>hurr Durr check me out guys. I'm contrarian as fuck and will shit on anything popular. Even if the artist is genuinely good I will only give high scores to their obscure unpopular albums and crap over their famous ones
Why do we listen to him again?
>Appetite for Destruction - 8/10
The Doors and Bob Dylan are two incredibly famous bands/musicians and he praises them. So he doesn’t just “shit in anything popular” as you say. Also, “we” don’t listen to him. Scaruffi gets posted a lot, but there’s no rule that you have to listen to what he says to
Christgau is an even worse contrarian than Scaruffi. He'll shit on good albums for literally no reason
This is still so baffling to me, how the fuck do you give garbage-tier G&R anything more than like a 3/10
>Blonde on blonde is his best album
>Blood on the tracks? Fuck that shit lol
Yeah
Shut the fuck up zoomer
>Contrarianism
>Blonde on Blonde - 9
>The Doors - 9
>Loveless - 9
>The River - 8.5
>In the Court of the Crimson King - 8.5
>Perfect From Now On - 8.5
>Songs of Leonard Cohen - 8.5
>The Downward Spril - 8.5
>Exile On Main Street - 8
>Tonight's the Night - 8
>Jagged Little Pill - 8
I could go on but I feel like I've made clear
guns and roses are pretentious racist fucking bigots so fuck their music, i'd rather have someone pour hot piss in my ears than listen to that trash, but nice bait
Based Axl working zoomers into a seethe
I feel like the only reason his ratings are even slightly controversial are because we're used to much more inflated scales. A 6 from him is "buy it if you're a fan." That's still more or less a positive score. Whereas with p4k or Melon a 6 is basically "not worth your time."
You're a "soi" and a "cuck" away from a Connect 4, keep going.
GET FUCKING BACK TO FUCKING STUPID SHIT RADIOHEAD, THIS IS NOT FOR YOU
>pretentious racist fucking bigots
Christgau might be a retarded boomer but he actually understands the significance of the album he's reviewing, it's just a dice roll whether it jives with him or not.
>Blonde on blonde is his best album
One of his most famous and beloved albums? Not controversial
>Blood on the tracks? Fuck that shit lol
An album which received mixed-negative reviews when first released but was later re-evaluated? I guess he doesn’t agree with the re-evaluation
Why is scaruffi so good at making redditors seethe into oblivion?where do I learn this ability?
just be a contrarian little shit who isn’t qualified to critique film let alone music
This. I thought Scaruffi was a contrarian until reading Christgau's stuff. Now Scaruffi looks like a normalfag.
based scaruffi drone
I literally said I thought Scaruffi was a contrarian I can't be a drone
I’m amazed at how retarded people like OP are every time a similar thread is posted. The beauty of opinions is that you DONT HAVE TO AGREE WITH EVERYTHING OTHER PEOPLE SAY. You can use Scaruffi to find some more experimental artists he likes and use some other source to find poppier releases. Holy shit, it’s like you can’t formulate your own taste in things. Embarrassing OP
>and will shit on anything popular
He likes The Doors, Bob Dylan, and Bruce Springsteen. Nearly all of his 8+/10s are popular, cult classics, or influential in some way.
so what i’m able to discern from this is that you don’t think fantano is a faggot?
faggot
Of course not. He’s just another person with an opinion. Doesn’t match mine and maybe doesn’t match yours. Don’t like it, don’t watch it. It’s not rocket science
I immediately know someone is a brainless drone whenever their favorite Nick Cave album is The Good Son. That's gotta be one of his most retarded opinions.
It’s like a 90s Disney soundtrack. I like it, but don’t know why he likes it so much
im sorry you can't handle someone having their own opinions maybe go outside
>not liking based Scaruffi
"yeah yeah yeah"
what did you email?
scruffy may be a retard but he is a based retard and I have respect for his drones. fantano drones on the other hand can gtfo to youtube instagram and reddit
I don't hate him, I just wanna know why his articles on most bands are objective and informative, but his article on The Beatles reads like a less racist, better vocab version of Encyclopedia Dramatica.
Scaruffi's entire career is being pissed about other people's opinions lol
He doesn't even critique the beatles, he critiques what he thinks people that like the Beatles think
>The Beatles are bad because people say they are important!
>career
Scaruffi is based because he's an old man. Ever since my grandfather died, I've developed respect for older men in all fields, real or fiction, even anime and movies
few things as pathetic as making a strawman of an argument that belongs to someone that isnt even here,not like it surprises me from a beatlefag,though
I think he's just pissed because people think the Beatles are the most innovative band of the 60's when they aren't, let alone of all times. If the Beatles were an obscure band nobody knows of I'm sure all their albums would be rated +1
because it's better/funnier coming from a wealthy urbane old Italian instead of some hipster faggot on youtube
