They revoked Loveless' "Best Album Of The 90's" title and gave it to OK Computer in their updated list.

This. It clearly should've been Orange Crate Art.

They gave Frances the Mute a 2/10

>>72586714
which is better /mu/? the '99 list or the '03 list?

>>72586876
Loveless is better than OK Computer

anything from 2013 and on, arguably 2012

>>72586876
the '03 list definitely
but that's not really a surprise, benefit of hindsight and all

When they started moving away from hipster indie and started giving every rap album a minimum of 7.5 to prove they aren't racist.

But aside from that, they've always been trash.

they dont review anything i listen to

>>72586787
It still blows my mind that someone sat down and wrote something like this without a hint of tongue in cheek irony.
Kid A isn't even that great. It's like their 6th best album.

>>72586876
03 list is exponentially better. They got rid of the vagina rock.

03 for including The Soft Bulletin

>>72587193
all of this 100% especially the last part

/thread

They became a hip-hop news site exclusively

This, p4k used to have an original style, now they are just like every other music publication. bland poptamists who just champion the same shit everyone else does.

>>72587193
this. They gave the turgid new Mary J Blige album a 7.7

They turned their backs on white people

>>72587375
there is simply no argument for putting kid a any lower than 2

>>72586672
Fpbp

Smart Weeaboo

Pitchfork are the video game journalists of music journalists. They care less about art and more about hip and cool politics because they know where the money's at. They even pulled the same turning on their own audience shit that gayman outlets did. The vidya guys did "gamers are over" while Pitchfork did "the unbearable whiteness of indie."

>>72589082
yeah delete this

>>72586657
They went the same route as gaming journalism and realized the monetary gain seen from reviewing cultural status over music quality is just too great to pass up.

Do you idpol retards realize that everything is for profit under this system no matter the art
Profit will always surpass anything else.
