Let's agree: everyone needs to stop acting like a 7 is a bad review
A 7 means it’s a great album. 8,9, and 10s are preserved for albums he loves
It's from gaming reviews where 7 is a death sentence
@@twxvybeatz5796 IDK how you get 7 is a "great" album considering 5 is total indifference. 7 is really good, 8-9 are great, 10 is a masterpiece
Nose God 5 is average, 6 is good, 7 is great, 8 is he loved it, 9 is amazing, 10 is perfection
I... agree!
Let’s argue: Melon is actually deaf and is just lying about every song
this movie writes itself
I was gonna like this but it’s on 420 likes so yah
@@devsheth5677 I appreciate the effort
He’s guessing
Just reads the subtitles
Melon, you saying “hoes mad” in response to every comment is not a legitimate argument in court
Haha..............................good one...yes a good one
Hoesthony Madtano
But your honor, he said, "hoes mad". How could I possibly ever refute that argument?
P I K A technica ok humor cop
This is basically the video honestly
I love how he probably ignored like a whole ocean of mbdtf review bad responses
The redux of that review is so articulate and reasonable that I feel like we don't even really need to talk about the mbdtf slander anymore. This is coming from somebody who likes the album
Everyone still thinks he’s wrong but it’s clear he won’t change his mind
@@kip741 "everyone" lol
@@ziggle5000 majority disagree with him, that album is the goat for me
@@ziggle5000 idt theres anyone who has: 1. properly listened to mbdtf 2. doesn't hate mbdtf cuz they hate kanye, will agree with a 6/10 review for mbdtf
Lets argue: Melon has never heard music and is lying to us
Kinyamadege __ I mean he always listen to that dumb beat instead of the actual songs for his track reviews
@@mclennongeoringo8862 true
Ant actually looks like what a deaf person would look like. Just me? Okay.
Like Patrick Bateman?
*Let's Agree
Smuckers is the best Tyler the creator song. Yep that’s right melon. I formed my own opinion. What’re u gonna do now?
Underated comment
Dude fax
Melon will sneak into your house and beat up your opinion with Cal and a bass guitar
ok you can't have an opinion other than mine
2Seater, find your wings, okaga ca, deathchamp and buffalo are such a good songs too.
Let’s Argue: Anthony hires people to listen to music for him and they have 25 seconds to describe the album to him
and they all have to tell him at once
And then he return them back to his basement
i… agree
This was confirmed in the KG&LW - St. Brunswick East review. That's not even deep lore.
Anthony understands music 100x better than anyone in these comments lmao
Anthony: What are my worst reviews
Audience: “these are your worst reviews”
Anthony: “okay, this is why you’re all wrong!”
Kasi Kai let’s argue about the way this episode of let’s argue should have gone.
it’s argue not agree guy
The show is called "let's argue"! What did you expect, quiet agreement about his own failures?
DAISHORYUJIN 95 yeah.
@@daishoryujin95 I mean that'd be a funny video
Let’s Argue: this video is 14 minutes of Melon saying “Syke, no such thing as a bad review, you’re all wrong “
Well it's subjective opinions; you can't be subjectively wrong
Yunis Rajab but it’s my subjective opinion that you’re wrong... check mate
Yunis Rajab bruh why do both of you say “subjective opinion” isn’t that redundant lol
TheKeeperofChaos I mean... he argued, so I think that sums up what he was trying to do pretty well
@@YunisRajab depression told me that yeah you can be subjectively wrong
this is just anthony defending himself for like 14 minutes
TounVic it’s let’s argue he’s obviously going to argue for his point
He’s defending his ego
I mean it's let's argue
@brokenupbeat i wanted him to turn that 6 upside down >:(
It just seems like he can't take criticisms.
Man people acting like a 7 is a negative review that hurt them personally
Its not negative but it is wrong for an album like damn to get a 7
I believe that it deserves a lower score than Anthony gave it.
i felt attacked when he gave tetsuo and youth a 7
Matthew Wilcox are u talking about Carrie & Lowell? I personally feel that deserved an 8
