Anthony Johnson
if romy wasn't such prime 10+ waifu material, no one would care about the xx.
Cooper Lee
wow I was not expecting a BNM for the xx considering how they panned Coexist. But I guess they really liked that Jamie xx album
Colton Sanchez
Since when 7.5 considered a panning?
Dylan King
The debut got an 8.7 and was one of the most hyped albums of the late 2000s. Anything less than another 8.7 was always going to be considered a pan.
Hunter Diaz
Is this your first time in a p4k thread? Weren't you around for all the 7.4 memes?
Xavier Thomas
Anything lower than 7. A lot of 7+ albums are featured in the lists at the end of the year. 7.4+ is the new 8+, since they tend to give 9+ three times a year I know the 7.4+core memes, I was trying to talk seriously
Adam Nelson
You don't know the context. Im not talking about what is actually considered a pan. I agree about those new ratings values tho.
The XX debut was so completely hyped and obsessed by pitchfork that they pretty much said "this is the big new band everyone should be paying attention to that will get a 9+ in the next few years" without actually using those words. I remember lots of Coexist prehype threads on the web predicting pitchfork would give it 9-9.5, then when the acutal music started trickling out that wasn't the case.
Although i guess In Colour makes the narrative semi-true.
Jacob Young
I think it depends on the artist. Like if they gave Kanye a 7.5 it would definitely be considered a pan. I think the xx were a big enough, hyped enough band for a 7.5 to be considered a pan (and it didn't make their AOTY list, or even the honorable mentions)
Dominic Mitchell
>they tend to give 9+ three times a year they gave out a 9.0+ eight times last year, and none of them even got AOTY
Anthony Roberts
I didn't realize there was a new AFI album, downloading now desu senpai
Adam Foster
Did you not see all the features they did about The xx in the past few weeks? They've been reving up the BNM hype train for awhile.
Julian Reyes
