OFFICIAL and accurate 2016 BNM Tally: 33 Nights since last BNM: 19
The most wonderful time of the night, every night, right now. Here it is, the nightly P4K thread. Time to get comfy.
>Tonight's Top Stories -This thread stands with Kesha eternally -The follow up to Channel Orange is finally here! -Bon Iver debut 22, A Million live -200 Best Songs of the 1970s list coming Monday -This thread hypes and supports DIIV, AJJ, Angel Olsen, and Frank Ocean -/p4k/ forever
bon iver feature on white ferrari is annoying desu
Henry Green
is ka like hard-capped at 8.0 no bnm? the guy is the best rapper working, and we're talking about a magazine where any mixtape from atlanta gets 8.0 at minimum. on p4k if you aren't part of a relevant trend you simply can't release a great album
Angel Martin
What are your predictions for number one?
Jeremiah Bell
Bowie feels like a safe bet Heroes would be the likeliest
Grayson Young
yeah bowie sounds right. stevie wonder 10 may be foreshadowing also, esp. if you read the review
Luke Hernandez
Sound and Vision would be a much better choice imo, but Heroes is probably gonna be it bc it's so ubiquitous
Luis Scott
yeah, probably "Heroes"
And they went with the obvious pick for their 60s song list, "God Only Knows" by the Beach Boys, though I don't think Bowie is that much of a lock.
What other obvious choices are there? "Kashmir", "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough", "Thank You For Talkin' To Me Africa",...
Lincoln Taylor
calling it blond gets 9.8/10
Noah Hernandez
Does p4k even like Led Zeppelin? Along with The Who they seem like a band p4k would hate out of spite
they've given several of their albums 10s. stairway to heaven should go at least top 5.
Michael Bell
This thread rejects the rape culture hysteria of Amber Coffman, Ke$ha, Larkin Grimm, Meagan Garvey, Pitchfork, et al.
Asher Ortiz
did they do album reviews the same time as the eighties list last year? I do think it will have to be Bowie, and most likely Heroes. Really hard for me to imagine them going with anybody else? What seventies music would pitchfork even be into now. they're anti-rockists, and there wasn't much going on in the seventies otherwise. maybe something by sly stone...? I know nothing about funk. or soul. or whatever.
Hudson Peterson
>and there wasn't much going on in the seventies otherwise.
question is... who will get the 10 this year? Frank or Bon Iver? one of them will. Don't fight it.
Parker Collins
>one of them will why
Samuel Rogers
Bon Iver is shit, and has always been shit.
Ryder Smith
Blonde 9.5 Endless 8.7
Connor Foster
bon iver will get 8.3 bnm screencap this
Hunter Rodriguez
Probably not getting reviewed tonight..
Nathaniel Clark
both are 2 of p4ks favorites, both received 9.5s their last release, and both have been silent for a long amount of time only to release something notable and very different from their previous work (i know that 22, a million isn't out yet but based on the singles this will be the case). its time p4k breaks their 10 silence.
Adrian Robinson
Endless: 7.5 Blonde: 9.6 (or a 10)
'70s songs 10. David Bowie - "Five Years 9. Joni Mitchell - "Help Me" 8. Sly and the Family Stone - "Thank You for Talkin' to Me Africa" 7. John Lennon - "Imagine" 6. Bruce Springsteen - "Thunder Road" 5. The Bee Gees - "Stayin' Alive" 4. ABBA - "Dancing Queen" 3. Marvin Gaye - "What's Going On" 2. David Bowie - ""Heroes"" 1. Stevie Wonder - "Higher Ground"
Oliver Thomas
Endless may. It took p4k a weekend to review Pablo
Caleb Lewis
>pitchfork reviewing a visual album Lol no >9.5 Lol
Juan Myers
Nobody gave a fuck about Pablo desu meanwhile Frank's album has a fuckton of hype that won't even begin to die down for a few months, right now it is at its peak though And they'll review it now to cash in on that
Anthony Phillips
Endless > Blonde sorry
Adam Brooks
>Nobody gave a fuck about Pablo >>
Anthony Moore
Whenever I see this I think of people that like amnesiac more than kid a
Brandon Peterson
whay? pablo was the biggest release of the year
Owen Clark
Sounds about right
Imagines fucking shit and shouldn't be anywhere near the top ten
Isaac Flores
I'd say more like those who prefer the modest raw quality of untitled unmastered than the pretensious grammy bait that is TPAB.
