I was surprised by Born To Die because it pioneered such a unique sound for its time and inspired so many people. It was iconic enough to launch her to worldwide fame, and the production on the album was excellent. To this day, it remains a fan favorite. I also liked that Fantano is able to acknowledge her latest work is great and that she's evolved so much as an artist-because she really has.
I was friggin disappointed when I listened to it. I heard quite a bit about Lana Del Ray, listened to Video Games, and found the CD at a book sale, so I was like sure, seems like itll be worth it! I enjoyed the first song...and then quickly got more and more bored as the songs went on. Most of them just sound too similar in production without memorable-enough writing to keep me engaged.
In a sense him reviewing with only his own opinions and preferences in his mind could be seen that way but he never prefaces his reviews as the objective truth, just opinion
The King Of Limbs may not hit the high standard that Radiohead albums usually hit, but LOTUS FLOWER, SEPARATOR, and MORNING MR MAGPIE are absolute bops imo
My opinion is that Morning Mr. Magpie, Little by Little, Lotus Flower, Codex, Give Up the Ghost, and Separator are all solid songs (a few of these are fantastic songs), leaving just 2 as real skips. But because the album is so short, and not all that cohesive, and its beauty is much more understated than albums like In Rainbows, everyone wrote it off as just "bad."

12:36 I've been watching both Fantano and Todd for well over a decade and this is the first time I've seen one reference the other. Y'all are long overdue for a collab.
Todd chimed into a "Let's Argue" like four or five years ago with a self deprecating tweet about how he's not a good music critic and Fantano argued that he was in fact a good music critic lol But yeah was into Todd for years before I ever even heard of Fantano, would love for them to Collab
@RileyRobertson-oi4fo Thanks! I completely forgot about that. The video is titled "Drake is the Nickelback of Rap." I love how Anthony tries to cheer Todd up.
This is seriously a horrible take. He says that none of the material from the album is better than anything from Live. Love. ASAP, but tracks like M's, Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2, and Canal St. are way better than some of the last few tracks on Live. Love. ASAP like acid Drip, Roll one up, and Out of this world. The majority of the tracks on At. Long. Last. ASAP are solid tracks if you ask me.
the most disappointing album review of 2024: Saying a woman battling leukaemia AND lupus has main character syndrome for writing an album about their experience
@@marioman863she can still talk about it?? Its not main character syndrome to use your platform, and art to cope with the pain you're going through. You can still suffer while going through treatment you can afford?
@@marioman863well in the album she actually goes into how doctors kept ignoring her and the prevalence of sexism when trying to be taken seriously, which people should care about and bring attention to!
People were so impressed with ASAP's debut project that anything that isn't better - even if it is solid in it's own right - is immediately labelled trash. It is a harsh standard other rappers aren't held to.
I think that if you look at Humanz as a producer record, is not bad at all. Is it much of a Gorillaz album? Nah. Does it have a lot of good tracks for other artists produced by Damon Albarn? Yes.
It’s not just the poor quality of PD that makes it disappointing, it’s coming off of 2 (3 imo) great albums that showed a ton of growth only to throw it all away. Disco sucks Rivers, remember?
putting aside thoughts on PD I think almost everyone can agree that Black is 10x worse lol, if PD "threw it all away" then Black burned everything down
How is At Long Last ASAP on this? Thats hands down his best project, Dangermouse's production is consistently amazing throughout. It set the bar so high, I don't see how he can ever top this project.
At long last asap is a great record but his best release feels debatable…maybe I’m dating myself here but live love asap to me remains unmatched in quality and consistency
Really surprised you went with Iridescence for BH instead of one of the last two albums. I relistened to it not that long ago and I feel like it hold up even better now that there’s been some time Edit: Lol oh yeah, 2010s. Duh. Still I do stand by that Iridescence holds up and I don’t think it was a disappointing album, even at the time. It was just a little different
Lana Del Rey's "Born to Die" is one of the MOST disappointing albums? I agree it was maligned at the time and took awhile to find its audience, but didn't it influence the next generation of pop divas as well as maintain a place on the record charts for over a decade? She's done better albums, yes, but I think this one has stood the test of time in different ways.
