You have a great profile though

He enjoys a lot of music actually, most of the stuff he's rated. He just has a unique profile and rating system though, but isn't a pretentious fuck like AntiWarhol

Ah, I'll read into that. Normally when I see people rating most albums so low I just think that are pretentious and trying to be scaruffi.

He has better reviews and a much better curve than anyone on this shitty website.
Grampus doesn't like music, he just reviews every album he can find from like three genres and nothing else. His taste is literally ctrl + c ctrl + v of Rolling Stone.

ie "whether i agree with them"
>>62052330
Elaborate.
>>62052356
no, more like consistency and lack of bias/tokenism/favoritism
https://rateyourmusic.com/~b1ackjack
slightly provocative ratings
>>62052374
to expand on the last one: it means scaling your ratings to have a stupid "canon" / being extremely attached to random albums for fuck knows why
>>62052374
how does one improve their consistency and lack of favoritism?
>>62052484
>how does one improve their consistency
not him but id say, consider what albums you like and/or dislike generally have in common
>>62052505
There's so many factors though. Innovation. Technical skill. Creativity. Originality. Etc.
>>62052567
doesnt seem like there are since you named essentially (not precisely but whatever) the same thing three times
how much do those actually matter to your enjoyment though?
>>62052484
explore genres/scenes thoroughly instead of finding a couple token artists & letting them be the end-all-be-all. it shows, and it's why most people either have canon taste or /mu/ taste. but at the same time, judging music from the perspective of one type of music (whether it's metal, classical, pop, etc) is bias. "this pop doesn't measure up to what makes a metal album good, so it's shit" is the cause of a lot of dumbfuckery, but the mindset extends to "this electronic music doesn't measure up to what makes my indie rock albums good." your consistency for one type of music shouldn't fuck you over for other types of music. and if i ask you what your choices for the best albums have in common and you can't say anything other than "they're famous" or "i like them," you're bad at critical thinking.
>>62052661
Wow. That makes perfect sense.
What's your RYM?
>>62052661
>>62052484
I agree mostly with this, actually.
I have a consistant bias towards thematic shit and albums with continuity, but judge it from mostly a rock and instrumental point of view.
But if you judge everything with its relation to one genre, you're either retarded like Grampus or autistic Fastro
No, seriously, look at this: https://rateyourmusic.com/~fastro
>>62052774
*autistic like Fastro.
Also, I was saying I'm partially consistant, but also very biased towards a few artists/genres and I would like to fix this.
>>62052774
on the other hand, fastro knows what he likes, so you know how to take his judgement
>>62052661
you write like sal
are you sal
>>62052801
i just got the impression that if i sent a classical, folk, electronic, or etc etc album your way, you wouldn't know what to do with it.
>>62052816
i'm offended that you'd think that. xusosis literally listens to random albums with zero context and judges them based on who-fucking-knows, resulting in his ratings looking totally random (which is what he wants)
>>62052774
That guy has an amazing music map
>>62052859
>based on who-fucking-knows
personal enjoyment is the only thing he gives a shit about, he said it a couple times
>>62052814
He reviews mostly prog because that's what he likes, but his rating system literally says the best of pop music is on the same level as the worst prog music.
And those Dream Theater ratings lmao
>>62052859
That's exactly what I said, my guy. I said I have a bias towards rock music mostly, but thanks for the unnecessary condescending comment :)
>>62052861
Agreed. I admire a lot about him, but kind of want to know if he's actually autistic.
>>62052137
if i had known that my spelling of certain words would lead to death threats on me (and my children!), multiple dozens of homophobic insults, spam attacks, and hate from anonymous 4-chan types on various unaffiliated forums...if i had known all of this, i may have decided it wasn't worth it.
>4-chan
>>62052925
You know that feel huh Montie?
>>62052925
Like I don't like a lot of these dudes, but the fact that he pisses people off so much by doing literally nothing else but having an opinion is pretty rad (and also kind of sad).
>>62052235
birth of a nation
>>62052891
he has extreme tokenism though. he'll randomly cling to one or three artists from a quirky genre but can't actually waste his precious time learning about where they came from or what might be similar. he finds more enjoyment in finding random one-offs than learning about or actually appreciating music. he is actually pretty new to music too
>>62052235
Eraserhead
Another one of my favorites:
https://rateyourmusic.com/~auntler
>>62052981
seems like he just enjoys listening more than history. i totally get what you mean but me i wouldnt fault him for that
>>62052973

Is this actually TheHorbgorbler? If not, where's this pic from?
>>62053168
noice.
>>62053132
it also seems like he enjoys making charts with cool looking / obscure album art than listening. people who are aware that sticking to the canon is stupid, but answer that problem by ignoring important/significant/influential artists... are just as stupid. it actually seems like laziness, the desire to affect deep knowledge by having uncommon favorites without having to actually get through all the common releases before digging deeper. in other words, if you start at the bottom of the rabbit hole, it looks like you worked your way all the way down (even though you didn't.)

>>62063876
It's not.
>>62063928
I don't have music I dislike, so everything is a 5/10 or more to me. Because of this, it's more useful to use the full scale instead of just half of it.
>>62063876
>>62063928
I don't think it's that bad, honestly, but it's a bit weird. May as well just go for a full positive rating scale cuz unless you're on some euphoric drug 24/7 I don't see how it's possible to not dislike or 'hate' some music out there. it doesn't really matter but I'm in the mood to talk today.
