look at the outpouring of comments and down votes. its satisfying to see not just anyone can come up with a good caption. I'd be worried if I saw all green
interesting. im not aware of the politicking that goes on behind the scenes but i would be impressed if that kind of consideration and time was given to one record in particular when they are reviewing over 1,000 a year (a process that begins months before the number is published). historically speaking Lower Dens has seemingly plateaued over at P4k. if you recall Twin-Hand was reviewed much the same way upon its release critically speaking and it didn't get no year-end love. i'd guess the band isn't worried about it so thats probably all that matters!
why doesn't an 8.2 warrant a Best New Music from pitchfork? i know pitchfork produced their video for propagation...conflict of interest? that kind of thing can mean a lot to a band on the rise. im stumped.