For sure, had its shortcomings but pretty much marked a change in the canon of pop and has withstood the test of time, remaining in the billboard hot 100 since its debut… melon is just not a Lana girlie lest we forget he gave UV a 2 😮💨
"Born to Die" on here is wild considering it has so many known tracks: The Title Track, Summertime Sadness, Blue Jeans, Dark Paradise, Video Games, Carmen, Diet Mountain Dew. I do not know what some critics said at the time, but as a teenager during that era it was very much loved and had a cultish following in the Tumblr Grunge Scene...to this day honestly.
so just cause a album has many known tracks means its good? So Astronaut in the ocean is amazing cause its so known? An album doesn't become "good" just because some songs are more famous than others.
Speaking of disappoinment, I always thought you could never top your horrible review of swimming, but I have to admit, you really outdid yourself this time
@@joaquin5929 I agree that swimming is a lot better, however I'm talking about how clueless and disrespectful Anthony was to the artist as a person and their struggles
@@joaquin5929 And you put pain and suffering in quotes because what? You don't believe there was pain and suffering. Melon fans trying to out-vile Melon in his defense are reading themselves for filth.
Hearing Melon talk about Born to Die you would get an impression that the album was such a hype killer for Lana's career and dissapointed just about everyone.... sure he is right about it being polarizing at the begining but considering it is decade old let's recap: ●This album is still charting today - it has 575+ weeks at BBD top 200 and is 2 longest charting album by a female and it is coming for the 1st place ● Pitchfork recentlyish basically apologised for their obvious hate campaign against this album and raised it's score ●Many today's top female artists cite this album as their inspiration and what got them into making music e.g. Billie Eilish ● This album has a range of 5-7 mil spotify streams daily - which is insane for a decade old album, mainly because TikTok has introduced this album to younger gen ● Also songs from BTD get viral all the time: SS, Radio, Diet Mountain Dew... Not bad from one of the most disapointing albums of 2010s...
I don't think he's denying it's influence or popularity. I think it's more context for how there was a definite age gap in fans of Lana that was kinda weird considering people her age generally fucking hated her music when she came onto the scene but younger people gravitated to it immediately. It's sorta rare for an artist to skew younger right out of the box the way she did and then eventually become universally accepted as great. And I relate because I too thought the album was pretentious bullshit when it came out and eventually came around on Lana as she kept building on her sound. The only way I can put the skepticism around LDR among her peers is akin to how people might view a freshman dating a senior. From the freshmen peers perspective nothing is cooler. From the senior peers perspective, the only reason that freshman is dating that senior is because nobody gets how fucking lame the senior is. A person Lana's age when she released that album putting that particular music out was and remains extremely fucking lame. But I also get why people who were in their teens or early 20s wouldn't get that perspective.
@@joaquin5929 I fail to see how such a influential and beloved album can be considered a 'dissappointment' in any way, let alone one of the biggest dissappointments of the 2010s. Not even for Anthony's standards since he didn't fuck with Lana's music either way.
I feel like the lone defender of The King of Limbs sometimes. I love the sound palette they were messing with. Solid 8/10. And there were some great remixes too
TKOL is like Remain In Light (chaotic, glitchy, loop-based, and intricate, eventually separating out into a clearer but equally existential second half), but in a forest instead of an urban space, and with a happier ending. Easily a fav in the RH discography, still crazy to me that Fantano hasn't come to appreciate it yet In other words, if it was called To King A Limberfly, you would have given it a 10. Give me likes
I've thought the same thing about TKOL and its parallels to Remain in Light for years. They even mirror each other in the way their big singles (Lotus Flower and Once in a Lifetime) work as a lynchpin track, sequenced right in the middle of the tracklist and bridging the two sides of the record
Agree about Testing. I think it was alright but Idk how you could have A.L.L.A on the list like Fantano instead of Testing. A.L.L.A. Is one of his best projects, probably my favorite.
