If you don't understand you're falling for it

"I don't like an album a lot of people enjoy the world is getting brainwashed"

i dont even know what it is, maybe stop consuming pop culture

blah blah blah

Go back to /pol/ with your shitty ass baits.

What is it?

Stop being a sensational retard

So I take it you're cool with the Julie Byrne album.

Listening to Process right now. It's pretty good electronic music, at least as good as most Andy Stott releases. I'm not sure if it's BNM worthy, but like, who were the last ten artists to get BNM?

Julie Byrne
Sampha
Priests
Migos
The XX
Run the Jewels
Kate Bush
A Tribe Called Quest
Leonard Cohen
Weyes Blood

I'm a bigass Kate Bush fan, and I can tell you Before the Dawn did not deserve BNM IMO. I mean, it's a live album. It's not even new music. I think it got BNM because it has so many Red Shoes tracks on it, and Red Shoes is actually a great album.

Whatever, Pitchfork is always going to get shit wrong.

This album is *far* from their biggest offense. Why are you picking on this guy, OP?

>>70867125
seems like pretty standard standard bnm. theyve rated far worse shit higher

>>70867125
it's good man. Trust me there is a lot of shit that's way worse and got best new music too. Like this other guy said, Julie Byrne's boring ass album for example or The fucking xx.

>as good as most Andy Stott releases

so it's boring as shit?

>>70868259
yeah it's a little milquetoast

meanest thing I can say about it

I mean it's not revolutionary but he has a good voice and there's some good songs on there

Quite enjoyed this album, what about it sets a new low?

>>70868111
Christ, reading the interview p4k did with Julie Byrne, from the way they were making her out, she sounded fucking perfect for me, and then listening to her such a massive disappointment, how can someone release music so dull and unengaging? Nothing about her is noteworthy, not her guitar playing, singing, writing, or arrangements. One big snoozefest.

Not a single person I know knows who Sampha is.
Who gives a fuck

>>70867125
It has a lot more to do with the fact that there's been a dearth of good music coming out to talk about in the last month, so critics are over-praising anything they like at all.
