yeah, but which ones are the BNM you're referring to?
Not trying to sound obscure just don't want people to go tell me to listen to the latest irksome twee-pop female singer songwriter that they're tauting. They're a music publication, reviewing music is kinda their thing. I'd be shocked if they hadn't heard all the albums I had. But there's certain artists they deem cool and throw their weight behind, an avid follower like yourself must know that, right? |

Surf, In Colour, TPAB, If You're Reading This It's Too Late, Depression Cherry all got BNM
Just think it's funny when someone's like "I hate Pitchfork" and then they go on to demonstrate that their music taste seems very similar to a lot of the **** they give good reviews

I don't hate pitchfork, I think they've been good for the music industry.
Just don't want to be recommended the new Julia Holter or something of that ilk and be told it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. I heard Loud City Song which was similarly hyped. It bored me. |

and then the people that genuinely like Julia Holter are mindless pitchfork drones or some nonsense like that right

I've tried to give my opinions for why I like/don't like the albums I've heard from this year. Might not be a great writer but I've given it an attempt. It's all well and good to tell me To Be Kind is 5* and AOTY whilst not saying why and never playing it again after 2014 has ended. Just don't wanna put myself out there asking for recs and getting similarly sourced albums sent to me, that's all. |
