rddm Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Would we have been as upset with him if he had't given Daft Punk like a 9? And by upset I mean "I don't even care about this review or opinions on music in general and music critique is arbitrary and not to be taken seriously." Having to say "Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?" is virtually equivalent to saying "No offense, but..." I guess what I learned today is that scores always feel strange relative to each other. But that's just my opinion :D Something, something, dancing about architecture.

lumpenprol Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 he is somewhat obnoxious but I really agree with his review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 His reviews always give the impression that he's just looked at the track art, track-listing and track-times and guessed the rest (edit - shhh though I do agree with what he's talking about at 5:19 - 6:12) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerwolf Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 He's a fucking annoying twat, but I quite like him lol. Work that one out..... Some of it has to do with him filling a gap, nobody else does what he doe's. And I'd say he does it (annoyingly) well. I think he's a bit of a dork and he know's it, he don't take himself to seriously. We need a British version of him but less nerd, more savage.

Nebraska Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 His reviews always give the impression that he's just looked at the track art, track-listing and track-times and guessed the rest i disagree. he usually starts off with a little background info then goes a little into the musical evolution of the artist/group so he does at least attempt to show how he came to form his opinion. personally, not only did i think he was spot on, i actually think he was being a little kind to the album. i'd have given this album a much lower score. imo, it's the most disappointing this year (so far) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny O Flannagin Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I personally like the guy even if i do disagree with his position i never really get mad at him. That being said, i always had that sort of feeling toward the album so i generally agree with the review. I thought it was funny how Palace Posy was one of his favorite tracks tho...

lumpenprol Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 When he mentioned Fiona Apple he lost all credibility with me. huh? didn't he just mention her in the context of recent musical comebacks? He didn't say she was god's gift to bipedals or anything... (plus I would think people here would have some level of appreciation for her, she's may be a crackhead but she's certainly not mainstream) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Ooze Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 i don't mind him at all and i don't understand the hate towards the needle drop, he's got some pretty good ears a lot of his reviews are just too soon though, you can't "judge" an album like exaii in less then a month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DorkingtonPugsly Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 lol at that whole video. And to be frank, I agree for the most part with him about this album. And I've given it 7 run throughs, left it for a few days and listened to the tracks I liked most a bunch of times. Still doesn't have the magic that the past albums have had for me.