@ I haven’t really spent time on that project. Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2 and LSD were the ones I only heard. Can’t really say ALLA is disappointing or not. Live love ASAP is my favorite album from him.
fear inoculum isn't jammy at all though, they're long songs that all have great calculated payoffs. seeing the album live also helps for sure. I think it's better than 10,000 days at least edit : I'm surprised there's no mention of The Golden Casket. It basically cemented Modest Mouse as washed
What payoffs? Most of the songs just become very repetitive in an uninteresting way and it's easy to mentally check out. As for The Golden Casket, that didn't come out in the 2010s.
@___Nightbreeze i personally think the tool album is not more repetitive than any of their other albums. the only one im not big on is the title track. Invincible, Descending, and Culling Voices are some of my favorite tool songs and yeah whoops i thought that album was 2019, makes sense why it wasn't here
Born to Die??! the album that charted on the Billboard 200 for years??! I get the stance but there’s multiple tracks on there that have stood the test of time cmonnn
LCD’s American Dream is a good album that simply came out at the wrong time and has the expectation of being the grand comeback of a legendary rock band. It’s not much worse than the debut and that album is fantastic. I see how he could call it disappointing though considering the high expectations.
I’m so glad that Vampire Weekend is back. Father of the Bride isn’t awful, but there are like 6 songs that genuinely make it worse. I feel like the album would be significantly better if it was only 13 or 14 songs. But honestly if Fotb is by far their worst, it just goes to show how good Vampire Weekend is
Cherry Bomb is the opposite of disappointing for me, the first time I listened to it I thought it was completely irredeemable whatsoever, but with a couple relistens and dedicating some more time to the album, the sheer love for creating music present throughout all of the different styles of production has lifted it to one of if not my favorite albums ever. Aside from KEEP DA OS I love all of the songs on that record
did the halsey fans forget there’s an entire video with a comment section instead of malfunctioning all over everything because some guy didn’t like a record
I just had a feeling her fans are annoying and proven right lol. Her music is just bad, point blank period. Sorry. Those people give very much "bad white blue hair liberal arts college ally who speaks over marginalized voices" lol.
this is quite literally how this channels fan base has ALWAYS been. controversial review gets put out, comments on that video are upset, commenters go to other video recently posted by same author and are still upset. did you forget how any of this works??? also it's not about him disliking a record, that review was more personal than what was necessary,
: Father of the Bride is inconsistent but there's so many INCREDIBLE moments I don't think VE would have the chance to come back with again (hello, Danielle Haim). Centipede Hz is difficult to listen to from front to back, sure, but are you telling me Painting With DIDN'T deserve to be on this list? American Dream has bangers, and plenty of them, but I think people have been disappointed by the fact it's a significantly more organic record than both Sound of Silver and This is Happening. The King of Limbs is a great record like Airbag/How Am I Driving? is a great record - it symbolizes a very important transition between one era of Radiohead to another, and I think it's important to keep that in mind while casting judgment on it. Other than that, no notes.
I had a friend that was a massive fan of chance the rapper before the big day and would talk about them a decent bit, never once heard him mention chance again after the big day. Truly a moving album
AIM by MIA is a really big disappointment for me personally, cause after the great albums she'd released up to that point, she dropped the ball with one of the most boring albums I've ever listened to
I will never stop defending that TOOL album. Its songwriting, both lyrically and structurally, is captivating, and the production makes me feel like I’ve been transported to a rainy cyberpunk city. I love the interludes too, which I know even fans don’t like to defend. It’s just a meditative, mellow album that doesn’t force itself on you, but gives you room to breathe and explore its intricacies. It’s definitely not on the same level as Ænema or Lateralus, but it still makes for an interesting and, in my opinion, pretty great listen.
i recently got into TOOL this year and stupidly didn’t listen to Fear Inoculum because of his review. I sometimes forget that it’s just his opinion but once i actually gave it a try, i was disappointed with his score
@@josuediaz8242 yeah I honestly agree with a lot of Fantano’s music takes and I’ve found some of my favorite albums through him, this is just an album where I think my taste and his differ significantly.
