literally everything else
I wouldn't recommend any of these to anyone
>shit tier
All of them
This.
+ for Deep Cuts, the dude needs more exposure.
I guess I agree with this chart, although Fantano is good-tier in my book
yeah, but incomplete. throw simon reynolds in god-tier and mark prindle in good-tier.
>classic pitchfork
>good
no
Fantano is alright. At least he doesn't try to be a cultural influencer.
Fantano in "good-tier"
all else is good
ohhellfire should be god-tier
it's good otherwise
Deep Cuts is so boring and says the most obvious shit ever. Definitely in the meh tier.
>god tier
OhHellFire
>shit tier
Everyone else
sputnik music is the best music review website and you know it
Better?
This. Music reviewers are cancer
christgau belongs in shit tier
guy is literally intimidated by musicianship
...
Yes
classic pitchfork was fucking garbage too

>Every review is just some selected fanboy jerking himself off over the album
Todd is the only good one because he doesn't take himself seriously.
Melon claims the same thing, but also loves to stroke his own ego about being "the biggest music critic in the world" and shit, while Todd is just a regular humble guy who likes to geek out about music.
Forgot that John Peel did music journalism as well.
>ohhellfire
>not god-tier
shame on you op
...
Only correct chart
Robert Christgau is one of the most useful critics out there. you know where the guy stands, and his ratings are relatively consistent over the most recent half-century of popular music. who else can you say that about?
2 of the 3 ratings/reviews people nitpick to point out flaws in his system were from 1969 - the year he debuted the thing (ITCOTCK and Hot Rats). yeah, he dismisses both these albums without enough explanation - especially in hindsight. but the fact he gave both Zappa and King Crimson A-grades for different albums shows he's not biased against musicianship as such
no, it's all dependent on personal taste
this. Face it.
The only god tier option is forming your own opinion you anchoring fucking drones.
Not saying you're wrong but why do people hate Todd in the Shadows?
Scaruffi should be God-Tier AND Shit-Tier
fuck off christgau
music reviews are stupid just listen to it idiot
This
DEHH and Fantano are the only ones I listen to.
because le true music connoisseur can't accept poptimism in any case or form
ftfy
Is Piero actually unironically liked here, or is he just a meme?
I just wanted to make a Sup Forums tier chart of music journalists and reviewers. Haven't seen one before and thought it could be fun.
Rolling Stone has always been shit
Too true to be posted here
He doesn't even like good pop music lmao. Also no musical knowledge whatsoever
all shit-tier
only Noktorn is real
he's genuinely great. some strange opinions but not stupid ones.
>god tier
Lester Bangs
>good tier
Chris Ott, Simon Reynolds, Mark Fisher
>okay tier
Griel Marcus
>absolute dogshit-tier
fantano
Modern Pitchfork is shit-tier
Mark Prindle can never be anything more than okay. On the surface his reviews are fine, and many are correct, but looking at some others he is total shit. Those fucking miles davis reviews, that fucking avalanches review, those fucking 10 star reviews of his own really shitty lofi records of fart jokes with his friends
