Album Rating: 5.0

My issue with this review is not your score (and anyone who neg'd this review exclusively because of the 1.0 rating has their own issues), but the style and veracity of your writing. For example, the lyric "I watch from outside" is contained nowhere within the song Don, Aman, as the entire song is written in the third person. You also have a tendency to be concise where your points would strongly benefit from some elaboration. You assert that "the mix of guitars and drums feels like a rickety old shack ready to fall apart at any moment." I would agree with you, and I love it. A well-written review would explain to readers why this is a bad thing.

Album Rating: 4.0

I negged because he randomly compared this album to Bob Dylan in a way that was very poorly argued

I don’t normally neg tundra reviews, this one in particular is piss poorly written

Album Rating: 4.5

“ You also have a tendency to be concise where your points would strongly benefit from some elaboration.”



Yep. This is why I called this out for being an AI review, the clarity with which the review describes elements of the music is almost visionary, but at absolutely no point does the review qualify WHY any of the elements are bad or ruin the experience of the album. Absolutely no one who could identify that the appeal of this album is how it plays like a shack collapsing on itself would also not be able to qualify why this is a bad thing.

Addressed. Unrefined production is kind of like a rough blade. If a blade isn’t sharpened, it can’t really make an impact. In this case, the music is so raw that it barely leaves a scratch.

Lmao

come again?

I dont have this rated despite it being one of my fav albums during my late teens. but then I saw Slint live and they absolutely sucked so I kind of stopped listening to them.

How the fuck did 8 people pos this review???

"Addressed. Unrefined production is kind of like a rough blade. If a blade isn’t sharpened, it can’t really make an impact. In this case, the music is so raw that it barely leaves a scratch."

Well, I mean that certainly *is* a take... Not a great one though.

honestly I like unrefined production better in a lot of instances, especially these days when heaps of stuff is too clean. more authentic and expressive when it's raw.

Tundra's favorite genre is super shiny overproduced garbage prog metal, of course he can't appreciate some good lofi production.

Album Rating: 4.5

He is truly a reviewer of our times. Visionary use of cognitive dissonance and unrefined “rough blade” writing techniques, reflecting Spiderland itself. I find it to be a rather striking parallel. Remarkable stuff really.

I mean that take is in line with your tastes. I think it’s a genuinely bad take, but it makes sense why you’d think that.

The production on this is crystal clear, it makes no sense calling this rough or lofi. The way they captured the cymbals ringing out in in good morning captain at about 5:30min has always impressed me, everything is in its right place in the mix.

thats not a good analogy tundra, while a rough blade is basically useless compared to a sharp one, unrefined production has plenty of uses and merit if used properly

not everything can be sleep token.

im just proud of tundra for sticking with it considering all the dog piling that goes on

@Ambrosian - I agree, but can see why you would say it was lo-fi if you are comparing to super modern sparkly production. I think it is perfect for what it is.
