The album has a serious superiority complex which it is clearly self aware of. But it's hard to disagree with most of the stuff he is discussing in the album.
Even if the music is mostly just passable, the lyrics make it a stand out album for the time.

It's not an album that warrants BNM. If it was half as long, sure.

The album is complete garbage. Boring, played out lyrics over uninspired music. Honey bear was a great album. This is a failure. It deserves way less than a 7.6

Except Benji was an interesting, largely successful experiment in songwriting form that even despite its minimal attention to sonic interest managed to be more musically compelling than Pure Comedy.

The review is the smartest thing they've done. They've had at least a month to sit with it and I think they've handled it right.

It's just not as good as Honeybear, it feels a bit dated too, I think I read that most of the wons were made in 2015, and it feels like it.

The feeling that the songs just blur together and are too sonically similar is really big here too. No doubt that leaving LA is a fantastic piece of work, probably the best song he's ever made with his voice working at the best too.

I get that people find him grating, but that never really transferred to his music before, but it has now. I would have given it an 8.

But in the FJM interview, he mentions reading Žižek and Freud and that he believes that humanity is condemned to moral chaos.

>FJM says he thinks humanity is a joke
>People are fine with that
>Reviewer writes FJM thinks humanity is a joke
>Stupid cunt, lol not reading this shit anymore

I don't understand this logic.
>>
Father John Misty represents the side of indie that I hate the most, with his smug tweed wearing fans who reckon themselves because they listen to alternative music instead of "that mainstream garbage" when in reality they just follow a different stream just as blindly.

That's not to say I'm a god with perfect taste, but at least I'm self-aware
>>
>>72020363
Which is funny, because if the genders were reversed p4k would have given it an 8.5 at best.

A 7.6? NOW THAT'S PURE COMEDY

BA DUM PSST
>>
I've said it before, and I'll say it again:

Pitchfork divides music into four categories: music that is trying to be fun, and music that is trying to be meaningful. They then further divide this into successful and unsuccessful music. They then subtract points if they feel the artist is repeating themselves.

MBDTF got a 10 because they felt it was trying to be and succeeded in being both meaningful and fun while also being a complete break from Kanye's previous work.

A 7.6 in this case means "Father John Misty is trying to be meaningful and he mostly succeeds. However, he is repeating an established formula."

It's infuriating to a lot of people because a guy can release two equally great albums and have the second one get ducked points for being too similar to the one before it.

Josh is definitely more Baudrillardian than Zizekian. Baudrillard thought we were all doomed and that there's nothing we can do at this point. Zizek is a good Hegelian and understands that Spirit will eventually achieve Absolute Knowing.

>>72020437
nah he's slightly too woke and he comes for poptimism to often for pitchfork to tolerate him any more imo, add that to him constantly attacking music journalist virtue warriors etc

pitchfork is basically the home of the really uncritical fake critical "academic" thinkpiece on beyonce which just reiterates than she and whichever else committee construct is really a feminist icon etc etc despite fifty writers despite no control over own life or output and so on, he rejects that thinking repeatedly from inside the machine itself by saying with authority "these people are miserable, they come to weirdos like me because their handlers are psychopaths who see them as money printing machines' and pitchfork basically can't exist in its current state of giving ariana grande 10/10 and claiming that she's autonomous if what hes saying is true

they like him while his antics are safe (and he's guaranteed clicks because he's funny and annoying to people in equal measure) but as soon as he starts prodding at the really essentially super conservative edifice of "pop stars are powerful women" thinking he's gunna lose the platform

I kind of agree with the score. I think the album is a 6/7. It has highlights but a lot of the songs are incredibly samey. That being said, the way this review is written IS legitimately concerning. I know this isn't exactly new to pitchfork, but the music really isn't being discussed here, and the lyrical analysis is troubling to say the least. They have to single out the white guy lyric from leaving la as him admitting that he's annoying? They have to reference a quote from outside the album where he voices his opinion on scantily clad female musicians? I don't generally agree with a lot of the criticisms some of the more uh... politically minded members of this board lob at pitchfork, but on occasion their bias does really show. a similar thing happened with Painting With.

tldr it's a fine album and a fine score but I'm not so sure I'm going to just dismiss a lot of the concerns being voiced in this thread as simply /pol/

7.5 isn't a pan. a score of 3 out of 4 stars anywhere else is perfectly fine, but if p4k does it, it's a pan?? it is their own fault tho. they made their good reviews sortable by 8.0+, so then that made by implication anything a 7.9 or lower a "bad" recored. conde nast just really got on them to fix their grade inflation. also bc fjm is a white male.

Still caring about any of this shit, about any of these publications and the opinions of anyone who works for them.

This board is such fucking trash.

this, fuck

>When you lionize pop music, you lionize the very thing that feminism purports to be against, which is a culture of exploitation and overcharging. Which is what cracks me the fuck up when you read these ridiculous puff pieces about how wonderful major-labor pop music is, and the whole fucking industry is run like you actually buy into the idea that that woman that’s onstage, wearing next to nothing, is powerful. Because that is like being a child.

>So you probably won’t write for pop stars again then?

>If you think that pop stars are anything other than prisoners, then you are fucking kidding yourself. I know them. They are crying for help in their music. We think that we’re doing the world a favor by recognizing the innate wholesomeness of this form of music, like, “Oh, I don’t know, it’s just fun! Something that was made to be liked!” But why do you think that Lady Gaga or Beyoncé would come to old Uncle Jerry over here for songs if they weren’t looking for something? If they weren’t like, “Get me away from these fucking psychos.” Both of them know I’m not running around looking for these gigs. I’ve just done co-writes with those two people. The only reason it happened is because people played them my music and then they asked me to write for them. It’s as simple as that. I have no interest in doing it.

>“I have a pretty good idea of what it looks like on the internet today about me,” he said. “I’m symbolic of a thing white people really hate about themselves. And the fact that I appear to be enjoying it is a bridge too far. It’s like, ‘You should be sitting around, hating yourself on Twitter, like all of us.’ Interpretive thinking, as an art form, is dying. We enjoy the dopamine rush of outrage so much more than the slow-burning nutrition you get from thinking with nuance.”

>The success of those songs, as well as an earlier collaboration with the rapper Kid Cudi, has brought more offers of celebrity collaborations. “But I don’t really want them,” Mr. Tillman said. “People think the world of music is so great, and it’s just not. It’s so boring, the way music is conceived and then declawed for public consumption.” The pop music machine, he said, “is categorically anti-woman. I know a lot of women in that industry. They were pitched an American narrative about success equaling freedom, when there couldn’t be anything further from the truth.”

I read this interviesw.

I was suspicious because FJM kept pushing the major label v. indie label dichotomy, which in 2017 seems a little trivial.

Also, isn't Sup Pop in pretty deep with Warner Music Group?

Made me suspicious.

seriously, the vocal melodies feel the exact same on every song and the fact that it's 75 minutes just makes it worse. Leaving LA has no excuse for being as long as it is considering the last half is the same chord progression, rhythm and vocal melody repeated ad nauseum.

Really disappointed, I liked Honeybear a lot.

I listened to this last night

I loved ILYH and Fear Fun but this was kind of boring. I wanted it to be lighthearted and fun and a bit corny like his old stuff but it takes itself too seriously and mostly all sounds the same. A few very forgettable songs.

I think a 7/10 would be about right
