Fantano's quietly making the world of music worse day by day and looking back I wish someone could have stopped his career back in 2011

>>73099085
His reviews are currently more impactful on an artists' career than Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, or any other publication

>>73099085
>I THINK I'M ALLOWED TO GIVE BLINK-182 A 'NOT GOOD' RATING!
He is allowed and he was right.
He's generally a pretty worthless critic though.

>>73099304
Allowed.
Right.

To shit talk blink-182?
THE blink-182?

How

Does anyone have the picture of Fantano shopped onto the Paranoid album cover?

He's a terrible critic beloved by millions and watched by even more, who parrot his opinions and adopt his critical language as their own. As a tastemaker, he pushes weak middlebrow shit like Injury Reserve and Travis Scott instead of actually talking about new or interesting things happening in music, and when he tries for broader analysis than "abrasive synths" or whatever he's possibly even worse. His perspective is super skewed and he has embarrassingly huge gaps in his knowledge but his reviews get treated as gospel by his adoring fans or at the very least as an Important Opinion that they have to internalise instead of just some dork's thoughts.

Also, like most YouTube memers!!!, he's very unfunny. And he's an edgy libertarian but that's not really relevant

>>Blink 182

Gaythony Fartano is out of line. Didn't like blink. Didn't like Dance Gavin Dance. Didn't like Panic! @ The Disco. Didn't like The Menzingers. Didn't like Creeper. All he is is a Gay Fart. And he'll walk away and bump bullshit and his best of the year list will be filled with crap like Ariana Grande and Lil Yachty.

when will people realize that if they want him to go away, they should probably stop talking about him. the people who do like him won't have their opinions changed, and others who dislike him will just agree

>>73099085
this but unironically

>>73099697
I mean the same applies to all sorts of people I don't like but realistically they're never going to go away so u might as well let me bitch

>>73099085
Alright buddy fess up.

What album you like did he give a bad rating? Is it just Blink or is there more to it?

>>73100106
Well I'm not OP but I dislike him for his condecension towards pop punk in general especially since he gives retarded nu-male shit like TPAB and TMS 10/10. I don't even like blink or NFG's new albums but still

>>73099560
>edgy libertarian
More like an edgy Bernie BTFObro.

>>73100134
Seems like somebody got a bit
F L U S T E R E D
by the simple objective opinion that pop punk doesn't even accomplish being either pop or punk.

>>73100196
>objective opinion
lol retard
well both pop and punk are shit by themselves so that doesn't matter

>>73100144
Lol I wish

He might like Bernie but he's SOSHULLY LIBRUL FISCLLY CONSRVATIVE, thinks Sam Hyde is just le epic master anti-snowflake trole and pals around with morons like Sargon of Akkad, he's clueless

>>73099085
Only thing I hate him for is he saying 'Humbug' by the Arctic Monkeys wasn't good. It's their best fucking album m8

>>73099286
not true, many artists he reviews hardly has any fans that consistently watch him

>>73100212
>well both pop and punk are shit by themselves so that doesn't matter
so combining two shit genres makes a less shit genre?

>>73100254
yeah pretty much. when done right that is, not shit like The wonder years or the story so far

>>73100196
Have you never listened to Jawbreaker or something

>>73100134
>nu-male shit
If you gave those albums actual criticisms instead then you'd have a good argument.

>>73100310
Those are the albums of choice for the hipster youtuber crowd.

i don't know what's worse, caring about fantano's opinions because you think they hold weight, or caring about fantano's opinions because you hate him so much

>>73100134
I bet you have awful taste in old-male music lol

Probably think Michael Gira's alpha

>>73100325
the latter.
say what you want about fantano fanboys but im sure they've found good music from listening to his opinions. People who watch fantano just because they despise him don't make sense to me at all.

>>73100325
He's the most popular music critic in history and kids worship him, it's hard not to care as someone who cares about the Music Discourse or whatever

>>73100338
>Michael Gira
who?

