Same, it is really good for a jazz/ambient album.

I bet they’re regretting their choice of quirky outsider review now

At least the boomers will like it, as they love two things - the summer of '76 when another Greek singer with an amusing beard was a big star, and bigotry

Move over Milkshake Duck, now we have Metal Priest

I confess I posted this on 62 Best Albums of 2026 So Far - I need to assure you these are not my genuine real thoughts :joy: - I was just doing it to test the quality control standards of the comments moderators. Particularly as I wanted to see if standards have slipped since the Conde Nast takeover, and I don’t always think that, as many recent reviews I’ve found excellent… but OK, if they decided to publish this, some standards have slipped. :joy::person_facepalming:t2:

this made me look up when fish and chips actually cost 10p - apparently as recently as the 70s. paid £19 at the pub on sunday…

Jesus. I knew 10p went a lot further in the 70s but not that far. I’m sure at one point even in my adult lifetime (born in ‘85) I could get takeaway fish and chips, definitely takeaway pie and chips for within a fiver!

If Pitchfork rated fish and chips, what would be the score?

7.4

Unless it was a Paraguayan reinterpretation of fish and chips through a deconstructed club lens (9.3).

Or Weezer cooked them (1.4).

7.3 - They really like this specific score. In the last 12 reviews, they gave it 5 times.

Reading an account the other day of someone visiting Iron Curtain-era Hungary who went to a state-run restaurant and the “fish soup” was just a literal whole fish, in a bowl of water. Wonder which album Pitchfork will use that as a metaphor for their next 2.3/10
