Album Rating: 4.0

I definitely think this fits in the category of something I appreciate exists more than actual enjoyment from listening to it but this album is virtually objectively better than just 'average'.

"objectively better than just 'average"

I reluctantly agree. But I also don't think it is possible to know what average music is.

If you can remember what average music sounds like you're paying it too much attention :]

"Objectively average" would be a strange, bad take on most albums

"Objectively average" is the old school version of "aggressively ok" lmao

See, I get why to some people those 2 phrases would mean the same thing, but imo they really reeeeaally don't

Album Rating: 3.5

one of those albums that makes you want to bask in the neon embrace

In terms of what they actually mean, sure. In terms of being uncreative but easily usable ways to write something off tho...

Yeah tbh the more I think about it "aggressively ok" is also pretty garbo as a descriptor, just for different reasons

Yeah, it's pretty pushy but kinda lame unless you back it up big time

Imagining an album being unremarkably competent to the point where I feel actively aggressed by it. Aaagghh oww oh nooo it's bullying me with how fine it is

Album Rating: 4.5

So would you consider this album a 2.5 or a 3.0?

a pretty modest 3.0 I think. I don't care much for this one way or another, but no fun shitposts were ever written about 3.0s

So it's ""good"" but you don't care about it?

it's "just about good" and I do not care about it :]

I've listened to this like a dozen times and I still have no idea what I would rate it

What's worse than just about good?