Colton Bell
>nobody gave a fuck about pablo >filled madison square garden with alist celebrities announced 2 days prior to release his album k
James Gutierrez
i would be happy if they gave #1 to bruce over bowie.
Aiden Lopez
Well, they reviewed Lemonade Amnesiac is better
Sebastian Watson
Yeah that works too. Speaking of:
The bends = section 80 = nostalgia ultra Ok computer = good kid maad city = channel orange Kid a = to pimp a butterfly = blonde Amnesiac = untitled unmastered = endless
Jose Cox
8.4 BNM pan for Blonde incoming
Cap this
Hudson Bell
change "Imagine" to "Working Class Hero" change "Thunder Road" to "Backstreets" cut "Dancing Queen" or "Stayin' Alive," both won't be in the Top 10 (probably "Stayin' Alive" will make it)
Carson Peterson
No way the top Springsteen isn't going to be "Thunder Road"
Easton Morgan
Dancing Queen is a lock for the top ten. It's catchier with female voices. Also "Backstreets" would be the fourth choice off Born to Run, after "Thunder Road", "Born to Run", and "Jungleland". I agree
Jack Bell
oh it's the DFW user again
Nicholas Long
literally no fucking way
Juan Hughes
Marvin Gaye Inner City Blues
Nicholas Ortiz
>not having thousands of DFW reaction images saved to your hard drive
Josiah Perry
How could somebody who just wants to be GZA that bad be worth a BNM?
Carter Morgan
this
Aaron Bell
They would never do such a Rolling Stone-tier list
Wyatt Powell
they're two parts of a complete work. you can't judge them separately.
Hunter King
You're a retard The p4k top 10 will have at least three punk/new wave songs, one disco song, Rapper's Delight, What's Going On, Heroes, and Marquee Moon. Maybe Sweet Jane and Three Little Birds.
Liam Sullivan
Dead Sara - Pleasure To Meet You 8.3 BNM
Nicholas Morales
only edgy people on this board hate Led Zeppelin. They know that they are GOAT
Ethan Thomas
Blitzkrieg Bop
David Gray
so they're not going to have >Marvin >Stevie >Sly >Bowie >Bruce >Dancing Queen Those six are locked in the top ten as far as I'm concerned.
Joshua Martin
I finally started reading IJ. I hope you're happy, user.
John Cook
Witnessing this historic thread IF 10 is given.
