Honestly a high school drop out would have written a better review it’s very amateur. 10 Quote Arches are Illusions solid at first glance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BartenderDeco 19,636 Posted May 28, 2022 idk if i remember correctly but didn’t pitchfork say they listened to don’t forget early and loved it? 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildstar 1,119 Posted May 28, 2022 Don't Forget is amazing y'all just forgot what good music sounds like cause you haven't heard good music in almost 10 years Also that pitchfork article is clearly just bait lmao they knew they would get all the attention by bad mouthing a HIGHLY anticipated song every other critic is loving. (and it worked cause that article is probably getting tons of clicks/views) 21 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was really bummed hearing the official version, because I was really expecting major changes especially after hearing the clip she posted on her Instagram a few years ago… it sounds like the superior version & it’s rotting on her hard drive 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bonita 12,535 Posted May 28, 2022 i guess it does suck that it's unchanged but the official release is the first time i ever heard the song - and it has me excited about how she's gonna pull this album off 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sophiesmom 989 Posted May 28, 2022 sky's vocals being "drowned" has always been part of her signature sound, her voice being mixed between instruments rather than being in a privileged spot in the design is something that goes back to NTMT –for example: the whole album lmao but like boys, ain't your right, omanko etc. and the same applies for her "noisy production". sky's music is not for you if you consider don't forget "horribly mixed", and that's ok, but don't pretend like that's your hot take and not just a matter of personal preference. 24 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I apologize but H O W? The track having unexpected transitions ≠ being all over the place. I don't know if Sky wrote most of it but the lyrics are perfectly understandable and they match with the song's atmosphere and production 5 Quote "ser bella me dio privilegios, pero ser astuta me dio poder" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is what I'm wondering? I'm not a major fan but the drowned vocals have always been her thing right? And while I understand the disappointment on it maybe not changing much for it's demo form, still, Don't Forget it's not a track that sounds unfinished or that has amateurish production, this is not a Cherry Blossom, Nectar Of the Gods, Living Legend situation. At end of the day if she did changed or switched it up, the good sis probably would get dragged as well for ruining it and the version would probably be held as the superior one or whatever she really can't win 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lonely Planet 1,644 Posted May 28, 2022 Pitchfork is a dumpster fire. Their reviews can not be taken seriously. Didn’t they call Slayyyter a dumb slut when reviewing Troubled Paradise. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