VJETROSLAV KURČINIČ Damn is an 8 imo, so idk abt wrong, it’s his opinion. There are some of Kendricks weaker tracks on there.
Let’s argue: you shouldn’t let your taste be dictated by melon, if you like/hate an album, don’t let your opinions be swayed by someone else who sees the music in a different light to you, form an opinion on your own
Can I go further with this and say look at reviews as recommendations instead of being the end all be all?
@@Descro382 agreed
Oh shi-
Finally, someone with common sense in the comments to an Anthony Fantano video!
Sometimes it does open up a new perspective on aspects of music when you read or watch a review making you relisten and realise the flaws or the good aspects in that album I don't think that's necessarily bad.
I think it’s fine to have a review influence your opinion. After all, why listen to a review at all if you’re unwilling to have your opinion changed. But I do agree with you that you shouldn’t feel like someone’s review threatens your own opinions if you disagree with someone’s reasoning behind a review or opinion.
LET'S ARGUE: Your WORST bass intros
Alejandro Castillo Landero hahaha thats cruel but I’m in
Let's talk you better and better than your favorite TH-camr because I am your favorite TH-camr Gaga Gaga
Alejandro Castillo Landero
None of them.
all of them
None.
Let’s argue: This isn’t a let’s argue title, Melon has me trapped in his basement listening to TPAB someone please help
Sorry can't help your on your own fella
I.... agree
How can such an overused joke hold so much weight lol
That doesn't sound bad at all
Doggle Boggle it’s all good man, he’s actually being really nice about it
That new Glass Animals album may not be a masterpiece, but it did not deserve a NOT GOOD just because "Denzel Curry has never even been to Tokyo"
Agreed. I didn't love Dreamland but it deserves far better than a Not good
IMO that’s Melon’s worst review
I'd give it a 4/10
Glass Animals are lame indie bullshit, and I normally love lame indie bullshit
Glass animals fucking sucks
Let’s Argue: Saying “Your review is invalid because you don’t get what ‘X’ artist was going for” is a cheap way to try to take away the validity of someone’s opinion on a record. Most music fans have the basic rudimentary skills to deduce what they like, and don’t like, REGARDLESS of knowing what the artist was “going for”. Melon didn’t dislike Swimming because he’s out of touch, he just didn’t like the record that much, and that’s okay.
But he literally said it was "emotionally vacant" in his review. He literally had no clue what was going on within the record.
There's a huge difference between "I dislike this" and "this is bad." You don't need to know what an artist is trying to do to say you didn't enjoy it, but if you're saying something's bad, you're saying it failed on what it was trying to achieve or it just didn't work as a concept, and if so, you have to understand what said intention was.
Let's agree: This is just melon defending reviews people are angry about
Yeah hence the title, "let's argue"
@@djtheturtle1399 hence the joke you missed
@@djtheturtle1399 That's the whole point of a "Let's Agree" lmao. Something obvious, true, and easy to agree with.
so we just gonna act like he didn't give Mac miller's Swimming a 3..
It's a 2 he gave it a 3 because he's a shill
@Johnny Toast so edgy bro!!!
Johnny Toast Wow Johnny! Your music taste must be amazing
Johnny Toast I sincerely hope you find happiness
@Johnny Toast Did you even listen to the Faces mixtape? I personally love all his work but that one is also liked by people who would normally not like him
Magdalene is definitely your worst review
Yupppp
Sup tchalamet
That album is not even that good lmao
@@eaudbedroomdancing of course
Ultraviolence existing
Swimming by Mac Miller is your worst review hands down
Or maybe hand me downs?*?*? Oh boy
cherry bomb review was probably worse
Bath Salts cherry bomb was a terrible record
@Yer Nan Swimming deserves a high 6 at least
swimming is kinda bad but it's still one of my favourite albums of all time

