that's the thing i can't compare em with arbitrary numbers i mean i've slowed down rating things to like once every two weeks but i usually just don't think about it

Album Rating: 3.5

yeah i gotcha, they're def. arbitrary. i don't even know what metric i go by, sometimes it's sheer

enjoyment level and sometimes i bump up shit for being artsy (e.g. this)

yeah i getcha dude

idk since joining this site my brain kinda got rewired over time into rating things whether i want it to or not and i'm trying to rid myself of that mental process

Album Rating: 3.5

idioteque kind of sucks (bad call six)

yeah i gotcha but at what point do you rate stuff then? i don't really understand what you mean by wanting to or not wanting to rate stuff. it's just something i do, even if on some level i know it's meaningless

damn dude idioteque is my fave on this

what i mean is i sometimes rate stuff if i've been listening to it and happen to be on the review page reading about it but other than that i don't bother

Album Rating: 3.5

damn really? will give a second chance but it seemed to go absolutely nowhere



and alright yeah i getcha. but why even rate at all, even if you happen to be on the thread? just seems pointless considering ratings for you are meaningless ?

force of habit

trying to shake it but it's pretty compulsive haha

i didn't read the last few pages but are you just hearing this for the first time or

Album Rating: 3.5

haha alright, gotcha.

and no i'm not, i listened quite a while back (i'm guessing late 2011) but i forgot it. i don't trust my rating either because i tended to overrate stuff sputnik liked just because sputnik liked it lol



this is probably something like a 3.6 for me

yeah i dunno how much other radiohead you're into but this doesn't click with me the way it seems to with so many

i like amnesiac way more

very similar but very different

Album Rating: 3.5

yea i posted earlier that radiohead is just too like artsy for my tastes. i like straightforward stuff. i've only heard okc and this though

@uranium are you indian or is that an ironic avatar

My grandfather was a Cherokee but that's not the right type of Indian

"in rainbows is super warm and organic and guitary and pianoey and nice"

holy shit that sounds like 4.5 quality honestly



@uranium, oh, i can't see your avatar but it looks like some hindu gods. it'd just be clever as fuck because "avatar" originates from hinduism, where the protector god vishnu will be reborn 10x (the ninth was buddha and iirc the 10th will come at the end of time or some cycle or sth). so yeah i was thinking it might've been a pun on that but i guess not lol
