Spare
01.11.11 | you are aware of people's reactions to 10/10 p4k reviews aren't you |
accompliceofmydeath
01.11.11 | No, I'm not. I'm not really familiar with p4k in general. Please elaborate. |
StreetlightRock
01.11.11 | nobody cares about the rereleases they 10. well okay twelve people care about the releases they 10. |

01.11.11 | So giving an album (what I assume is) the highest rating makes people not care about it? Interesting. |
Spare
01.11.11 | quite the opposite |
StreetlightRock
01.11.11 | /mu/ is a credible barometer of musical opinion.
couldnt type that with a straight face.
idk it seems to me that pitchfork wins when people overreact to it. which includes overreactions to overreations. |
accompliceofmydeath
01.11.11 | So giving it a higher rating ups it's popularity and that upsets you? |
StreetlightRock
01.11.11 | not undrgrnd enuff |
accompliceofmydeath
01.11.11 | Damn hipsters. |
Spare
01.11.11 | no the overreactions begin the eventual decline into me getting completely sick of the sight of the album cover. it also sparks the inevitable backlash of those with bucketloads of PURE HATE towards the album who listened to it once because everybody is talking about it. plus every listen to that album i have from now on = OH HE MUST READ PITCHFORK |
StreetlightRock
01.11.11 | and the best way to cure this is to talk about it more ah yes i see |
Spare
01.11.11 | also why the fuck is the RERELEASE A 10 but not the original release? because fucking pitchfork |
Spare
01.11.11 | also shush |

americanmusicmachine
01.11.11 | I was just joshin' Mr. Spare. but that's what i'll say if someone gives me shit for liking a 10 / 10 pitchfork album. if that ever happens i don't think it ever will. but i mean good for the d-plan that a widely-read website gave their album a perfect score but I mean the very same website gave that liz phair album and also that trail of dead album a 10 / 10. so i mean it's not like that big o' deal. but y'know if it gets some people to check em out then it's all for good i guess. |
Spare
01.11.11 | i suppose but it still shits me |
omnipanzer
01.11.11 | don't let yourself be shat. You'll regret it later. |

kanecooper
01.11.11 | i don't really understand all the pitchfork hate |
LegendofPittman
01.11.11 | This band is sooo good though. Pitchfork don't make sense sometimes, especially with re-releases. |
americanmusicmachine
01.11.11 | @ kanecooper
they like vampire weekend. i don't hate pitchfork but i mean it's easy to see why some do...
vampire weekend. they're almost as bad as touche amore lol. |
kanecooper
01.11.11 | lots of people and publications like vampire weekend. i'm not a huge fan but they're okay |
porch
01.11.11 | yeah but they also cover a lot of good music too
idk maybe some people on this site should actually read it and improve their shitty taste |

01.11.11 | i hope change gets 11/10, best album ever. |
omnipanzer
01.11.11 | Is this still going on?
Stop the hate. |
Spare
01.11.11 | are they re-releasing change oh my god |
robertsona
01.11.11 | um
they gave a really good album a 10
who cares about stupid people who are like "PITCHFORK WHORES LIKE THIS ALBUM CUZ THEY GAVE IT 10/10 LOLOLOL"
and by hating pitchfork -because- of people like this you're sort of turning into one of those people, almost. like, hate the people, not the site. the site gave it a 10/10 and a pretty good review. who cares? with some exceptions pitchfork is much less inflammatory than people seem to think. pretty inoffensive stuff |
omnipanzer
01.11.11 | robertsona came out of the booth bitch. |
robertsona
01.11.11 | why does my spacing never work. imagine that but in sentences |
Spare
01.11.11 | exaggerating w/ title. comments explain anger.
edit: not even anger just frustration and venting. take my hate light-heartedly. |
robertsona
01.11.11 | yeah i read them. and i repeat: who cares? i assure you basicaly nothing will happen because pitchfork gave this a 10/10 (unless you, like, actively seek out dumbasses who complain about pitchfork. also, why are you on /mu/?) (although even if something did happen you still shouldnt care).
"also why the fuck is the RERELEASE A 10 but not the original release? because fucking pitchfork" almost all publications that review an album when it comes out and when it's rereleased ~10 years later have some sort of change in rating for a million reasons; i think you know them. this is silly. plus, the fact that they were only POINT FOUR points off originally is pretty impressive. i mean, rolling stone gives albums 3/5s when they come out all the time and then gives them 5s on rereleases. come on, dude. (unless im interpreting this question incorrectly. with this review, they're basically grabbing at a chance to re-review and reassess a great album. pitchfork, trying to spread good music? no, that couldn't be. THEY ARE THE ENEMY.) |
Spare
01.11.11 | oh you and your parentheses |
robertsona
01.11.11 | sorry these are in such bulky eyehurting paragraphs lol idk my browser deletes my spacign i guess |
Spare
01.11.11 | no that's the comments system i am pretty sure |
