Yep this was posted a while ago. I have to say this is the first Ae release that has failed to "grow" on me. I liked it the first time I listened to it, but I still feel the same way. I just like it, in an average sort of liking way. I agree it is probably a fair score.
Odd you should post this now because just 30 minutes ago I dropped my Draft Cd on the floor then stepped on it, nowit is ruined...and I wasn't even that bothered and won't buy it again...Oh well.

yeah, I read the review before... my first impressions of Draft 7.30 were good, yet it seems that was just the newness factor, as it has become quite dull to my ears... Confield is fantastic, but Draft is just dull to me... maybe that'll change, I don't know...

have any opinion on Draft that you monkeys want.. . but please dont read Pitchfork reviews.. . at least not seriously.. . they have some utter wank reviewers doing articles on bands that Im quite sure they have never listened too. ..

actually, I enjoy Pitchforks reviews... I always read reviews of albums when I buy them, I don't know why really, I just find it interesting to read how others find an album... and I really enjoy the reviews at Pitchfork a lot of the time... they're usually pretty interesting and different...
I remember one of their reviews they called something like the first truely sample based review or something... heh, cool idea! I forget what album it was for though, probably DJ Shadow or something like that...

no I havent read that one in particular I dont think ? but I have read too many other reviews on that site to have any respect for them.. . of course the reviews are giving their own opinions.. . but I really wish theyd get people to review albums that they at least had a passing interest in the style alone if nothing else. ..

i dislike pitchfork in general (see this thread) but i've been pleasantly surprised with their recent reviews of blur (maybe their positive review is just another gimmick but it was refreshing surprise considering the low score i forecasted) and autechre (it wasn't that brutal really and the album ain't all that good). most of their reviews that i read are still wack but they're doing better. their news site needs work though. they need to get off buddyhead's dick.

I read Pitchfork every once in a while, I enjoy the reviews (SOME of them!) but don't really... ''trust'' them... really, I only trust Allmusic.com when it comes to getting ideas of where to go next regarding an artist. I must have a browserpage open to Allmusic 24/7. :-l
