ha ha shiiiit this is like Essence of Pitchforkmedia:
"The experience and emotions tied to listening to Kid A are like witnessing the stillborn birth of a child while simultaneously having the opportunity to see her play in the afterlife on Imax.
It's an album of sparking paradox. It's cacophonous yet tranquil, experimental yet familiar, foreign yet womb-like, spacious yet visceral, textured yet vaporous, awakening yet dreamlike, infinite yet 48 minutes.
It will cleanse your brain of those little crustaceans of worries and inferior albums clinging inside the fold of your gray matter."

One cool spiel that will always stick with me is the ''Warp remixers are the pirates with hookhands and golden eyepatches that are contracted to look after your children even though they clearly shouldn't be allowed to'' or whatever. I kind of like Pitchfork though, there are reviewers to avoid but some of them are sweeties.

thing with pitchfork is you end hating them but you are genuinely pleased when an album you like gets a good review by them

I love how the paradox-bit ends with "..infinite yet 48 minutes".
that just makes you think "cooome ooon.. they're joking, right?"

They should say, "It's the best album to ever grace the ears of mankind, yet pardoxically it's complete horse shit."
I read a review there where the reviewer said that one of the main reasons that they gave the album a low score was because "it's a 'slowcore' band, but there's too many instruments in the mix for it to be slowcore".

pitchfork rules.
the difference between watmm and xltronic is that watmmers secretly love pitchfor and xltronicers secretly want to work in pitchfork.

Did they ever review Pablo Honey? I'd like to see that. It'd probably be like.. "On one hand this is our beloved Radiohead, but on the other hand it's... kind of... in a way... slightly-semi-mediocre... moderate radio-friendly-ish rock..... \\Can't compute / activate self-destruct sequence."
