Didn't they give Holly Herndon an 8.7 like a year ago? And Twigs an 8.8? and Bjork a 8.6? Those are just off the top of my head. I thought 8.5 for Grimes and Beyonce were pretty fair for both of those albums. But yes, I agree that p4k's female bnm's are typically lower than their male counterparts.
WHY IS EVERYONE GETTING CANCER? MY GOD This upsets me greatly, if not already obvious from the all-caps. Glad to see they've already raised 50k. I will definitely be donating.
Oh god, just revisited that list and saw that Lana Del Rey was a place ahead of Swans. What in the world.
Right? Mutant is definitely in my top LPs this year and it's sad to see it get snubbed. I felt the same with OPN's album last week.
I have not stopped listening to Garden of Delete since it leaked like a month ago. Easily one of my favorite albums of the year which is saying a lot. I can't believe this isn't getting more love, this song in particular might be one of the best things Daniel has done.
Yeah we get it Tom, you hate Ariel Pink.
I was hoping Lover Boy would get more love, so underrated in his discography. Also, Mature Themes ahead of pom pom is just flat out wrong, no other way to put it.
Album: Ariel Pink - pom pom Song: Sun Kil Moon - I Watched the Film the Song Remains the Same There were albums I probably liked more than pom pom, but I that one out of my top 5 has the best chance of winning. The other ones didn't get really much coverage here so it would kind of be a wasted vote. But the other 4 albums that I probably enjoyed the most this year (in no particular order): Ricky Eat Acid - Three Love Songs Giant Claw - DARK WEB c l e a n e r s - Real Raga Shit, Vol. 1 Objekt - Flatland Also really loved Alex G - DSU.
Columbus is the shit. Matthew Greensleeves is boring.
Holy shit, that's incredible. Can't wait to read this.
Yeah, the whole Wayne and Miley thing is kind of ridiculous, but I don't see what the fuss is about. They're not doing anything wrong or hurting anybody, and yeah the film isn't good but who was seriously expecting anything otherwise? I think it's fun to watch musicians goofing off and taking a piss sometimes, which was what I took from this. If you it's not your thing, that's fine. But it's nothing to get upset over.
i really really want to hear this actually
I think Era Vulgaris is such an underrated record, it always is everyone's least or second-least favorite QotSA album (which is understandable, the other ones are also great) but i don't know, the A Side is just so fucking killer. That said, you guys should DEFINITELY do a worst-to-best Phil Elverum list.
No way, the Glow Pt. 2 also was (is) the soundtrack to my college malaise and post-adolescent loneliness! It sure did get better, didn't it? (.....didn't it?)
Is it weird that I still listen to the August and September mixes pretty regularly? Because those were great, can't wait to listen to this one.
yes yes yes yes yes ....yes.
...you know you don't have to hate somthing just because a lot of other people like it, right?
Chloe Moretz?! When the hell did she grow up?
Am I the only one who thought pretty much everyone killed it? I'm not getting what seems to be offending everyone. Thank you stereogum for delivering again and again
I feel like a lot of the vocal melodies are kind of forced and monotonous to be honest, and I can't say a single one jumped out at me the way, say, take pills or bros did. Hell, I don't even remember most of them. But that was after one listen, maybe I'll like it more the next couple times around. And even though it probably wouldn't have fit well on the album, I still wish Atiba Song made the cut...such a great song.
