Fantano man. Sometimes he annoys the fuck out of me but then he comes with some based shit like this. Haven't heard the new Bon Iver though, is it any good?

Melon confirmed our guy again.
He's twisting my Melon man.
In the best way.
he's such a retard
the melon is back
>almost universal acclaim
>reviewers and P4K drones trying their hardest to find things to like about it to not seem like plebs
>Fantman shits all over it and gives it a 5/10
how can one man be so based?
Ah good, the melon saved us all by paving the way for a containment thread for your shit opinions
>>68241127
I mean he is almost totally spot on in this review. The album isn't trash by any stretch of the imagination but it is really underwhelming.
>>68241339
kill yourself my man
What I hate this album now
>>68241127
completely fair review
It really sounds like an inferior James Blake or Dntel.
I M O he did a great job of explaining the flaws of the album as well as its good parts.
now he's shit posting on twitter about it
my man
>>68241127
He's entitled to his opinion
>>68241697
and we're entitled to call him a melonhead faggot
Speedin' Bullet 2 Heaven of this year CONFIRMED
>>68241727
I actually like the album. Wasn't defending him
MELON IS BACK
>>68241250
this should have been an 8 or 9 desu. He was right on the mark with AE though tbqh famalamborghini
>>68241127
I haven't listened to it yet and was assuming, based on the threads here, that it was lolsorandom/"I'm confused it must be good" shit, but if Fantano gave it a 5 then it might actually be good since he's got the conceptual analysis ability of forgotten fart.
Cool, I'll listen to it later.
he's not wrong
however thinks listening to bon iver's shitty auto tune voice with overcompressed horns and percussion is an automatic pleb
>>68241933
>anyone who likes things I don't is an automatic pleb
This was a terrible album. 3/10 at best
Good on Fantano for shitting on your circle jerk
>>68241948
this is how /mu/ works though
>>68241271
>pitchfork drones on suicide watch.
FTFY
>>68242029
ah here we go
I liked the album when it leaked, a month before p4k reviewed it and pitchfork is literally my last review source.
With that said, anyone who is triggered by any review does not deserve to be taken seriously at all whatsoever.

>>68241915
lmfao
>>68242825
this happens like once a month whenever he reviews something people like.
why is it so incredible that a human being happens to have taste tailored to themselves and would give reviews based on this taste.
if you want to reaffirm your feelings on the score just go fucking watch another review. or read the pitchfork review, or circlejerk on reddit. theres surely plenty of places for that.
Haven't heard this album. Why does /mu/ hate it?
>>68242980
>contrarian
Melonhead is about as bandwagon as it gets
>>68243162
>Tripfags understanding anything contrarian
D R O P P E D
This album was good dipshits
>>68241127
He's right and literally everything he said was spot on
The album was fucking trash
>>68243130
this album is "This sounds like shit but I think it's supposed to so I guess I'm also supposed to like it?"-core to the max
>>68243130
Half of /mu/ seems to love it, half seems to hate it, mostly for the reasons Fantano mentions in his review. He doesn't mention the cringy lyrics though.
People who love it don't seem to have any arguments other than it's amazing you fucking pleb.
>>68243238
Hey Melonhead
WHO CARES WHAT THIS USELESS FAGGOT THINKS
I DON'T EVEN LIKE THIS ALBUM.
>>68243283
t. bootyblasted faggot who was tricked into thinking he liked this trash
>>68241441
You're a fucking moron if you think everybody's just pretending to like an album to seem cool.
>>68241448
It's incredible just how much his channel has deteriorated in the last year or so. He needs to go away and take his drones with him
>>68242825
i disliked the vid
i agree with score, but his review and criticizm was shallow on this
some points were quite stupid, like
>oyyy blake done it already 5 years ago like it's been 5 years
or
>oh my it only sounds good on laptop speakers like not on my meme akai headphones
only valid point is that songs feel unfinished, it is indeed true, but he fails to see that if you listen to it as an album, songs actually flow one into each other pretty well creating one lit piece
then again it is a bad album, but it is also a bad review
>>68243130
Same reasons /mu/ hates everything m8
>>68241208
>but then he comes with some based shit like this
>Haven't heard the new Bon Iver though
>>68241208
uhhhhhhh I agree with this guy
>>68243562
wtf dude
>>68243596
This reads very poorly. I mean to say that it makes no sense for someone to think something is based if you don't even know it's content.
Remember this guy trashed Bon Iver, Bon Iver too. He just doesn't like the music yall
This album is great though so
>>68243454
this is some emperor's new clothes shit and you know it m8
Anthony doesn't ever seem to understand the concept of a musical arrangement that hasn't been mixed "perfectly" or something that is remotely new to him
Agree with him about the shitty James Blake bits though
>>68241208
Jesus Christ
Bon Iver has always been hipster trash
>>68243454
pic related ;-)
>>68243679
Wow, anon. What an unique opinion. I've never seen anyone say that before.