It does seem like he's basing his opinion of that album on its consistent mellow "vibe", as though Tool is not Tool without more punkish interjections ala Hooker With a Penis. I'm really not sure what he even liked so much about previous albums considering Fear Inoculum is clearly wrought from the same DNA as tracks like Right In Two and Third Eye and Reflection. He calls that era "progressive and meditative" but Fear Inoculum "doesn't go much of anywhere"? The only real difference is that the build is a bit slower and more careful, there is still very clearly Tool-brand progression occurring over a similar timescale, but to him a "payoff" is Maynard yelling a bunch maybe? Like Tool needs to make sure they're being "alt-metal" enough to keep Anthony awake, yet he'll listening to very droning repetitive stuff like Swans and appreciate the crescendo there. I think my biggest criticism is that some of it feels too familiar, that they're reusing some of their iconic riffs and production effects a little too liberally, but the songwriting itself is some of the most satisfying and consistent in their entire discography. I think his opinion is more undercooked than the album
Mania is by far my least favorite FOB record, a few songs I enjoy on it but "Young and Menace" takes the throne as the WORST song they've ever done and it is actually the only FoB song I refuse to listen to anymore.
It's me, I'm the diehard Fall Out Boy fan who loves MANIA and will defend it to the death. It's fun and interesting and catchy and different and has some of the best lyrics of their whole catalog.
I'm sad that Humanz is on the list since I like that Record, but I might just not be attached enough to Music as a whole to understand why people would be disappointed.
It's crazy to see AT LONG LAST ASAP here, where, in fact, most hip-hop fans considered it as Rocky's best album to date. Born To Die as well, when in fact, it paved the way for new artists that are now big, such as Lorde and Billie Eilish, just to name a few. It was also released when Electro Stupid Lyrics Pop Club songs are at their peak, so you can say it's like Kanye ending the gangsta era of hip-hop.
@joaquin5929 It's their third best album, behind Room On Fire and This Is It. I like the low key production and the experimentation, a lot of what Fantano praised on the New Abnormal already existed on Comedown Machine but was executed better. Tap Out, Happy Ending, All The Time, all bangers. Like its no masterpiece but Comedown Machine is a solid Strokes record, I really don't understand why some people hate it so much.
Nah calling at long last asap disappointing is crazy, it has so many bangers like Canal St., Fine Whine, LSD, Excuse Me, Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2, Everyday, and more. The album is straight 🔥
Humanz ? It was an album about features and there musically touch . I know people didn’t understand it at first but it has amazing songs and songs that are truly gorillaz . Idk fantano I think you listened to fans to much and idk if you really enjoyed the album.
What made the Tool album so disappointing was the fact that it took so long to make. All the fans (myself included) were thinking 'if it's taking this long to make then there must be something really special in the works!' But it ended up being the prog metal equivalent of Chinese Democracy.
@@alphalax7747 I can’t tell if you are being ironic or what, I thought that in 2024 we collectively moved past the whole acting like a though guy on the internet thing.
6:00 For the Logic pick, you could have also Picked Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, considering that is Logic's worst commercial album up until that point and was anticipated to be Logic's Darkest album when in fact it was super Dis-jointed. The only 2 songs that are still fine to this day is the Title track and Homicide however
Honestly literally everything having to do with Kanye post Donda is WAY more disappointing than Jesus is king. I long for the days of Jesus is King in retrospect.

Really surprised you went with Iridescence for BH instead of one of the last two albums. I relistened to it not that long ago and I feel like it hold up even better now that there’s been some time
Edit: Lol oh yeah, 2010s. Duh. Still I do stand by that Iridescence holds up and I don’t think it was a disappointing album, even at the time. It was just a little different
Those came out in the 2020s right? Maybe they'll get name dropped in 2034.
@@Piiavc oh shit you’re right, I’m a dumbass lol
Lana Del Rey's "Born to Die" is one of the MOST disappointing albums? I agree it was maligned at the time and took awhile to find its audience, but didn't it influence the next generation of pop divas as well as maintain a place on the record charts for over a decade? She's done better albums, yes, but I think this one has stood the test of time in different ways.
For sure, had its shortcomings but pretty much marked a change in the canon of pop and has withstood the test of time, remaining in the billboard hot 100 since its debut… melon is just not a Lana girlie lest we forget he gave UV a 2 😮💨
birds in the trap sharing a thumbnail with the big day????
