i hope her team didn’t forget to send an album for Grammys bc she’s getting one 

[White Hot]

I'm so happy about the pitchfork review, I did not expect the score to be so high

[theeternalstars]

Oh my god 9.4 is beyond my wildest expectations I can’t breathe I can’t breathe

[SweetHenny]

LEGENDS ONLY! OUR QUEEN IS FINALLY GETING THE ACCLAIM SHE DESERVES 

[theeternalstars]

this is for sure gonna push the metacritic score up - pitchfork holds a LOT of sway

[Beautiful Loser]

I read Pitchfork’s review and I really didn’t think they’d give her 9 or higher but aaaahhhhh, that review made me smile so much, I’m so happy!!

"The languor of Mazzy Star and downbeat skitter of Portishead meet the easy pop-rock breeze of Carole King on 1971’s Tapestry, or the searching resilience of Joni Mitchell on 1972’s For the Roses."

 

Pitchfork really made me shiver with these!! So proud of her

[Charlottexseax]

Actually

red is for notes higher than 9

No the red (and the arrows) is for every score higher than 8

Given all the fuck ups I wouldn't be at all surprised if they didn't submit it in time or something.

Think it's actually for best new music?

[kitschesque]

"Whatever it was that brought Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen together half a century ago, that middle ground is in the solemn mood, hollowed space, and spiritual fortitude of this haunting song"

 

HOPE finally getting the recognition it deserves!

[CatchTheBreeze]

Wow, the Pitchfork article really made me emotional. Lana finally entered the well guarded sacred music critics territory.

It's the same thing. Red circle, arrows and "best new music" are the same thing

 

[ArtDecoDelRey]

oh my god this is so amazing im so happy for her this is so sweet awww i love her

[takeitdoen]

hey qween, girl you have done it again. Constantly raising the bar for us all, and doing it flawlessly. I'd say I'm surprised, but I know who you are - I've seen it up close and personal. Girl you make me so proud. And I love you.

Yeah ik, was just saying that 'best new music' (red arrows, circle etc.) is independent of score. Like some albums will have a score of 8+ and not be considered 'best new music', think its only given on a weekly basis.

Ok I see what you mean

 

Pitchfork reviews both old and new albums. When they’re reviewing an old album, like for example I just read a Sonic Youth review, even if the score is high they don’t label it as best new album because it’s old

If they’re reviewing an album as it comes out, and the score is high, they give it best new music status
