They do like Radiohead over there.

we used to refer to Ryan P*fork as a 'stunt reviewer' back in the PFMS mkI days

― chris andrews (fraew), Friday, 16 April 2004 04:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Some of these are really weird (Odds & Sods??!?!?.) Who the hell are Walt Mink and the 12 Rods anyway?

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Friday, 16 April 2004 04:20 (twenty-two years ago)

the only one that stands out as reeeely bizarre and probably untenable is the Trail of Dead record. It's pretty good but there's some really wince-inducing lyrics.

― Kevin Erickson, Friday, 16 April 2004 04:23 (twenty-two years ago)

I Agree with them on most of those

― Dude (The Yellow Dart), Friday, 16 April 2004 04:25 (twenty-two years ago)

(x-post)Yeah, but it was definitely the LOOK AMERINDIE IS STILL GREAT AND WE WILL REP FOR IT RECORD OF THE MOMENT a couple of years ago.

Well at least for an indie website.

― jack cole (jackcole), Friday, 16 April 2004 04:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Walt Mink and 12 Rods are both Minneapolis bands, right? Which is where Schreiber lived when he started the website in college. If you'll notice, the only reviews on the site from 1995-97 or so are by Schreiber or that Jason Josephes fellow. And they're very short.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 16 April 2004 04:59 (twenty-two years ago)

ONE OF MINE! YEAH! WHOOOAH, BOO-YA! I LOVE PITCHFORK! not like I made the album or put it out to begin with, but still...Wish they'd review the Metal Urbain CD already...hope they like Branca Lesson No. 1 reissue half as much... love dan

but Pink Floyd Animals? and I'm a longtime old-school Pink Floyd fan, but Animals gets a ten?

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 16 April 2004 06:32 (twenty-two years ago)

but Animals gets a ten?

yeah, because it's their best album. :) (mind you I always thought this was a personal preference)

― Omar (Omar), Friday, 16 April 2004 06:54 (twenty-two years ago)

The album that has the insufferably maudlin "Pigs on a Wing" gets a 10...oh MAN.

― Thomas Tallis (Tommy), Friday, 16 April 2004 06:58 (twenty-two years ago)

98% of these are remasters, rereleases, etc. Generally accpeted classic album = 10. Yawn.

― Mike Salmo (salmo), Friday, 16 April 2004 13:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Wait... if _El Producto_ gets a 10, does _Bareback Ride_ get a 15? Does _Miss Happiness_ get a 200?

(The Amon Tobin ranking is completely OTM, though.)

Oh come ON.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 16 April 2004 13:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Pink Floyd: Animals? I mean, it's kind of OK but honestly...

― Dadaismus (Dada), Friday, 16 April 2004 13:58 (twenty-two years ago)

the albums that get ten are either boringly obvious or annoyingly bizarre (in other words, i want to have my pitchfork-bashing cake and eat it!)

― weasel diesel (K1l14n), Friday, 16 April 2004 14:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Loaded is one of only two albums that I'd give a 10 to on that list.

― Johnney B (Johnney B), Friday, 16 April 2004 14:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Seriously? Loaded? 9 at best.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 16 April 2004 14:12 (twenty-two years ago)

_Animals_ is far and away the best Pink Floyd album (and that is not damning with faint praise, I actually LIKE PINK FLOYD OH NO ILM MUST STONE THE INFIDEL).

― VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 16 April 2004 14:17 (twenty-two years ago)

I always knew you were a dork.

― The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 16 April 2004 14:18 (twenty-two years ago)

Adventure seems quite underrated compared to the 10 that Marquee Moon gets (and deserves). Adventure would be at least a 9.1 in my landscape.

― southern lights (southern lights), Friday, 16 April 2004 16:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Raw Power is good, but not a ten. Slanted and Enchanted was not a ten. This Nation's Saving Grace is only a ten if about ten other Fall albums are also ten. Loaded is not a ten.

Odds and Sods is not a ten!!!!!!!

― Tim Ellison, Friday, 16 April 2004 16:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Neither was Kid A, OK Computer or The Soft Bulletin. Although Ascension was good, it still isn't a 10.0.

― Ds (ikue mori), Friday, 16 April 2004 16:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Way to go out on a limb and call the guy with "harvard.edu" in his email address a dork, Huck! ;-)

― VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 16 April 2004 16:57 (twenty-two years ago)

You don't think it's 10? I guess that would make that the opinion of person who reviewed the album then, huh? Interesting, very interesting.

― David Allen (David Allen), Friday, 16 April 2004 17:04 (twenty-two years ago)

live at the apollo is definitely a ten

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Friday, 16 April 2004 17:13 (twenty-two years ago)

PF should really leave alone the canonized reissues.