Let’s agree! All of them!
How about we don’t and say we did.

@@billygarbage7431 That was gonna be my pick. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW, WOOOOOOOOOOW.
Lets agree: Anthony is still wrong about Care For Me
most definitely
yup
He did care for me dirty... that album helped me and a lot of others as well as being something different smh melon
He is definitely on crack when it comes to this album. It's GORGEOUS with its production and its mixed very well too. How the fuck it's a meh is way beyond me
@@farvezafridifaizurrahman6980 he said saba was drowning in influences, then proceeds to name the influences as people who grew in in his area, the whole album is literally about chicago and walter
Let's argue: as long as you liked it, it doesn't matter if an internet melon didn't.
Exactly people should just chill and understand other people have opinions
No, it's wrong to have your own opinion and everyone must bow down to the lord Melon.
Let’s agree: Melon doesn’t age at all, he looks just the same as 10 years ago.
Uranus He’s got vegan superpowers😂
HDM Reviews I respect the reference here
rj c Melons’ vegan, which basically means he’s better than everyone else!😂
Adulthood tends to do that
Uranus Leonardo DiCaprio doesn’t age at all and looks the same after double that amount of time
I swear the next time I hear someone call a 7/10 criminally too low for albums that aren't even the best by an artist, I'm gonna blow up an orphanage
Communism Works Because I Say It Does A Communist Deadhead, ain’t that something.
Derek Wadas okay wad ass
While I agree with your sentiment, that’s a pretty evil thing to do bud
Big mood.
Honestly I feel like blowing up an orphanage isn’t as bad cause they already have been more unlucky
Let’s Argue: Let’s Argue is a flawed series because the whole idea of his album reviews are based on his personal rating for music, which is all subjective to the listener. The idea of us telling Fantano that his personal rating is wrong is impossible because we are not Fantano.
Lets argue: this should be a top comment
except hes defending giving a 7 to an album that made it into his 200 best albums of the decade
@@subscribetopizzatheonlyrea7322 good point but... he doesn't care
@@pikatechnica5680 this is weak rationalization tbh. How can someone who's whole livelihood is based on scrutinizing other's work, expect to not have HIS scrutinized? I think y'all forget that some ppl might think a review is shit not because of the score, but because of the ACTUAL review. If they think his analysis of a project is underbaked or lacking insight, that's just as valid as his opinion, no?
After all, y'all know it's just their opinion, right?
@@subscribetopizzatheonlyrea7322 I’m also gonna have to disagree with my original comment cuz Care for Me is a damn masterpiece and he hated on it😂 in that case, his opinion sucks
i've gotta agree with the comments saying swimming was the worst review, but can we talk about how he gave AM a 3??? like it's definitely not arctic monkeys best work, but there's no way it was deserving of a score that low
I really loved that album. I really love all of Arctic Monkeys work. Favourite band of all time for me. Thought AM def deserved better.
AM was fucking dope. The only reason people don’t like it is bc it went a new direction and towards a direction of rock that hasn’t really been taken. Joshua Hommes production on it was amazing and was definitely a step back up after suck it and see.
This is what you come up with for his worst review, arctic monkeys AM
@@47fortyseven47 oh i don't think it's his worst i just the one i thought of that no one else was talking about, but that seemed unreasonably low

@@subscribetopizzatheonlyrea7322 that's a hot take
Johnny Jiggman I think it’s a good take. I think if you get even more expiremental than Death Grips, it is pretty much you TRYING to be different. 100 Gecs tries SUPER hard to be different, where as Death Grips gets EXTREMELY experimental, while also being able to actually like the music.
In college, I used to eat chicken fingers while watching the Needle Drop. Now whenever I see Melon, I think of chicken fingers.
Melonian conditioning
Melon being vegan: ironic.

I think his biggest mistake was hurry up were dreaming
House of balloons is dumb
Mac Miller- Swimming...enough said
Kev Pearson exactly
house of balloons and birds in the trap are a close second/third
what else would you add normally
Precisely why I dislike his Circles review, felt like he was only trying to honor Mac instead of review the music, Swimming > Circles but Melon-boy made me sad.
@@GamingOS while i would not say swimming is a masterpiece mac fans claim it to be.its a very VERY good album and in my opinion is a strong 7 to an 8.not a 3
he gave golden hour by kacey musgraves a 4...that one made me mad
Finally got around to listening to it. Very solid album. Definitely not GOAT tier. I like the direction she's heading though.
Gave Porter Robinson’s Worlds a 5, yet it reigns as one of the greatest electronic albums of the decade.
"one of the greatest"
according to who?
I think a 5 is a number or two too low but going back and listening to it after Virtual Self and Nurture it’s super clear that he has improved, and if I’m going to call those projects maybe an 8 or 9 I have to dock Worlds for being a little more amateur.
I also think it hasn’t aged particularly well, or at least as well as Nurture will. I can still get down do some of the tracks but they seem so “of their time” and feel dated already, where the new material from him sounds so much more conceptual and innovative. Also how I feel about Good Faith from Madeon vs his old music. I think it will be a much more important album for him.
i only watch these so i can hear melon’s “hhhha hA *HA HA* Ha” laugh
I can hear this comment
"Ha ha *HAH* "
those are the best
Anthony fantano: "I give this a strong three to a light four"
Also anthony fantano: "I gave that a three, not a four"
yea but in the description of the video, the official score is a 3/10
"I give this a [my actual score] to a [but you can call it this if it makes you feel better]"
@@DrPonk loool
STRONG 3 to a LIGHT 4 so less than 3.5 i.e. just a 3

