The Most Pretentious Album Review Ever!

[masterofwined]

If you think Pitchforks review of Kid A was bad, then get a load of this.

The Beta Band | Pitchfork

 

[Al A]

...........?????

 

[LeadaLegacy]

what does this Brent DiCrescenzo guy take when writing his reviews?
I read the kid a one after this and he was rarabling on and I could only understand every other word lol

 

[sweetjan20]

All I needed to see was the name "Brent DiCrescenzo" at the end to know you were right.

 

[toxicity]

That must have been some acid trip.

 

[Ad Steiny]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL


I can't even read it it's so ridiculous.


On a completely unrelated note, is the album actually any good?

 

[P.B.]

That was friggen appalling.

 

[mamadot]

it's a ridiculous review, but really I'm now very curious to listen to the album...anybody listened to it yet?

 

[DontTreadOnMe Vol. 2]

Is that guy on acid?

 

[Patrick B]

I have to say though, it sparked my interest.

 

[Carrie M]

That was worse than actually listening to the album.

 

[Beyond Mordant]

Is the link messed up...or was it basically a story that had nothing to do with the actual music...

 

[Nich!]

The Sunn O))) White1 review is alot worse.

I thought it was hilarious. It seemed pretty obviously meant to be over-the-top, not serious writing (and yes, I'm familiar with both Pitchfork's reviews and DiCrescenzo's writing). I didn't read every word (even for something meant to be crazily elaborate, it was far too long) but the concept was absurd and funny.

"Now we make music."

 

[Bryan W Gaint]

Did J.R.R. Tolkien write that review?

 

[Fawnish]

lol seriously?

 

[zamzam]

HAHA WOW
