Then don't go to it?

>>64345689
I would love to hear you try to actually explain why this "aggravates" you. My sides are ready.
>>
>>64345689
talk shit, post your favorite albums OP

I love how Pitchfork is just blatantly trying to be Buzzfeed with this article. Truly amazing music journalism.

I'm surprised that they gave the bottom one a higher score since his skin looks darker in the top one

Things were never this bad before. Say what you want about these guys, but you could take a college course on the way the headlines are forced to be now.

o boy i am laffin

>>64345731
I'm not OP, but giving something a shit review when it comes out then retroactively upping it once it becomes popular is lame.
>>
>>64345898

is it possible that the person's opinion changed on it over time?

is it possible that two different writers wrote the articles?

have you ever changed your mind on any artwork ever?
>>
>>64345898
j dilla was already extremely popular. What happened is... two different writers.

Lemonade is getting at least a 9.1 BNM
>>
>>64345898
7.9 isnt a shit score

pitchfork is bad but not for this

>>64345702
Not OP but can't fucking stand when people use an unnecessary question mark like that.
You're writing looks condescending and bitchy because you are.
>>
>>64345983
Shut the fuck up?
>>
>>64345917
>>64345937
sort of

but pitchfork also agrees on the significance of an album collectively and then assigns the writer who can best articulate that the task of the actual review.

the fact is that albums must constantly be reevaluated for their significance and that the reaction you get when an album comes out does not at all guarantee its legacy
>>
>>64345983
Do you think I actually give a shit?

It's actually pretty funny you're so easily triggered.
>>
>>64345983
Sorry master

xD
>>
>>64345983
You seem to have anger management issues?
>>
>>64346012
Can't stand when people use "actually pretty" right next to each other as two adjectives.
You're writing looks cluttered and unintelligent becuase you are.
>>
>>64345983

>>64345983
i don't see a problem?

If you shitpost like OP just did you deserve to be talked to condescendingly like an idiot

>You're

subtle, like it
>>
>>64345848
I dunno, they had some shitty articles before this

I gave up on their reviews a while ago (it's not a bad place to see what albums are coming out, but giving a fuck about what they actually think is silly), but I knew their news was trash too when they wrote an article about Drake using a lint roller at a basketball game. Fucking pathetic.

Literal autism.

who the fuck gave donuts a 7.9 the fucking nerve of pitchfork writers
>>
this is a website which rated "donuts" by j dilla lower than the new kevin gates album

wow

P4K is the musical incarnation of Buzzfeed. Compulsive click-bait that's impossible to ignore, disgustingly corporate and money-motivated, impossible to take seriously - they're a bane on music journalism. There are plenty of other music sites that have credible, individualistic views which divert from the P4K norm, effectively invalidating them all. Despite this I still check their homepage over and over, fuck me.
>>
>>64345810
I'll be surprised if it's anything lower than 9.5
>>
>>64346705

Can you recommend any? I've been trying to get away from Pitchfork since last year.
>>
p4k was decent at first, then they went downhill in 2003 with BNM. Then Condé Nast

#musicgate when?

>>64346787
The Quietus, CoS, Exclaim.ca, TMT (sometimes), The Wire, Under the Radar

Avoid: Uncut, Q, Rollingstone, P4K, NME, Guardian, Mojo
>>
>>64345810
there is literally no doubt that it will happen

Was Pitchfork quietly bought by Gawker (before they lost in trial to Hulk Hogan of course)?

the sentence meant 'it is, in fact, pretty funny'
my dude wasn't using it as an adjective
go home kid

>>64346990
I like this. TMT is very funny in my book.