>>68241649
>22 a million sounds unfinished
>but that rap album where every hook sounds like danny brown just threw something on the beat 5 minutes before they started mastering, that shit is a 9
(not so) hot take: Fantano never likes sentimental music and always likes dark unhinged music
nothing to see here folks
>>68243562
I haven't heard the album, but I'm aware of its reception. Fantano goes against all major critic reviews and the general opinion of his fans (see the number of dislikes). That's pretty based.
>>68243628
>this reads very poorly
>clusterfuck of subordinate clauses
>it's
is this bait?
>>68243745
I thought they were both 8 out of 10s but it stands to reason that Anthony picks out the most basic fucking normie tracks on both as the ones he likes
>>68243745
>never likes sentimental music
>giving shit like Benji, Have You In My Wilderness and Helplessness Blues a 9
lol ok
>>68243760
>fantano always likes the most basic tracks
ain't it funny how that happens?
fantano also makes the most basic comments (apparently there are only 9 or 10 adjectives required to write professional music reviews), makes the most basic choices about what to review, and we can always predict his scores because his taste runs in consistent, identifiable directions.
I was a fan once, but at this point I think Fantano is pretty useless. He doesn't introduce me to new stuff, he doesn't say insightful or surprising things, and he is set in his likes and dislikes so you don't even really need to watch the reviews to know what he probably said
>>68243721
>shits on the album like it's a 3
>gives it a 5
I'm really getting tired of him doing this.
>>68243849
look at this butthurt faggot
>>68243806
I will say his reviews of helplessness blues and benji both surprised the shit out of me. But if 'never likes sentimental music' is too strong, I think we can agree that he is at least biased against sentimental music and in favor of dark unhinged music
he likes shitty dark unhinged music
remember, he said that pic related is
>power electronics
>industrial
>noise
when in reality it's just industrial metal / synth punk
he's the epitome of 'I like it because it sounds good to me"
he revealed himself as an uneducated fuck with superficial knowledge about genres long ago, why people still caring
>>68243849
I actually quite like Fantano at times, and I think he seems a generally agreeable guy but on some occasions his criticism lacks so badly
>>68243752
It's called being a contrarian
>>68243881
>butthurt
you are overestimating how emotionally invested i am in all this. i am just saying i don't think he is very good, and i have specific reasons for thinking he is not very good
>>68243903
>that thing
>synth punk
synthpunk would never be that shit
>>68243849
>WAAAHHHH WAHHHHH HE GAVE A NEGATIVE RATING TO SOMETHING I LOVE
>>68243903
yeah fuck plebs who like music because it sounds good
and fuck turbo plebs who like food because it tastes good
>>68243025
There's no taste in creaming over everything Justin Vernon does just because he has a nice voice. He's one of my favorite vocalists and I'm telling you that 22, A Million was trash. Overproduced garbage. The autotune, pitch shifting, reverb and all the other shit thrown on his vocals are various points on the tracks is just totally unnecessary and sounds awful. And just slapping as many samples and sounds as you can on a track doesn't mean the production is "experimental" or good, it means it sounds like dog shit.
>>68243968
see >>68243928
lol you guys will get smug over anything
>>68244131
But exactly what you'be described is bad about it, I think makes it good
It's called subjectivity you fucking dougie
>>68243972
try thinking before posting, you completely misunderstood the point
and that's what problem of /mu/ is
you faggots only see what you want to see even if it's not there
>>68243921
It's contrarian if some anonymous wanker on mu shits on something. It's based when a well known youtuber does it desu
>>68241127
Based fucking Fantano. For every score I don't agree with, there are five BTFOing artists who get praise they don't deserve.
PANNED
Should be lower honestly, and I've been saying this since it first leaked in shit quality.
Also:
>F-Fantano never panders to his fans!
>He would never do something to piss off a ton of his subscribers!
proven wrong yet again
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrS2xLwskq4
what did he mean by this?
He gave a 7 to James Blake and both albums sound the same. If you don't like it be at least consistent, Mellonhead.
>>68243596
>never listened to it but fantano is right even though i don't usually agree with him
"uhhhhhhh I agree with this guy"
>realizes that the guy's reply doesn't make any sense
"wtf dude"
>>68243752
>going against pitchfork and general opinion makes you based
>>68244866
actually he gave a 5 to this year's James Blake, retard
and they don't sound similar at all anyways
>>68244891
James Blake's s/t, I should've clarified
>>68244920
still doesn't sound like Bon Iver
>>68241127
good
>>68241183
this
>>68241649
holy shit based
>>68244866
He criticized the album because he said it sounded like something James Blake already did with his s/t. If you make an unambitious album that just sounds like a rip of someone else's work, why would you give it a similar score?
Not ripping on the Bon Iver album, I haven't heard it but I'm just explaining Melonman's point of view.
