The Most Pretentious Album Review Ever!
 

If you think Pitchforks review of Kid A was bad, then get a load of this.

The Beta Band | Pitchfork

...........?????

All I needed to see was the name "Brent DiCrescenzo" at the end to know you were right.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL


I can't even read it it's so ridiculous.


On a completely unrelated note, is the album actually any good?

it's a ridiculous review, but really I'm now very curious to listen to the album...anybody listened to it yet?

Is that guy on acid?

Is the link messed up...or was it basically a story that had nothing to do with the actual music...

Did J.R.R. Tolkien write that review?

lol seriously?

HAHA WOW

what does this Brent DiCrescenzo guy take when writing his reviews?
I read the kid a one after this and he was rambling on and I could only understand every other word lol

That must have been some acid trip.

That was friggen appalling.

I have to say though, it sparked my interest.

That was worse than actually listening to the album.

The Sunn O))) White1 review is alot worse.

I thought it was hilarious. It seemed pretty obviously meant to be over-the-top, not serious writing (and yes, I'm familiar with both Pitchfork's reviews and DiCrescenzo's writing). I didn't read every word (even for something meant to be crazily elaborate, it was far too long) but the concept was absurd and funny.

"Now we make music."