That made me click so fast cause huh??😂
"Born to Die" on here is wild considering it has so many known tracks: The Title Track, Summertime Sadness, Blue Jeans, Dark Paradise, Video Games, Carmen, Diet Mountain Dew. I do not know what some critics said at the time, but as a teenager during that era it was very much loved and had a cultish following in the Tumblr Grunge Scene...to this day honestly.
so just cause a album has many known tracks means its good? So Astronaut in the ocean is amazing cause its so known? An album doesn't become "good" just because some songs are more famous than others.
Born to die was completely bashed by critics at the time. They had a personal vendetta against her for some reason, and it stayed this way for years
@@m00nrac00n fck tumblr. I like Lana but I'm tired of every Lana fan talking about tumblr there is a world outside of that site.
@rREC ok but born to die is full of amazing songs
Anthony you have to rate chromokopia so all these white boys can know whether they can like it or not 🥺
why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?
Speaking of disappoinment, I always thought you could never top your horrible review of swimming, but I have to admit, you really outdid yourself this time
Welp thankfully he never top his "horrible review of swimming"
Naaah the swimming one is worse because Mac was actually a talented writer and didn’t rely on his “pain and suffering” to make his records appealing
@@joaquin5929 I agree that swimming is a lot better, however I'm talking about how clueless and disrespectful Anthony was to the artist as a person and their struggles
@@joaquin5929 And you put pain and suffering in quotes because what? You don't believe there was pain and suffering. Melon fans trying to out-vile Melon in his defense are reading themselves for filth.
Hearing Melon talk about Born to Die you would get an impression that the album was such a hype killer for Lana's career and dissapointed just about everyone.... sure he is right about it being polarizing at the begining but considering it is decade old let's recap:
●This album is still charting today - it has 575+ weeks at BBD top 200 and is 2 longest charting album by a female and it is coming for the 1st place
● Pitchfork recentlyish basically apologised for their obvious hate campaign against this album and raised it's score
●Many today's top female artists cite this album as their inspiration and what got them into making music e.g. Billie Eilish
● This album has a range of 5-7 mil spotify streams daily - which is insane for a decade old album, mainly because TikTok has introduced this album to younger gen
● Also songs from BTD get viral all the time: SS, Radio, Diet Mountain Dew...
Not bad from one of the most disapointing albums of 2010s...
The hatred Anthony has for old Lana is wild lmao. He just diminishes those early album's influences ALL the time.
I don't think he's denying it's influence or popularity. I think it's more context for how there was a definite age gap in fans of Lana that was kinda weird considering people her age generally fucking hated her music when she came onto the scene but younger people gravitated to it immediately. It's sorta rare for an artist to skew younger right out of the box the way she did and then eventually become universally accepted as great.
And I relate because I too thought the album was pretentious bullshit when it came out and eventually came around on Lana as she kept building on her sound.
The only way I can put the skepticism around LDR among her peers is akin to how people might view a freshman dating a senior. From the freshmen peers perspective nothing is cooler. From the senior peers perspective, the only reason that freshman is dating that senior is because nobody gets how fucking lame the senior is. A person Lana's age when she released that album putting that particular music out was and remains extremely fucking lame. But I also get why people who were in their teens or early 20s wouldn't get that perspective.
@@8nicopink868literally watch the video. He said that it was a necessary album and doesn’t hate its existence 🤷🏻♂️ yall glazers who don’t listen
@@tacosavings9751lol, loved the freshman dating senior comparison.
@@joaquin5929 I fail to see how such a influential and beloved album can be considered a 'dissappointment' in any way, let alone one of the biggest dissappointments of the 2010s. Not even for Anthony's standards since he didn't fuck with Lana's music either way.
