Seriously? 9.2? The Modern Lovers is a 12.0. And a review actually talking about the music and the context surrounding the album? Please. "Roadrunner" is more memorable than any neutered indie rock they rave about. "Pablo Picasso" and "I'm Straight" are more amusing than any hipster comic on Matador, or Geffen or whatever no-name indie label they are getting paid to promote. And "Hospital" is more moving and emotional than anything that Gym Class Fallout that Pitchfork has been creaming their girl jeans about ever wrote.
Who else is with me and is "over" Pitchfork. This is Web 2.0. If I say The Modern Lovers is a 12.0, then I should be able to go edit the review and give it the correct rating.
Full Version: The downfall of Pitchfork, Pt. 2
worthwhile point, though I'd say it's like a 9.8
what's next? are they going to give Pet Sounds a 7.5?
man I miss the days when Pitchfork weren't afraid to look like assholes
check out j kleins other reviews, he's total shit
albums I own and pretty much never feel like listening to, but will probably never part with.
abba, byrds and elvins, that i can understand. but modern lovers!!! 
people who don't feel like listening to modern lovers are strange