If not, you all are memes
Nolan Sanchez
montie what do u think of frank
Gabriel Butler
There will be no Stevie, ABBA, or Bruce in the top 10. They'll be in the Top 20 or 30, but punk and new wave is too important to the 70s and Disorder exists
Jaxon Murphy
No reviews today
Carson Barnes
I like that he sampled Coldplay and Radiohead I thought that was pretty shill. I memed a thread earlier about being "let down" by the album but I have not heard it yet but from what I hear is not a banger album and like the slowcore of hip hop
Josiah Roberts
>dancing queen not in the top 10 >stevie not in the top 10 >thinking p4k will rank them based on importance >also thinking importance=good fucking off yourself
throw joni mitchell and lennon off that list and put disorder on
Nicholas Nelson

Carter Bailey

Hunter Clark
>no Ramones in Top 20 Fucking hipster scum Ramones were one of the most important bands of the 70s These hipster kids should learn some fucking history
Robert Lee
did they just cancel the 70s list or what the fuck
James Diaz
LIFE ON MARS #1 OF THE 70S HOLY SHIT I DON'T FUCKING BELIEVE IT
PITCHFORK HAS REDEEMED THEMSELVES
Jonathan Sanders
Two Bowie's in the top ten baby
Grayson Morales
>Life On Mars? wow pleasantly surprised. it's my personal favorite Bowie song, wouldn't go as far as say it's the Greatest Songs of the 70s tho
Xavier Robinson
200 Best Songs: Top 10
1. Life on Mars, David Bowie 2. Don't Stop Till You Get Enough, Michael Jackson 3. What's Going On, Marvin Gaye 4. I Feel Love, Donna Summer 5. Wuthering Heights, Kate Bush 6. Heroes, David Bowie 7. I Wanna Be Your Lover, Prince 8. Marquee Moon, Television 9. Dreams, Fleetwood Mac 10. Transmission, Joy Division
Parker Lopez
>all this obvious Bowie death pandering Seriously the dude is extremely overrated This list does not need so many fucking Bowie songs Not even from his best album either, if you want to go for a GOAT Bowie song choose TVC15 or something Also >Kate Bush >Fleetwood Mac Wew
Dominic Ortiz
so weird that they shoehorned Prince into this, and... Michael Jackson #2 same as in the 80s list. plus kate bush and joy division. I guess pitchfork is consistent.
Juan Mitchell
>Kate Bush >bad
>Bowie >overrated
one day, you will grow up
Jonathan Morgan
TOP 20 Patti Smith - “Gloria” Kraftwerk- “Trans Europe Express” Blondie - “Heart of Glass” Iggy Pop - “Lust for Life” Bruce Springsteen - “Born to Run” Queen - “Bohemian Rhapsody” Stevie Wonder - “Living for the City” Al Green - “Let’s Stay Together” Joni Mitchell - “A Case Of You” Bill Withers - “Ain’t No Sunshine“ Joy Division - “Transmission“ Fleetwood Mac - “Dreams” Television - “Marquee Moon” Prince - “I Wanna Be Your Lover“ David Bowie - ““Heroes”” Kate Bush - “Wuthering Heights” Donna Summer - “I Feel Love” Marvin Gaye - “What’s Going On” Michael Jackson - “Don’t Stop ’Til You Get Enough” David Bowie - "Life on Mars?"
Joseph Diaz
#1 threw me after seeing 'Heroes' at 6. I guess Bowie owns the '70s albums and songs
William Jones
Kate Bush is bad, her corny romanticism, overblown production, and obnoxious, squeaky vocals are so fucking irritating I bet you think Nick Cave is a good songwriter.
Brandon Sullivan
>Bohemian Rhapsody Was this ironic or what
Chase Rivera
bait
Aiden Diaz
I like how Sup Forums only shits on white pop artists.
Ryder Cox
>implying Do you seriously believe this user?
Easton Allen
How the fuck is Life on Mars the best song of the 70s. Like what it's basically a Bowie deep cut
Tyler Reed
I had a feeling it would be Life on Mars over Heroes
Surprised Joni didn't appear more
Owen Ward
I haven't looked at most of this list save for the tops, but is "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" anywhere to be found?
Charles Young
No it isn't You just have no taste
Levi Jackson
NO IMAGINE
LENNON IS FINISHED
Aaron Ward
My takeaway from this list:
>Bohemian Rhapsody is in the top 20's I'm going to kill myself
Why isn't Jolene in the top 10? One of the best songs of that century
WHY THE FUCK IS LONDON CALLING 48 THAT'S EASILY TOP 20 MATERIAL
>Rock Lobster at 81 This song is trash why does anyone unironically appreciate it
September by Earth, Wind, and Fire belongs much higher on this list
>having Throbbing Gristles on a top anything list and not putting Slug Bait wew L A D DI E S
Kayden Martin
Not sure. They didn't do ironic/ obligatory Stairway to Heaven. Take it as you will.
Luis Long
Mad Ramones fanboy checking in Kill me now
Asher Roberts
Seriously though guys, that Scott Walker OST is actually pretty good. Check it out.