Remembrar last year in Anthony’s wrapped video where he said he was working on a Pink Floyd worst to best? Yeah…
👹👹👹👹
Hoping for it too. Pink Floyd’s in the conversation for greatest of all time. I’d love to hear melons thoughts on the ranking
I feel like the lone defender of The King of Limbs sometimes. I love the sound palette they were messing with. Solid 8/10. And there were some great remixes too
I genuinely love KoL
The basement version sounds so much better and lively
I really like the album too
@@satellitesahara6248 and you're not alone! i love this album and i will die on this hill
Even if I agreed with you, a solid 8/10 is a disappointing follow-up to In Rainbows
Please address your Halsey review, thanks
This isn’t the Halsey review

I hope he does because I live for the drama, but at this point he's best just moving on, ain't no justifying that review
it's correct. it's a decent 1
please address the halsey criticism. you said something cruel, it'd be very disappointing if you don't comment on it
If you think THAT is cruel, you haven’t watched him at all 😂
@@joaquin5929 can you genuinely find something that he has said that is more cruel than that?
@@joaquin5929 being harsh about music is different from dismissing a cancer survivor, hope that helps
TKOL is like Remain In Light (chaotic, glitchy, loop-based, and intricate, eventually separating out into a clearer but equally existential second half), but in a forest instead of an urban space, and with a happier ending. Easily a fav in the RH discography, still crazy to me that Fantano hasn't come to appreciate it yet
In other words, if it was called To King A Limberfly, you would have given it a 10. Give me likes
I've thought the same thing about TKOL and its parallels to Remain in Light for years. They even mirror each other in the way their big singles (Lotus Flower and Once in a Lifetime) work as a lynchpin track, sequenced right in the middle of the tracklist and bridging the two sides of the record
@Lateralus347 🙏 found a friend
in three days you will begin to cough
Cherry bomb hate in 2024 is crazy bruh
Maybe I'm alone in this, but King of Limbs grew on me quite a bit, despite the fact I didn't care for it initially
Basement version is far superior
Not even a rocky fan but that album was good
can’t wait to block yo ass when you give Chromakopia a solid 6
Lmao he’s gonna give it the yellow flannel 😼 trust me bro
it’s sorta like Tyler’s version of MM&TBS so he’ll give it a 7/8 I reckon
If this happens I think I’ll finally detach from fantanos opinions and miraculously think for myself again
I KNOW. its literally so ass id be mad if it got a solid 6 too brother
@@noahmclaughlin2251*Everybody disliked that
just rate the new tyler album already
Real
"Hey youtuber can you just do what I want. Fuck what you want to do"
real shit
6 or 7/10
It came out two days ago retard
A$AP Rocky’s Testing, Grimes’ Miss Anthropocene, and Flying Lotus’ Flamagra were major disappointments for me.
Agree about Testing. I think it was alright but Idk how you could have A.L.L.A on the list like Fantano instead of Testing. A.L.L.A. Is one of his best projects, probably my favorite.
@ I haven’t really spent time on that project. Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2 and LSD were the ones I only heard. Can’t really say ALLA is disappointing or not. Live love ASAP is my favorite album from him.
still waiting on that halsey followup
What a pathetic existence you have then
TS's Reputation is not on the list and I'm shocked
Flamagra is so sick.
At Long Last Asap???? Bouiiiii did we listen to the same album?? That was like my summer 2015 jam, I had it on repeat non stop
I have no idea how he listened to Holy Ghost, Jukebox Joints, Wavybone, Back Home and Pharsyde and said yeah I'm disappointed
No one can ever make me hate cherry bomb, few skips yeah but it bumps
fear inoculum isn't jammy at all though, they're long songs that all have great calculated payoffs. seeing the album live also helps for sure. I think it's better than 10,000 days at least
edit : I'm surprised there's no mention of The Golden Casket. It basically cemented Modest Mouse as washed
What payoffs? Most of the songs just become very repetitive in an uninteresting way and it's easy to mentally check out.
As for The Golden Casket, that didn't come out in the 2010s.
@___Nightbreeze i personally think the tool album is not more repetitive than any of their other albums. the only one im not big on is the title track. Invincible, Descending, and Culling Voices are some of my favorite tool songs
and yeah whoops i thought that album was 2019, makes sense why it wasn't here
Born to Die??! the album that charted on the Billboard 200 for years??! I get the stance but there’s multiple tracks on there that have stood the test of time cmonnn
That A$AP Rocky take might be one of your worst takes of all time
LCD’s American Dream is a good album that simply came out at the wrong time and has the expectation of being the grand comeback of a legendary rock band. It’s not much worse than the debut and that album is fantastic. I see how he could call it disappointing though considering the high expectations.
