there's only 100/100 from Gigwise so far tho.

and they dont count for Meta 

 

But they still have Record Collector tho. Why they havent added it yet?

We should send an email and ask them to add those scores as @Xenoblade 2 said

The biggest mistake this album was the stunt either she or the UK label pulled with the reviews prior to release there

 

i still do not understand what the logic was with that

The way it was supposed to be to prevent an album leak when it leaked a week before release anyway

I mean we all hate fishtail lol

The real surprise for me is him liking Margaret so much it 'tore him apart emotionally'... really didn't see that one coming.

 

im sooooo curious to see what she's going to do next; is she going to build on Ocean Blvd and get that 10? is she going in a totally new direction (the closer on this album makes me think she could, although ive never really bought into the idea that her closer tracks are a peak into her next era) and how long until that work is released? Im already so impatient omg

[lmdr 10,905]

he is right. Fishtail is the worst song on the album

[Poor Stacy 12,095]

That's his loss. Fishtail is in my Top 5. 

 

But a 9/10 is a win for the culture. I just know the incel neckbeards and Sputnik dorks are SPIRALING right now.

Out of the songs on the back half, that's the song I thought he was going to actually enjoy! Pleasantly surprised by his review 

 

I love Fishtail

[Poor Stacy 12,095]

Yeah, no, we don't all hate Fishtail, and it isn't the worst track on the album. But thanks.

I haven't posted about this album yet, I remember trying to stay up till midnight to listen and my weak ass fell asleep. I listened to it the next night because it didn't feel right listening to this album in the day time for some reason. My overall favorites are Peppers and Kintsugi. This album is so much to take in. I need a few months to process. It's amazing and I love it but I can see my opinion about my favorites changing overtime.

And like WHEN has an album ever leaked from press copies? I might be mistaken but I’m fairly sure those are encrypted and protected somehow to prevent exactly that so even that reasoning makes no sense to me

You can email Metacritic to add reviews or remove them.

 

I wish this were true, but it isn't. I emailed them yesterday about Sputnik and The Quietus. I know a few others emailed about Sputnik, too. The 50 was still added and the other reviews were still left out - they don't care.  

 

That said, if y'all haven't emailed Metacritic about The Quietus and Record Collector reviews, feel free to do so, because it's stupid. editorial@metacritic.com

Fantano's karma for his 1/10 Ultraviolence review is that he is forever saddled with the worst fans/commenters this side of a Jordan Peterson video. If you want to hate humanity, check out the comments under this.

lmao first time I agree with Fantano. Fishtail should not have been on this album. Yes, I said it.

So true! There are no bad songs

Caring about music reviews is so boring honestly. Who cares what anyone thinks of something if you enjoy it yourself
