Told you so

Told you so.

At this point he's being contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian.

The album is great

>At this point

Honestly if you couldn’t have figured this out years ago, shame on you as a music enthusiast


Of course he’s contrarian. Did The Ooz, Slowdive, Morning Phase, Hurry Up Were Dreaming really deserve 4/10?


Or better yet, imo some of his “favorite” modern artists have released their Magnum Opus’, and he has time and time again failed and has quite honestly embarrassed himself among the “music critique Community”. See reviews for Love Streams, American Dream, Plunge (all of which follow up an album he had previously given AOTY

Yea, I've stopped taking him remotely serious when he gave Kvelertak-Meir an 8/10 and saying it was more of the same. I'm in no way an enthusiast, I like what I like and having assumptions challenged

But will then go onto say another album is more of the same and its 5/10 etc.

Everyone here is mad about someone's opinion on the internet.
He's literally just a guy recording his own opinion about an album with arguements which are important to him. Like just fucking ignore him and move on with your life, this melon won't harm you or your "superior taste in music" in any way.

Yeah yeah I understand he has an opinion blah blah blah. The real problem is people think he’s credible and his ego obviously feeds off of it

I can care less about his shit opinions. The man is just ignorant as all hell

go to bed fever ray, you have a long day ahead of you of making awful music

yes but a lot of his fans see take him as gospel. I know of someone who up until this year didnt listen to anyone other than EDM and Pokemon soundtracks, but now basically nuts over Brockhampton, Tyler the Creator etc.

He even took a day off work after the Fader article, because he felt personally attacked

kek

>He even took a day off work after the Fader article, because he felt personally attacked
lmao

wasn't the fader article a personal attack?

yeah.. on fantano...

yeah so?
Melon is a tastemaker, he is the most well known youtube reviewer. In fact i think he was the first. Dude just got in early and did the hard work.

You just know p4k and all the record companies cant stand him because he speaks his mind. Thats why they tried that hit piece on him

P4K has been mediocre corporate garbage since they were bought by conde nast.

Fantano is setting off the corporate cucks independent though alarm with every video

I mean, if you really want to stop him, just give him a shitload of money and access to musicians to become a company man

I like him and think he usually has respectable opinions, but hes a music reviewer, so honestly what do you expect, if you disagree with him make your own music review outlet. Gotta take it with a grain of salt.

I like that fantano can shit on something or go against the popular consensus, thats what being a critic is, being critical. P4k just hands out 6's and 7's

>The Ooz
yes
>Slowdive
no
Morning Phase
no
Hurry Up Were Dreaming
yes

Is Anthony Fantano the biggest cancer on the modern landscape of the music industry perception?

How the fuck can you be this wrong about an album, it's downright embarassing.

I say that from now on we ban any and every single one of the threads related to him.

Since it is more than obvious that he has no fucking idea how to comprehend or even analyze something deeper outside his generic indie/folk (lol)

I mean how long has it been since this album was released and he tried to pretend that he was able to unpack everything that was said on the project?

No, its simply not possible the fact that he decided to rank it without fully or hell even partially comprehend it only shows that this has turned into merely a job for him.

Looking for clicks and fame and not a competent review is a shame since me as well as most people here even if it were the case that most people now would not be able to allow themselves to come forward and be honest with themselves on a public way that they would also admit that they used to listen to him.

But after this it is beyond definitive that whatever authority he used to have on the public discorse of opinion relativity is mainly because of persistence and not quality.

Shame on me.

Shame on you.

But most importantly gof all.

Shame on him.

>huh a new fever ray album came out
>i've never been a big fan of her music but i guess i'll check out one of the new singles
>*starts to the moon and back*
>hey this is actually kinda cool
>i love the fluttery synth melodies and the weird polyrhythms.
>*the singing starts*
>ugh now i remember why i don't like fever ray
>"Your lips, warm and fuzzy
I want to ram my fingers up your pussy"
>*close window*
fuck this degenerate attention whore.

obvious pasta is obvious

I don't hate Melon, quite the opposite, I envy him, gets to listen to music all day and make a comfortable living. Yes, the modern media cant keep up with the internet stars etc and it shows.

Maybe what I dislike is the arbitrary valuing of a piece of art when a nominal rating is attached and people instantly dismiss it because its not above a higher score

>feminist
>lesbian
>waaaaah why is she singing about sex waaah degenerate

grow up

>feminist
>lesbian
>defending this

She's a shallow hedonist with nothing substantial to contribute to the lyrical landscape. She might as well be saying fuck bitches get money.

> doesn't know how to sublimate

learn how to make art

That record IS a 5 you poptimist cucks, go back to r/music all of you, get the fuck out of my face

>caring about what another person does in their personal life.
Cmon. And "contribute to the lyrical landscape" what nonsense argument is that. Sing what you want to sing about, even how literal or depraved it is. Stop being so pretentious

ALL I WANT IS YOU
EVERYTHING IS GOTTA TO BE THE WAY YOU WANT IT TO

i don't care about what she does in her personal life. i care about what she chooses to communicate with her art.
>Sing what you want to sing about, even how literal or depraved it is
okay sure but don't expect anyone with a sense of reason to buy in.

why its not your art, its not made just for you. its only one song, so its hardly a gaping blemish. a lot of musician have bad lyrics on certain songs, yet people still go for it

>XD his opinion is diff from mine, he must be faking it

youre a fucking idiot

his review is spot on, majority of this album is grating as fuck. "musnt hurry" only keeper on here

this board is embarrasing

>why its not your art, its not made just for you
i never said it was. i'm just expressing my personal opinion of the art

this

>a Nazi Socialist Alt Right melonni disliking an AntiFA homosexual queer pro choice album.
