    Honestly I’m just thrilled when someone respects an album as a cohesive experience rather than selecting a vibe and just listening to whatever a platform decides to stream to you.

    lol tf is with the critic slander in the comments? No theyre not all bitter art scool dropouts 😂 know a bunch personally, most are acadamics and experts in some sort of cultural and or medial analysis whther that be focused on institutions, society or pure aesthetics.

    most by far, in my country at least, are basically art professors with a side hustle…

    this circlejerking seems so strange to me. Even fantano is for the most part v reasomable. Hes been saying “this is my personal opinion, and its okay to disagreee” for like plus 10 years, pretending hes some sort of gatekeeping elitist is really getting silly at this point

    I don’t like to view critics reviews about stuff I like. It just makes me sad if they say bad things about it and make it sound like they know what they are talking about.

    • We just don’t need to take his opinion as unarguable truth

      Taking any critic’s opinion as the truth is crazy. Do we really just not know what a review is? Sure they say whether they liked something or not, but the point is that they describe it well enough that you can make a more educated guess about whether you’ll like something or not regardless of what their score is. He does a decent job of that.