It’s a good album. Anthony is just pissed because he spent over $100 on their final live album from 2011
The debut is excellent bro 😭
M83 Junk has aged nicely
I’m so glad that Vampire Weekend is back. Father of the Bride isn’t awful, but there are like 6 songs that genuinely make it worse. I feel like the album would be significantly better if it was only 13 or 14 songs. But honestly if Fotb is by far their worst, it just goes to show how good Vampire Weekend is
Gigantic cap FOTB is so refreshing and the jam band direction is such a no brainer for VW
@@LinusGraugaardDøssingsame I love it more than modern vampires
Cherry Bomb is the opposite of disappointing for me, the first time I listened to it I thought it was completely irredeemable whatsoever, but with a couple relistens and dedicating some more time to the album, the sheer love for creating music present throughout all of the different styles of production has lifted it to one of if not my favorite albums ever. Aside from KEEP DA OS I love all of the songs on that record
MIA's AIM album in 2016 was a step down from her amazing work earlier on in the decade with Kala and MAYA.
did the halsey fans forget there’s an entire video with a comment section instead of malfunctioning all over everything because some guy didn’t like a record
I don't know getting a lot of main character syndrome out of this vid
I just had a feeling her fans are annoying and proven right lol. Her music is just bad, point blank period. Sorry. Those people give very much "bad white blue hair liberal arts college ally who speaks over marginalized voices" lol.
this is quite literally how this channels fan base has ALWAYS been. controversial review gets put out, comments on that video are upset, commenters go to other video recently posted by same author and are still upset. did you forget how any of this works??? also it's not about him disliking a record, that review was more personal than what was necessary,
It's not about the score, it's the fact that the review was incredibly disrespectful and nasty to her as a person
I cannot take the Centipede Hz slander that album has aged so well for me.
Yeah nah fam, I'll die on the hill of ALLA being a classic.
Flamagra and ALLA as disappointing is fucking crazy 😭
: Father of the Bride is inconsistent but there's so many INCREDIBLE moments I don't think VE would have the chance to come back with again (hello, Danielle Haim). Centipede Hz is difficult to listen to from front to back, sure, but are you telling me Painting With DIDN'T deserve to be on this list? American Dream has bangers, and plenty of them, but I think people have been disappointed by the fact it's a significantly more organic record than both Sound of Silver and This is Happening. The King of Limbs is a great record like Airbag/How Am I Driving? is a great record - it symbolizes a very important transition between one era of Radiohead to another, and I think it's important to keep that in mind while casting judgment on it.
Other than that, no notes.
Birds was disappointing and definitely his worst, but it’s not a 3. A “mid” is a 5-6, no?
AT.LONG.LAST.ASAP is crazy WTF???? Most of the fans admit that it is his best work.
I had a friend that was a massive fan of chance the rapper before the big day and would talk about them a decent bit, never once heard him mention chance again after the big day. Truly a moving album
I think Roddy Rich’s follow up to that anti social record could be here. That record was huge and the follow up was diabolically mid
AIM by MIA is a really big disappointment for me personally, cause after the great albums she'd released up to that point, she dropped the ball with one of the most boring albums I've ever listened to
I will never stop defending that TOOL album. Its songwriting, both lyrically and structurally, is captivating, and the production makes me feel like I’ve been transported to a rainy cyberpunk city. I love the interludes too, which I know even fans don’t like to defend. It’s just a meditative, mellow album that doesn’t force itself on you, but gives you room to breathe and explore its intricacies. It’s definitely not on the same level as Ænema or Lateralus, but it still makes for an interesting and, in my opinion, pretty great listen.
I agree completely. Not my favorite album by them, but still an excellent album overrall
i recently got into TOOL this year and stupidly didn’t listen to Fear Inoculum because of his review. I sometimes forget that it’s just his opinion but once i actually gave it a try, i was disappointed with his score
@@josuediaz8242 yeah I honestly agree with a lot of Fantano’s music takes and I’ve found some of my favorite albums through him, this is just an album where I think my taste and his differ significantly.
