Why was it panned by /mu/ and rym?
Yes, yes. It's a poor man's Elton John and kinda pretentious.
But it's a very well written pop/folk rock album. Very well produced too.
I disagree with Fantano when he have it a 9. I think it's a 7.5~8.

good enough reason to not like it for me.

They can't see beyond the surface concept of a man spouting banal philosophy.
No its not

You're right, it wasn't panned by /mu/. Maybe RYM but they are literal autists who publicly pride their autistic lives so I don't take them seriously.

>makes thread about them
clearly u care and need arbitrary ratings to secure your taste.
Father John Misty is utter shite mate

No it's not. PC Tillman might be a poor man's Elton John but still sound good.

I'm not OP, you dunce.
>>73001325

It's just a pretty underwhelming album, and this is coming from a guy who put ILYH in his top 10 for 2015. This album is like that album if everything that could have gone wrong actually had gone wrong.

I mean there's no way I can. This is what comes up when I try to delete it for example. It's not my post but that's not really proof since I can't really prove that.
>>73001412
I feel exactly the opposite. I didn't care about ILYHB that much, it's a good album but very insistent.
And I was expecting something similar with PC and I was, I wouldn't say overwhelmed, but I was happier with his sound this time.
I still didn't listen to Fear Fun. It's different from ILYHB and PC?

Fear Fun is his best imo. More meaningful, better musically, and more enjoyable generally.

The album did not deserve the high praise it received. Compared to his previous releases it is a tired and confused and almost unintelligible breakdown of an album.
The music world is desperate for FGM to succeed as things are a bit choppy out there.
Sadly talent that emerges soon gets trampled on and trashed by A&R and other minor acts and radio and Youtube broadcasters so that the dislocation
between review and actual album and rest of reality occurs.
A. non

what does that prove?

idk i only use 4chan x
It's just really bad, anon. It's great you like it but I was so bored by it. It comes off as just stereotypical, nothing-new, indie rock.

I find this album pretty forgettable. It completely left my mind until seeing this post.
6/10 for me; decent production and sometimes decent songwriting, but I agree that FJM is a pretentious twat