>>73100371
Pls tell me what you listen to anon, it's been a long day and I need a laugh. And at least it's not Death Grips or Swans

>>73100394
Bowling For Soup. I know the only thing that comes to mind when they're mentioned is "19, 19", but I've dug through their whole catalog and what i like about them is their ability to capture the human condition better than any of their peers and write hooks that could put blink-182 to shame, and they do this with a sarcastic and self-depricating sense of humor to make light of otherwise serious subject matter and I identify with it because of that.

>>73100212
Pop punk is the greatest music genre ever invented. Followed closely by punk.

>>73100212
Saying an entire genre is shit and being on this board is fucking retarded

>>73099560
>parrot his opinions

Not everyone. Not even the majority, by a longshot. If there's an opinion disseminated to many, people will "parrot" for the fuck of it, people will have the same opinion, people will have different opinions, people will claim opposite opinions for the fuck of it.

>weak middlebrow shit

you're more pretentious than the melon himself. those are his OPINIONS, HE TALKS ABOUT WHAT HE THINKS IS INTERESTING. JUST BECAUSE YOU DISAGREE WITH HIS CHOICES OF MUSIC TO REVIEW DOESN'T MAKE THEM WRONG. You can't debate that. Music is literally the most subjective shit.

>when he tries for broader analysis than "abrasive synths" or whatever he's possibly even worse.

an example would be great for something he's possibly even worse at, or whatever.

>his reviews get treated as gospel or at the very least as an important opinion
No. People disagree with his videos as much as they agree. Slowdive self titled, OPN r plus seven, Childish Gambino Camp, any Lana album. off the top of my head, instances of his subscribers going against him. And the only reason imo his opinion should be regarded at the very least as important, is because on plenty of occasions he disagrees with big websites like pitchfork and nme, and...he gives opinions on albums that are specific to the album.

>>73100239
The arctic monkeys are objectively awful. They're not a band they're just arrogant models. And all indie rock is terrible. It's just boring music for boring people.

>>73100528
Listening to every genre ever made over and over again trying to decide whether or not you like it is fucking retarded.

>>73100549
I do hate Alex's persona and am not a big fan of their last two albums but Humbug, Whatever People Say I Am.., and FWN are fantastic rock albums.

>>73100528
i agree but pop punk is literally a sellout version of the punk movement

>>73100613
>thinking the punk movement wasn't part of the mainstream to begin with
lol someone played you hard

>>73100629
did you even read my post or are you retarded?

>>73100220
this
i was never a huge fan of him, but i liked some of his videos
lost all respect for him when he started being pals with sargon and that fucking cringelord chris ray gun
and when he appeared in this piece of shit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4lFSq_Efzk

>>73099319
California was a pile of shit

>>73100541
>Music is literally the most subjective shit.
Obviously lol

>an example would be great for something he's possibly even worse at, or whatever.
His Lil Yachty is punk video

But this is all just my opinion. Why do you and so many other ppl care in any way about this one particular critic though? He's not the most articulate, he's not the most knowledgeable, he's not the most convincing, he's not the funniest... there are dozens of critics I would point to before recommending Fantano to anyone. What's the appeal?

>>73100718
No, you're the retard who thinks punk ever had anti-mainstream integrity

>>73100629
>>73100744
for the most part, you're very wrong.
maybe it's true to say that punk was mainstream in late 70's britain, but that popularity died when punk stopped being a fashion trend, and it was never popular in the states until groups like blink and green day came along.

>>73100744
Crass and Fugazi did desu, not to mention hundreds of others

>>73100744
>i agree but pop punk is literally a sellout version of the punk movement
i didn't mention the mainstream at all you fucking autist

>>73100798
Yes you did by using the word "sellout".

>>73099465
Fantano the crusher

>>73100809
selling out their beliefs in terms of song writing is what i mean. punk is simple pop music that's rushed and full of energy. pop punk is completely unaware and focuses on prettiness and bullshit overdone song structures. no shit it's mainstream. it spawned fucking dozens of genres and inspired tons of mainstream music

8/10:
>strong production
>weak, boring lyrics
>awful singing
>says fuck donald trump twice, amerikkka xD black lives matter!
