight. im really worried /mu/. help
>>62604748
>Danse and Hollinn last
Vertical is the best track
>>62604809
Point stands. Leonard Cohen obviously means for you to listen to those words as backed my music.
>>62604803
You didn't listen to the album did you?
>>62604778
>They're still far from real literary worth.
this is the best part of those troll images
getting retards like you to say stupid shit like this about a renowned poet like leonard cohen because you need to defend pitchfork scores
>>62604543
Fucking beautiful
Can you imagine if AnCo was a bunch of black dudes, only 10/10s from P4k
>>62603229
8.5
Kayne gets btfo by anco.. Amazingly lush production, beautiful melodies.. Kanye can't touch this shit
>>62604841
they would have to invent a new rating because 10 would be too low
kanye's album is good u fuks. painting with is a solid 7
>>62604841
They would literally get 9.5 BNM and they would go about how daring it is for a black artist to make this kind of music and how important it is
>>62603258
No one gives 2 fucks about those cucks at pitchfork. Theyre faggots that don't know jackshit about music. I've felt this way since the late 90s.
>>62604821
bruh
https://kat.cr/animal-collective-painting-with-2016-t12083703.html
You guys play the race card even more than /pol/.
The album is a grower, it's not their best but is a good comeback after that shit named Centipede Hz
kiera, if you see this, i hope you get cuck'd
also, someone give me a god damn download link
I think its pretty obvious from this guy's Sung Tongs article that he doesn't have some hateful racist agenda. More just that he liked the band the most in 2004 and now their so far away from that that he has to make a criticism of the album in the context of his nostalgia
>>62604883
o thank you, you save my life. my daughter is smiling, probably
>>62603413
then vote it down and stop complaining faggot
>>62604891
This. First listen it was average but after each listen the rating gets higher and the songs get better
>>62604906
Sounds prevalent for any artist who changes their style, and the fans reaction to it
>7 hours ago
i knew i had to screenshot this
>>62604906
i think it's obvious that no reviewer on p4k picks the score absent the consent of Ryan Schreiber and probably other higher ups
>>62604950
i did anon, i really did
but when you have so many retards that don't know how parent genres work, it gets difficult
The band traded their sequencers and samplers for fucking FL Studio, what did you all expect this was gonna get? Anyone who thinks its above a 7 at most is delusional, its literally less dimensional than even TLOP
>>62604963
Even reddit can see through the bullshit.
>>62604963
too true. not surprising either.
>>62605024
Dont think you know what you're talking about there, they used real expensive modular synths for this album. They always use real samplers and sequencers too, they even recorded it in one of the most famous music studios in California.
>>62604832
>renowned poet Leonard Cohen
By everyone except actual poets? He may write some pretty phrases but he's not someone that will be studied with serious intent, unlike actually renowned poets.
It sounds like a Beach Boys dubstep album yet manages to be even less interesting
>>62603410
good. i hope so
>>62605088
>His father's will provided him with a modest trust income, sufficient to allow him to pursue his literary ambitions for the time, and The Spice-Box of Earth was successful in helping to expand the audience for Cohen's poetry, helping him reach out to the poetry scene in Canada, outside the confines of McGill University. The book also helped Cohen gain critical recognition as an important new voice in Canadian poetry. One of Cohen's biographers, Ira Nadel, stated that "reaction to the finished book was enthusiastic and admiring.... The critic Robert Weaver found it powerful and declared that Cohen was 'probably the best young poet in English Canada right now.'"
you're a fucking idiot
stick to listening to meme rap

Yea I always hated pitchfork for this. They've been doing this for a long time too. Pretentious, cringey fucking bullshit that barely has any insight on the actual music.
Check out their Kid A review from 2000. It's fucking godawfully pretentious

>>62605340
why do so many blacks not like trump's policy on illegals, they only hurt the black community
>>62604504
The thing that got him emotional wasn't pitchforks review, it was self realized. He said he felt AnCo lost their magic as well, and that what got him "devastated"
>>62605407
Everyone make sure to check out this Kid A review. This is quite the find, anon. Riveting stuff. Truly riveting
>>62605407
You don't actually know what the word pretentious means.
>>62603741
White guilt is so hot right now. They've gone full hipster and now hate what other hipsters once loved.
They gain a larger fan base by following the shitty zeitgeist of black good/white bad.
Just fucking imagine if a dude of any other race made tlop. They'd pan it for terrible lyrics and total lack of cohesiveness.
>>62605496
The guy thinks hes such a brilliant writer but yet he writes a high school-tier bullshit review that isn't good prose at all and has nothing to do with Kid A. How is that not pretentious?
>>62605551
because he, himself, hasn't claimed to be a brilliant writer.
>>62605394

>how i lost my boy, how i lost my boy, how i lost my boy, how i lost my boy
>>62605615
Using flowery vocabulary and purple prose is just an implicit way to jack off your writing ego-cock. The review's pretentious, it's shit. You're pretentious, you're shit.
>>62605817
No, it's not. It's just another way to express yourself, doesn't claim to be more 'brilliant' than anything else.
and no i'm not pretentious, you still aren't using that word right...
>>62604112
>>62603866
>>62603611
Because you're a faggot that takes cuck reviews seriously. Grow some balls
>>62604118
Why do you dumbfucks think that a song has to be super cooky and super experimental like older AnCo to be serious artistic music?
>>62604193
Uh no. Anything with songs "featuring" another artist automatically is shit compared to AnCo
>>62605887
I'm not the other guy.
>doesn't claim to be more 'brilliant' than anything else.
Just because purple writing generally doesn't outright say it's superior to the writing of others' doesn't mean that it isn't heavily implied.
>and no i'm not pretentious
Forcing your prescriptive bullshit on internet strangers because you read an infographic on the 'proper' definition of the word 'pretentious' follows the dictionary definition pretty well. I'm sorry if your aspergers prevents you from understanding the subtext in writing.
fagtano is going to rate this higher than TLOP, screencap this, also kanye fucked fantano's mother when he was 9
>>62606051
troll better
>>62604230
It's still really good music man. I just think you're letting expectations from past AnCo albums cloud your view too much. Don't think of it too hard, keep listening, give it time and don't make a solid opinion until you've let it sunk in completely.
Powell is actually one of their best writers and the least SJW of them all. This is just not a good record.
>>62604407
