i mean, i'm not really interested in defending p4k, but surely some of that has to do with the fact that bands like Arcade Fire, Cut Copy, Wolf Parade, Beirut, and Modest Mouse haven't put out anything as good as their mid-00s albums? i think a gradual score decline for those bands is completely fair.
you are talking about stereogum commenters, people who regularly champion extreme metal and hardcore. we love vulgar, edgy music. a band called pissgrave gets a lot of love around here. it's just that there's a difference between being edgy and being a regressive troll. it's really not that complicated.

Its not what you did, its not what you didn't
God gave her the perfect body now I'm all up in it
Its not she's a tramp, its not she's not pure
She just likes getting her fuck on
And it's a good one of that I'm sure
...i've never heard of this song but this is poetry right here
did y'all hear that some rando on 4chan apparently leaked All Lights Fucked On the Hairy Amp Drooling???

i was a fan of the daily show in the stewart days but it was always disingenuous to pretend that just because it had jokes, it wasn't also pointed political commentary with a specific agenda.
i'm a big Tull fan because of my dad, but they haven't put out an album since the abysmal J-Tull Dot Com in '99 and Ian has become such an old crank that i honestly wasn't expecting any sort of comeback. i have to admit i'm morbidly curious.
check out Pat Metheny's "New Chautauqua", it scratches that laid back instrumental Americana itch for me. Chuck Johnson also does some very cool stuff in a more ethereal vein but still kind of Americana. in the Mort Garson ballpark, you might like Laurie Spiegel's The Expanding Universe, it's full of playful synth stuff. sometimes it dips into ambient but there's usually more going on than that. on the post rock side, it sounds like Do Make Say Think would probably be up your alley. oh and Mary Lattimore is just the best at making relaxing but engaging instrumental music.
