What would Vision of Bodies Being Burned sound like if clipping. made scary movies rather than just liked them?

That review is terrible, but most of their clipping reviews have been. It's getting clowned in the clipping thread.
― soaring skrrrtpeggios (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Monday, 26 October 2020 13:59 (three years ago) link
Not sure why they even bother reviewing clipping anymore. The reviews are basically the same pan over and over.

I got excited for a second for that Menswe@r review though, hoping to see a Ned byline but uh... no.

I'd like to see Stephen Kearse's pitch, "Remember that clipping album I gave 4.5 to last year? Well, there's a new album of leftover tracks from the sessions for it and I think the people are dying to hear my opinion."

I don't think I've consciously heard a single track by clipping., Do they have a rabid fan base?

Thanks Ned, I had read that one already - was just hoping you had another outlet to share your wisdom with.

One exception is “Truckin’,” the album closer, an easygoing ode to the open highway that became an anthem for Deadheads and for freaks and hippies more generally.
errr that's not at all what that song is about

If you enjoy tortuous, paragraph-long paraphrasing of song lyrics, the new Tigermilk review is for you.

looking at p4k's reviews over the past month or so--very heavy with reissue and retrospective reviews. Release schedule must be light for some reason.

I think I'm paying attention to different music than y'all, because to me it's been a banner year for electronic music and jazz and all kinds of releases, even with the pandemic. Hell, there are tons of great pandemic albums.

i think it’s the opposite, pandemic seems to have made bands that would’ve spent the year touring go back into the studio. like every band has released an album this year?

There is tons of new music; they really shouldn’t be reviewing a Wilco reissue on a Friday.
