What? Pitchfork gave this over a 9? I really liked it, but I didn't they'd give it a best new music. I saw Embryonic was in that club, which I agree with. But there's no way Girls is on par with that. I'd be really interested in seeing how they do their ratings, I sometimes wonder if they throw a dart to determine a score between 6 and 9 for some things. Like, I noticed Memory Tapes and Warm Heart of Africa. Now don't get me wrong, I posted both of those a while ago and they're good, but there's no way in hell they deserves a best new music. According to the number of albums that get that, that means those are pretty much their top 25 of the year.
EDIT: And sorry asshat, I gotta disagree with you. Farm, Cathedral with No Eyes, Embryonic, A Sunny Day In Glasgow, Wind's Poem, and maybe Earthly Delights certainly deserve a 9 on their rating scale, but that's all I can think of right now. None of the stuff they gave it to.
