ITT: times scaruffi was right
which one?
This is pretty accurate.
>>71363887
the residents. too lazy to post the screencap
can someone give me a brisk precis on this guy?
>>71364067
>Person Pitch is his highest AnCo score
Everything Scaruffi was ever wrong about has been redeemed
>>71363887
Scaruffi is always right.
>>71364114
STGSTV has the same score, but yeah, he gets the top-tier albums right.
>>71364067
bump all of these up two and he is right
>>71364289
you don't read much scaruffis, am I right
>>71364217
seconded
>>71364217
I just checked this, the self-titled is only a 7/10 right now, what happened? is this a shop?
>>71364436
I don't remember it ever being an 8.
Never believe Scaruffi ratings posted here.
>>71364436
sad isn't it
>>71364480
what does that have to do with the fake score?
>>71364551
It isn't fake, not anon but I remember it being 8/10 a few years ago
>>71364436
He changes scores more often than you would think
Daydream Nation used to be a 9, apparently, for example, and VU&N used to be a 9.5
Before he heard Faust I too, Faust IV was a 9
His review would indicate a much higher rating than the attached 7/10, so I bet he just changed his mind later and hasn't bother to update the text

>Faggot Collective better than Radiohead
lmao
>>71363887
>>71363887
Are Scaruffi drones the worst fanbase on /mu/?
>>71363887
>>71364715
those scores have definitley been changed too
>>71364731
I LITERALLY just took that screencap
pic related contains every time he was right
>>71364743
doesn't mean they haven't been changed by good ol' scaruffles
>>71364636
>>71364574
bullshit, I checked the internet archive wayback machine and none of this is true.
>>71364771
oops sorry forgot to attach pic, here ya go
>>71364793
proof faggot

>Anco good
how good he be so wrong
>>71365079
delet this
>>71364715
Third album should be higher.
Same with Loaded.
>>71365219
Wrong. They're good albums but nothing original.
Everytime plebeians talk shit about KoRn, I immediately remind them
>>71364720
This. The only guy to ever give him the time of day.
>>71364952
Wow, crazy. I am so positive that somewhere I read him responding to an email asking about those scores
His response was along the lines of "if Daydream Nation was ever a 9, I'm sorry, that was a mistake" and "I eventually went back and listened to the whole Faust discography and found their first record much more compelling" or something
I'll try and find the link to that
>>71364636
The Smiths used to be on his most overrated artists lists even though they had 7/6/7/7 album ratings, but when he took them off he bumped The Queen is Dead up by 0.5 (now back at 7) and knocked MiM + Strangeways down by 1 each

>>71365079
I mean, yeah. Bowie did in fact die of cancer on that day.
>>71365219
a 6 from scruffi means good, that's about all they are. Nothing special.
>>71365659
to be precise, 6 means "buy if you're a fan," and 7 means "buy eventually."
This is something plebs who think everything below an 8 is shit will never understand.
>>71363887
Why do you care so much about Scaruffi's opinion? (Or p4k's or fandango's)
I'm mainly pointing out Scaruffi because he is a contrarian as fuq
>>71363887
all too high desu
>>71365659
>>71365688
I know what Scaruffi's rating system is like.
I still think that TVU should be at least a 7,5 and Loaded a 6,5 or 7.
Piero (1955), 6/10
Cure's Pornography used to be 8
https://web.archive.org/web/20000510103246/http://www.scaruffi.com/vol4/cure.html
some his bob dylan scores arnt too bad
Switch Bossanova with Surfer Rosa and it would be on-point.
>>71364715
wtf some days back i checked this and VU was in 7
>>71366716
>Switch Bossanova with Surfer Rosa and it would be on-point.
no FUCKING WAY
>>71364155
one of the few bands you could clearly consider him a "fan" of, despite what he says about such notions
I'll Communication and Check Your Head deserve higher marks imo, but everything else checks out
>>71366791
No.
literally the only critic to recognize their first as a masterpiece outside of random people on RYM and metallum
ITT: times scaruffi was wrong
>>71367072
this bit always stood out to me
>Almost 20 years of career
>Just one album under 6
When /mu/ will admit that porcupine tree is pretty damn good?
