last two digits of my post number/10 will be The Glowing Man's score

I think Mitski has a huge chance of getting an 8.7 BNM. The singles were raved about in their BNTs and the rest of thr album keeps up thst consistency. She's talking about some VERY personal emotions too that any red-pilled fag can relate to

wrong, these

what score did p4k give your aoty lads?

they didn't even review it

it has an 87 on metacritic, damn

Swans BNM tonight
Mitski BNM tomorrow
YG BNM next day
Gojira 8+ no BNM whenever

nope, this one

they didn't review it for some reason, it's not even that obscure like for some reason they just completely glossed over it.

Why has 2016 been so lit, lads?

I'd space them out a bit but this

what were they?

I Bet On Losing Dogs is SOTY

imperial by denzel curry

Oh fuck, thought it still had 88? Honestly didn't try to replicate the metacritic score, I just really connect with this album and I feel like a lot of other people will too

That's interesting that you'd rank that so highly. My top 3 of Puberty 2 are Crack Baby, Fireworks, and Thursday Girl

What's so great about Seasons (Waiting on You) that they'd call it SOTY 2014? There is nothing at all distinctive about it.

Dead Sara - Pleasure To Meet You 8.3 BNM

...

eh close enough

Who's gonna get it?

no, not close enough

not including "rape" in the main headline is a huge omission.

it leads to people not even clicking the link or noticing as it's not a very interesting title

Something about the vocals, lyrics, and those synths that emerge after the first chorus just fuck my shit up every time

Swans 9.6 incoming

Pic related 8.x BNM
Swans high 7 low 8

what exactly are you implying here? don't you people usually complain about p4k being a bunch of SJWs? now they're not enough? I don't get it.

We already got case/lang/viers and RHCP

I know; that's why they're marked

Anywhere from 6.7 to 7.1

300 deleted reviews???????!
I thought maybe it was a handful trimmed reviews (flaming lips, black kids ) but that many?

im waiting one of the hyped albums (swans or YG) to not get a BNM and we do the "i don't like thing" meme

Plenty of people have expressed dislike towards TGM.

why were they deleted anyways?

Mitski tonight. 8.6

I saw after I posted that

They purged a lot of their earliest reviews because they were too amateurish or jokey

Well at the very least it's not been received as warmly as the last two so a lower score shouldn't really be seen as only possible due to a political slant.

pitchfork already panned aoty who cares

what's that?

>Jake Bugg's album got a 3.0
>listen to it out of curiosity

holy fuck, how can music be this bad

Swans: 8.8
YG: 8.9

The Glowing Man won't be as highly regarded as their last two. There's nothing new here, they've done it all already.. their last two were their masterpieces, along with SFTB. If you're a fan great it sounds like Swans but otherwise there's not much appeal

white album

Swans will get between 6.5 and 7.5. Fucking telling you right now they won't have the guts to completely pan the shit out of it but won't BNM it either.

i'm thinking a low bnm like an 8.3

SWANS 9.5

DUBS CONFIRM

...

6.0

Mitski's Puberty 2 will either get an 8.6, 8.7, or 8.8.

no Glowing Man today

8.9

Still Brazy 8.6

The Glowing Man 8.1 no BNM

Swans review will mention Gira raping Grimm
Dubs confirm

We don't even need dubs to confirm that pham

They never do two BNM's at the same time. Pitchfork will be contrarians. Mitski 8.6-8.9 BNM. Still Brazy 7.8-8.2 no BNM. No 'Glowing Man' until tomorrow.

im not excited for Sup Forums to turn into Sup Forums when the review for glowing man comes out

I was just predicting for the whole week. Tonight will be either Mitski or YG and a handful of literally whos

what if they don't actually review the glowing man tonight

>and a handful of literally whos
Perfectly describes my reaction. They think they are being unique and supporting the artists but it literally never makes me check the album out. Especially when it's a 7.4-7.9 of some nobody.

try jet, somehow the 0 doesnt seem mean enough

they won't, mitski tonight.

all of Sup Forums is Sup Forums when the times dictate that they need to reveal themselves to shitpost "ironically"

lol no

I actually saw that album for sale at a dollar tree
I was tempted to get it for the memes

its more just really boring and derivative, I dont remember anything being meme worthy

Has Good Content Guy died as well?
I don't think he ever posted a Glowing Man photoshop. Feels bad man.

Sup Forums stands with Michael Gira

9.4 MINIMUM

how do you know?

But the monkey peeing in its mouth "review" is the stuff of legends

i prefer the eminem show review..


its that writers "fuck it i quit"

Shoutout to Silicon Valley for using GY!BE in their episode last night

>surprise Mitski 9.6 automatic AOTY

SWANS BTFO

This thread stands with Michael Gira, Freddie Gibbs, Afrika Bambaataa, Heathcliff Berru, Leslie Rasmussen, Gustavo Guerro & Dr. Luke -- and rejects the rape culture hysteria of Meagan Garvey, Amber Coffman, Larkin Grimm and Ke$ha.

>tfw they'll never release joke/gimmick reviews again
thanks, inflated self-importance
Meow the Jewels review was the closest thing and that was lame af

Noticed that too, it was pretty cool.

SWAN 8.1

YG 8

EIGHT
POINT
ONE

HOLY SHIT IT'S ALL OVER FOR GIRA RIP

8.1, kek, they never even gave a fuck

LEGEND

NIGHTLY RUNDOWN
Swans 8.1 BTFO by Saby Reyes-Kulkarni
YG 8.0 by Sheldon Pearce
Todd Terje / The Olsens 6.9 by Andy Beta
Ro James 6.5 by Israel Daramola

>>The Glowing Man 8.1 no BNM
spot on
pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/21994-the-glowing-man/

>they didn't mention the larkin grimm bullshit

wow, journalistic integrity from p4k for the first time in a while

swans deserved the 8.1. maybe lower

NO RAPE ALLEGATIONS MENTION

>Gira wrote the song as well before assault allegations against him surfaced earlier this year, but hearing it in the episode's wake amplifies the song's unsettling effect and provokes a slew of difficult questions.

That's it.

Literally not a single mention.
Well done p4k.

>review is fairly positive all around
>score right on the borderline
I feel like this was a low BNM review but adjusted downwards

they linked to an article about the allegations - but it was super brief. surprised.

I'd rather be right about YG

they did mention it but very briefly. Good move by pitchfork.

fuck off m8

The review was actually very positive and never mentioned Grimm.

8.1 given the circumstances isn't a bad score you fucking lunatics

>Swans close their current chapter on a subdued but powerful note.

Was expecting much worse

Yes there was
in the middle when they mention when will i return

>didn't read the review

ANTI-DUBS CONFIRM

i never even implied it was a bad score.. in fact i feel it was a good score and shocked the expectations

tomorrow will be mitski..

thats my gamble

>Gira wrote the song as well before assault allegations against him surfaced earlier this year, but hearing it in the episode's wake amplifies the song's unsettling effect and provokes a slew of difficult questions.

Everyone keeps handing out disappointing scores to the glowing man but on my first couple listens I like it way more than the seer or to be kind

>Gira wrote the song as well before assault allegations against him surfaced earlier this year,

r u sure?