It does seem like he's basing his opinion of that album on its consistent mellow "vibe", as though Tool is not Tool without more punkish interjections ala Hooker With a Penis. I'm really not sure what he even liked so much about previous albums considering Fear Inoculum is clearly wrought from the same DNA as tracks like Right In Two and Third Eye and Reflection. He calls that era "progressive and meditative" but Fear Inoculum "doesn't go much of anywhere"? The only real difference is that the build is a bit slower and more careful, there is still very clearly Tool-brand progression occurring over a similar timescale, but to him a "payoff" is Maynard yelling a bunch maybe? Like Tool needs to make sure they're being "alt-metal" enough to keep Anthony awake, yet he'll listening to very droning repetitive stuff like Swans and appreciate the crescendo there.
I think my biggest criticism is that some of it feels too familiar, that they're reusing some of their iconic riffs and production effects a little too liberally, but the songwriting itself is some of the most satisfying and consistent in their entire discography. I think his opinion is more undercooked than the album
@@biliousvicarduds9089 nothing but facts spoken here
Mania is by far my least favorite FOB record, a few songs I enjoy on it but "Young and Menace" takes the throne as the WORST song they've ever done and it is actually the only FoB song I refuse to listen to anymore.

@@cinemachronic He was wrong but these comments add nothing except to be annoying, at least make it a discussion.
It's crazy to see AT LONG LAST ASAP here, where, in fact, most hip-hop fans considered it as Rocky's best album to date. Born To Die as well, when in fact, it paved the way for new artists that are now big, such as Lorde and Billie Eilish, just to name a few. It was also released when Electro Stupid Lyrics Pop Club songs are at their peak, so you can say it's like Kanye ending the gangsta era of hip-hop.
Will the undeserved disrespect of Comedown Machine never stop?
You can’t tell me it’s as good as anything they did before 😂
@joaquin5929 It's their third best album, behind Room On Fire and This Is It. I like the low key production and the experimentation, a lot of what Fantano praised on the New Abnormal already existed on Comedown Machine but was executed better. Tap Out, Happy Ending, All The Time, all bangers. Like its no masterpiece but Comedown Machine is a solid Strokes record, I really don't understand why some people hate it so much.
Fantano can’t talk about cherry bomb for more than 10 seconds without glazing flower boy
Bird in the trap ??
Nah calling at long last asap disappointing is crazy, it has so many bangers like Canal St., Fine Whine, LSD, Excuse Me, Lord Pretty Flacko Jodye 2, Everyday, and more. The album is straight 🔥
LSD is a good song but not a banger
Wtf Cherry Bomb has a lot of great songs it’s definitely not perfect but still
Humanz ? It was an album about features and there musically touch . I know people didn’t understand it at first but it has amazing songs and songs that are truly gorillaz . Idk fantano I think you listened to fans to much and idk if you really enjoyed the album.
24:24 "terrible production" you sure about that
Bass sounds like farts
I feel like this list had too many albums we knew would be disappointing before release
how are Live Long Asap and at Long Last Asap a disappointing albums? That better be a bait
What made the Tool album so disappointing was the fact that it took so long to make. All the fans (myself included) were thinking 'if it's taking this long to make then there must be something really special in the works!' But it ended up being the prog metal equivalent of Chinese Democracy.
Born to die and disappointment dont really fit into one sentence

6:00 For the Logic pick, you could have also Picked Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, considering that is Logic's worst commercial album up until that point and was anticipated to be Logic's Darkest album when in fact it was super Dis-jointed. The only 2 songs that are still fine to this day is the Title track and Homicide however
Todd in the Shadows watching for ideas for future Trainwreckords videos
Iridescence next to everything else here… good lord
At Long Last A$AP might just be the best album in a stacked catalog. These are the horrible takes I'm here for
The only thing more disappointing than these albums is Fantano's main character syndrome
Honestly literally everything having to do with Kanye post Donda is WAY more disappointing than Jesus is king. I long for the days of Jesus is King in retrospect.