― Al (sitcom), Friday, 16 April 2004 17:15 (twenty-two years ago)

WHEREZ SKYNDRD ON THEIR LIST

― Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 16 April 2004 17:58 (twenty-two years ago)

whom I really do like

― Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 16 April 2004 17:59 (twenty-two years ago)

this is a fair list of good albums but pfork is seriously guilty (always been guilty) of grade inflation for good albums.

i think at a certain point pfork should adopt the richter scale or something: so that a 8.0 is ten times better than an 7.0, and a 9.0 is ten times better than an 8.0. that'll weed out those spurious 10.0 albums real fast.

― vahid (vahid), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:14 (twenty-two years ago)

The 10.0 looks more discriminating if you consider that the rating has only gone to a couple dozen albums out of the nearly 5,000 reviews now in the Pitchfork archives.

But it is interesting that we haven't given out a 10.0 to a new album for a couple years. Maybe the rating is too inaccessible/canonical ... Trail of Dead doesn't hold up to my ears, but I like that Ryan took a chance on it.

― Chris Dahlen (Chris Dahlen), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Its not all that many 10s considering how many albums they reviewed. (xpost) Whatever the albums were that got 10s theyd be getting shit for it. The 0s and 10s are probably the only ones you can trust as actual opinions anyway because I assume a lot of the rest are based on whos advertising w/them or things of that nature.

So Chris Dahlen do you all have some kind of conference call when 10s are decided?

― christhamrin (christhamrin), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Hahaha conference call.

― christhamrin (christhamrin), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:40 (twenty-two years ago)

I like Wilco, but who the fuck gives Wilco a ten for anything they've done?

― Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:43 (twenty-two years ago)

i remember a spin anniversary issue waaaay back when they chose the 100 best singles of all time. #1 was "it takes two". i think the point was that the best song of all time may just be the one you want to play over and over again *right at that moment*. Can you really knock a college kid for giving his favorite band of the moment a 10/10 (Walt Mink / 12 Rods)? Eh, it may make me feel better because time has proven otherwise, but fuck all, I would have given a ton of albums a 10/10 upon first two weeks worth of listens only to have time prove me wrong. Maybe I'll start my first thread on that same subject.

― jds, Friday, 16 April 2004 18:46 (twenty-two years ago)

So Chris Dahlen do you all have some kind of conference call when 10s are decided?

Ha - no, it's not that sacred. It's all up to Ryan. I sent in my 10.0's and he went with them.

― Chris Dahlen (Chris Dahlen), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Well you should start now. This is serious business man.

― christhamrin (christhamrin), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:50 (twenty-two years ago)

I think people got a little gun shy after there were two 10.0s for new releases in one year (Trail of Dead & Wilco). I think a 10 is discussed a bit between Ryan and the writer (I wouldn't know -- never given one.) No conference call. (x-post)

― Mark (MarkR), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:50 (twenty-two years ago)

I assume a lot of the rest are based on whos advertising w/them or things of that nature.

This should be obvious, but I've never set a rating based on anything but what I thought it deserved, and Ryan has almost never disagreed with or tried to sway a rating, especially for financial reasons.

― Chris Dahlen (Chris Dahlen), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:51 (twenty-two years ago)

That Walt Mink record deserves, at it's very best, a 10 out of a 100.

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)

(See above point re: _El Producto_ vs _Miss Happiness_)

― VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:53 (twenty-two years ago)

I have two cousins in 12 Rods and I never understood who their audience was or why they were signed to V2 (second after Mercury Rev!)... then I saw the Pitchfork thing and it all made sense. Then their second album came out, big budget, produced by Rundgren, Pitchfork hated it, band unceremoniously dropped from V2, banished to the netherworld...

― Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 16 April 2004 18:54 (twenty-two years ago)

That Walt Mink record deserves, at it's very best, a 10 out of a 100.

10 out 100? you mean a 1.0 out of 10.0, right? what's with the decimals, anyway? is there that much nuance between a 6 and a 7?

― jds, Friday, 16 April 2004 18:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Many years ago Pitchfork ratings were given percentage grades (i.e. 73%). They were converted to number ratings with a decimal around 1999.

― Mark (MarkR), Friday, 16 April 2004 18:58 (twenty-two years ago)

I have two cousins in 12 Rods

You're cousin to the Olcotts? Small world! (I know Evan slightly through the MBV list he ran, which is actually how I heard about 12 Rods in the first place -- I still get random mailouts.)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 16 April 2004 19:00 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah, we have an oddly musical family. Evan and Ryan are my 1st cousins, and we're also cousins with Jon "Quitty" Quittner (guitarist for Tight Bros from Way Back When and bassist in Behead the Prophet), and then my brother Jay runs ARTHUR.

We should put together some kind of multi-media world tour...

Are the LPs valuable or something?

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 03:52 (twenty-two years ago)

If you have an original pressing of the first album they handed out to friends and sold a few of (it was repressed last year) ---> yes, they are worth money.

