Pitchfork Give New SY Record 7.2 (They Are Bastards)
|
Why bastards? Everyone's got a right for an opinion.
Many Pitchfork verdicts are questionable (notably 0.0 for NYCGF) but hey, it's just what them guys think. |
damn, now i'm not going to listen to it.
|
Well, you know how pitchfork's always right. Not worth your money if it's a 7.2. Go out and listen to Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain, they gave it a 10, therefore one of the best albums ever put out.
not. |
I probably would've given it a 0.0.
|
I'm always wondering how they could've given 10.00 to American Water by Silver Jews??????
I mean, come on. |
Well it is basically an outtake record, you wouldn't expect it to measure up to a 'real' album. It really shouldn't be judged in the same way either. I think Pitchfork has been pretty fair
|
its a favourable review...read the writing not the number.
Grandaddy got 6.7 or sometihng on Fambly Cat but it had a very favourable review. I don't think any b-sides collection has ever gotten over 8.0 anyway. They talk about Washing Machine at the end and how it would be cool if there was a deluxe version....*drools* |

No, I do. They've just gotten old and bland. I also hate rarities cds. |

Actually since listening to 'The Destroyed Room' a few times, i'm inclined to agree with your 0.0 score. |

They did? Silver Jews are one awesome band, and Smith and Jones is one of my all time favorites, but American Water doesn't compare to Bright Flight or Natural Bridge |
This seemed like a very even handed review. And a 7.2 is a positive rating.
|
at least the guy talked about the actual record instead of talking about which shoe he put on first this morning.

That's what i was thinking. Also, im kidding. i really couldn't care less who reviews what with how many thumbs or stars. I neeeeeeeedtoSLEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPpppp |
pitchfork gave a Trail of Dead album 10.0 for chrissake so their opinion is automatically invalid
|
although I just checked out that destroyed room review and it's actually quite well considered... B+
