Pitchfork Addicts Anonymous (warning: may contain schadenfreude)
-
The thread for predicting scores and talking about that website everybody loves.
-
I also made this thread just so I could post this:
http://pitchfork.com/news/49011-welcome-to-nothing-major/ -
new UMO gets a 7.5-8.0
I personally think it's better than the first, but I can see people thinking the new record is big headed and overly ambitious. -
I give this thread a 6.9
-
I give this thread a 7.4
-
I give this thread a 10.0
-
No, a 10.1
-
I give this thread a 3.3, but much like Pitchfork itself, will probably change it at some time to a 8.4 upon seeing the public's overwhelming positive response to it.
-
I still say there should be debates on national television because of Call Me Maybe claiming spot #29 (or something) on their Top tracks list.
-
The singles and the Clams Casino songs are good. The rest is forgettable.
-
I concur with errbody. I dloaded it, didnt even listen to the whole thing and just sort of skimmed through it...but it didnt interest me really. I'll probably give it a full listen when I have nothing better to listen to, but I kind of find him boring for whatever reason.
-
Toro y moi's new album is out?
wttttfff mang. -
Lol I've been hearing a really mixed bag of opinions on the new A$AP Rocky release. I'm definitely gonna check it out, but I'm not really sure how to expect to feel.
-
Hahaha it's true I've been opening up to really "dumb" hip hop lately.
-
Fuck yeah very well deserved BNM: http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/17498-truant-rough-sleeper/
-
http://pitchfork.com/features/rising/9012-disclosure/
they're slow on this one, I've known about Disclosure for close to two years now -
now you look stupid hahaha everybody laugh at ttk hahahahahah
-
LOL @ the explicit content sticker on the NLDW pic
-
I see Crystal Castles (III) made the disappointing list. That was my pick.
I finally bought Channel Orange ($3.99 on Amazon the other day, just in respect for Pyramids which I downloaded for free somewhere)... yeah other than it and Thinkin' Bout You, nothing else has stuck. Must be over my head. -

In our next installment of "P4K has lost all self-awareness":

-
and Stars of the Lid
http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/17508-the-ballasted-orchestra/ -
I knew they liked Stars of the Lid, but I'd never seen them mention that album until now.
-
Saw this on Pitchfork just now.
-
Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!!!!!!
-
Well that's certainly a foxy score.
http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/17552-we-are-the-21st-century-ambassadors-of-peace-magic/ -
too bad it's actually a terrible album that I'm wrong for liking.
-
It's okay, Pitchfork obviously knows better than I do when it comes to music, isn't that right?
-
Well, that's their business model isn't it?
-
I hate that one foxygen track Sirius keeps playing
-
Pitchfork: We Know Better Than Steve™
-
who says that, really
-
Apparently I do
-
Who doesn't say that?
-
Who doesn't not say that?
-
Well at least they got Donuts right...
BNM for that new Blue Hawaii (side project of Raph Standall-Preston, the lead singer of Braids) track was a good job too. I'm excited to hear what that album and the new Braids album sound like. Hopefully P4k isn't just jumping on it because its their way of hyping "Purity Ring with a way better singer" for the new year... I'm expecting good things from Untogether (a Women reference?). -
Getting Donuts right would be giving it an 8.6
I like it a lot but the masterwork some people claim it to be is lost on me on some level. It's probably just because I refuse to believe any instrumental hip hop album deserves a score on par with ...Endtroducing. -
I wouldn't personally rate Donuts a ten based on enjoyment (somewhere in the 9's for me) but that doesn't change the fact that the correct score for Donuts judging on innovation and cultural and historical relevancy as well as quality cannot be any less than a 10.
-
@ClydeNut
Pretty much exactly how I feel about it. P4k reviews relevancy, and they got that score right. Based strictly on enjoyment I'd personally give it a light 8. -
I'm fine with giving it a 10 for all that stuff, but I usually just equate my score with my personal enjoyment as it is. The cool thing about not being pitchfork is that I can rate classic albums whatever the fuck I want.
-
personal enjoyment for me Donuts is 10.
I don't care about relevancy -
I give Krispy Kreme a strong 10.
-
Dunkin Donuts Coffee is a strong 8. I'm a fan.
-
That is the correct score.
-
On Krispy Kremes that is, Coffee of any type is a light 2 at best.
-
never had Dunkin Donuts (there aren't any in my area that I know of I think) but Krispy Kreame is fuckin delish
-
Dunkin Donuts > McDonalds > Starbucks
I can tolerate Starbucks, but shit tastes burnt. -
We have more Tim Hortons here than anything else, but that's because Buffalo is basically Canadian soil.
-
Lemonade > any other beverage
fight me drinknerds -
Diner coffee > all
-
The best drink is Loganberry and the best thing about it is that you can't have any.
-
Well I'd let you have some, but they don't really sell it outside of Western New York and Southern Ontario despite it being the most delicious fucking soft drink in the history of mankind.
-
Damn fine coffee! And hot!
-
It's sort of like drinking fruit flavored syrup, so I recommend just drinking some berry syrup if you want the equivalent.
-
The syrup costs money, but the diabetes is free.
-
WOOOOOAH DIDN'T SEE DAT CUMMIN
-
^
I saw they reviewed it and without even seeing it got "best new reissue" i'm like "oh I wonder what it- IT'S A 10 WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED" -
not that I'm complaining, if there's any 90's hip-hop album that deserves a perfect score it's Illmatic
-
I agree with the score and no BNM. I do like them, but their new record is by no means mind blowing. Pleasant.
-
Same^
-
BNM for new Grouper.
-
http://m.pitchfork.com/news/49381-r-kelly-bjork-and-belle-and-sebastian-to-headline-pitchfork-music-festival-2013/
wtf. That sure is an eclectic assortment of headliners.
-
the last 2 at least somewhat make sense for Pitchfork, but R. Kelly? What in the fuck of fucks?
-
"We're offering an installment plan for three-day passes, in which you'll be able to buy passes in two easy payments."
more festivals should definitely do something like that -
I say no BNM for MBV.
-
#NOBNMMBV
-
New MBV:
5.0 on music
11.0 on shoegazes
9999999999999999999999999999999999999 on hype -
was thinking about it last night,
New Unknown Mortal Orchestra will definitely get 8.2 or more.
Like, 8.2-8.7 or so. Won't be more than 8.7.
Probably a BNM of sorts to go with it too. -
Oh good, I'm not the only one who thinks about P4K scores every night before I go to bed.
-
every night? no this was just on my walk as I was listening to the album
-
It's okay, you don't have to hide it anymore.
We can be there for each other.
We can get through this. -
Say what you will about R. Kelly, but the remix to "Ignition" is still one of the greatest songs ever.
-
im there with you danny.
-
do u guys think mbv review is coming tonight