Otherwise, they are worth less than you paid for them, I'd bet.

― ___ (___), Wednesday, 28 April 2004 15:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, I think the most obvious precursor to BoC is The Black Dog, especially on "Spanners". I admit I've re-evaluated my views towards "Music Has to Right to Children", and I don't hate it anymore. When it came out it was so much hype I expected too much of it, and was obviously disappointed. The album has interesting sound, but most of the tracks sound the same, and they lack any kind of development (I know this isn't necessarily a bad thing), which makes the LP a somewhat bland listening. I wish it would've had more tracks like "Telephasic Workshop", which is the one standout moment. Anyway, I think Two Lonely Swordsmen did the Mouse-on-Mars-plays-the-blues trick better with "Stay Down".

Proof that Boards of Canada is the "token electronic act" for indie-rockers (from today's Pitchfork review of Erlend Oye's DJ Kicks):

"Dance music is pretty gay.

Let's not beat around bush, my stalwart indie-rocking comrades: In our world, lyrics can be heartfelt, songs can be ironic, albums can be post-grammatological, and occasionally, guitars can be acoustic. But unless there's some punk behind that disco, we aren't likely to indulge in dance music too often-- let alone dance to it. Because unlike indie rock, dance music's all the same, it's gay, and if it's in Massachusetts, its equal marriage rights are probably going to be denied.

Wait a second: Is it 1998 again? Because I remember more than a few of us thought the same thing about IDM, until we were all persuaded to pick up Boards of Canada's Music Has the Right to Children. It was electronica and it was taboo, but we purchased in good faith because it was on Matador, a label we trusted. Boy, did we love the shit out of it-- and there weren't even guitars!"

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Friday, 7 May 2004 15:57 (twenty-two years ago)

that irked me when i read it this morning.

boards of canada was NOT a gateway electronic act for EVERYONE.

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 7 May 2004 16:01 (twenty-two years ago)

electronica, taboo, matador, trust??

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 7 May 2004 16:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Burger/Ink's Las Vegas (also licensed by Matador in the USA) is much much more relevant to Erlend Oye's DJ Kicks than Music Has The Right To Children.

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 7 May 2004 16:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Reviewer apparently doesn't like soul music precedents in dance music. It's gotta be punk.

what's wrong with not liking dance music? Pitchfork doesn't have to speak for you.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 7 May 2004 16:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Dominique Leone likes dance music a lot, fwiw. It looks to me like he was addressing what he perceives re the attitude of the indie rock massive to dance music.

― Mark (MarkR), Friday, 7 May 2004 16:52 (twenty-two years ago)

"post-grammatological"

this actually made laugh out loud. I'd like to thank whoever wrote that for my first good chuckle of the day.

I bet the chick who wrote that review is pretty hott. I wonder if she likes the boredoms?

Like Mark says, I think it's meant to be tongue in cheek.

― scott pl. (scott pl.), Friday, 7 May 2004 17:00 (twenty-two years ago)

I really didn't post this to make fun of rockists or anything. I just wanted to point out how BoC have become this touchstone electronic act for indie rockers.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 7 May 2004 17:03 (twenty-two years ago)

(My mistake, for some reason I thought Dom wrote it. But yes, the above applies to Nick too.)

― Mark (MarkR), Friday, 7 May 2004 17:03 (twenty-two years ago)

but can you dance to boards of canada? maybe on whippets?

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 7 May 2004 17:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Re. oops' post: He doesn't have to like dance music! But is he REALLY saying that he doesn't like any dance music that has soul music precedents and no punk precedents or is he just making a non-funny, blanket statement "joke," thinking that he's really tellin' the truth and being provocative?

― Tim Ellison, Friday, 7 May 2004 17:08 (twenty-two years ago)

this seems to completely not acknowledge that most of BOC's music is rooted in hip-hop beats.

― hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 7 May 2004 17:09 (twenty-two years ago)

I mean it's a semi-charming thesis that electronic dance music comes solely from disco (and maybe one cribbed from ILM?) but it's pretty patently stupid on its face.

― hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 7 May 2004 17:11 (twenty-two years ago)

cutty, he doesn't say BoC is dance music!

anyway, if ppl want a PFM dance music-related abomination, it's elsewhere on the page...I'm off to stick my head into a hole in the ground.

yes, that is regrettable (see also: the ex-assertion that is c. dodd was a 'dub pioneer') - I guess ya gotta ignore the facts and work to connect the old-timey stuff to contemporary things the indie kids like and understand in order to justify writing about them on the site. ;)

That p-fork review quoted above is so obviously poking fun at BoC's status as being safe for indie kids. I love MHTRTC, and I think it's 10.0 is definitely deserved. I also hope that Geogaddi will eventually be regarded as highly -- I feel like it's been shortchanged in a way, although I know of a lot of people who like it a great deal. It just doesn't feel like there's as much of a consensus about it.
