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

oh the shame

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."

I wish.

anyway... go against the grain? wtf are you talking about?
pitchfork's a better place (than this) to learn about new
artists/music.