great record, absolutely fantastic, but not QUITE a ten.
Wrong. This album is near perfection. I can't even pick an issue with the album. It isn't even too short considering it's clearly connected to Ye's album.
@@kiandocherty3589 kanye didnt make enough gun sounds
KSG is a 7 in my eyes. It’s good. Ye and Cudi compliment each other well and they hold their own. I have no idea why people think it’s a 10 but I guess I just don’t hear it the same way most people do
Edit: Holy shit this was only 4 months ago? I thought this was my opinion years ago. KSG is a decent to strong 9 for me
@@kiandocherty3589 if you mean "no misses" by perfection then its a wrog argument. A 7/10 can have no misses too
Because The Internet was kinda a terrible review. You just completely missed the point of the album
Agreed
Yessir yessir
100% my least favorite review of him, it's like he listened to the first couple seconds of each song and tried to form an opinion based on that.
Even after he got called out for just talking about the screenplay he’s just talking about the screenplay 😭
Care for Me was easily the worst review.
Hiatus kayote definitely takes the cake
Kaiyote**
Doesn't even get a real review because it's "poorly groomed and sequenced" tf man
The irony of it being the shortest counter-argument of the video. I need a proper explanation, the review is so damn vague.
Yeah, it’s honestly pathetic. It’s underrated enough as is, but for him to act like there’s nothing there that sticks out is just hilarious.
The Swimming review is absolutely your worst one
MAGDALENE review pretty bad too
thank youuuuu. someone I can agree with.
I came here to comment this / look for this comment.
Professional Soundcloud Rapper he put that album on the same level of willow smith. Melon at his lowest.
came here to say this.
Let's agree: Swimming was his worst and unfair album review.
Well he changed his opinion
i’m willing to take the heat for this one: bladee’s “red light”
Fr i dont get why fantano and so much of his audience are so opposed to sadboys/drain gang
@@capttoad8572 I’m late but yeah it makes no sense. At the same time he’ll have an orgasm over some hyper pop shit which is literally the same music but with more distortion
@@capttoad8572 He doesn't like it because it's literally the Gen Z version of things like Evanescense and Linkin Park. Angsty/Depressing music that would most likely only appeal to teenagers and people who think that depression is a personality trait. To my knowledge he's doesn't apply to those categories. In my opinion it's music that you hear on your teens and that's it. I don't understand how some people see them as like some sort holy colective when their music is mediocre to average. Imo of course.
@@marioi.carrillo6264its quite unfair to call them "music for teens who think depression is a personality trait" because whilst yes there are sbe/dg fans like that, it takes away from their artistic credibility because both of those groups are very creative and made unique cloud rap projects that all still sound like nothing else released since
I haven’t had a good nights sleep since April 13th, 2011 when you gave House of Balloons a 3/10.
Almost every album in the video:
Fantano: You see, I actually hated the album because of that exact reason you just complained about so, naturally my opinion is validated.
The Ooz:
Fantano: Yeah, you're right.
Even the care for me explaination was short and vague lol. I'm on board with most of Fantanos reviews and I'm not a guy who gets too butthurt about someone not liking something I liked, but that Saba review was straight lazy and disappointing. He's given way worse albums way longer breakdowns than that.
Lets Argue: Tyler’s best album is the Grinch soundtrack
Hiatus Kaiyote? Still don’t know how their most recent album is ‘not neo-soul’ or how the performances weren’t technically interesting or of a high standard, that’s my least favourite review
Neve Sellers 2ND
your brain is massive and you are a king or queen whichever title you prefer
So true!
I.....AGREE
Yes thank you. That and Saba are the worst ones for me.
Let’s Agree: Fantano purposefully left MBDTF responses out of this video
He is an eminem hater

Nothing will ever be worse than his Mac Miller Swimming review.
I'm just glad Carrie and Lowell made his decade end list.

Every Mac Miller album should make the list. They're all far too low, especially in comparison to Circles. Swimming so low imo is his worst and Faces was the lowest rated album on his decade list.

I'm surprised no one talked about the Ultraviolence review, that review seems completely biased and like he was avoiding to talk about the best songs, the theme and the instrumentals of the album and focusing too much on the image or "persona" of Lana
Completely agree
22, a million should definitely be on this list.
We should change the name of this video to "A Melon Defends His Bad Choices For 13 Minutes."
He's not defending choices, he's defending opinions- which are subjective...
Surprisingly, MBDTF didn't found it's way to get in this video.
As much of a meme that is, I for one agree with that review. I don't get all the hype about it, there are a few bangers like power that I can't deny, but other than that the compositions are pretty meh, and the mastering is horrible, I don't care what Kanye or Mike Dean say the digital artifacts on that album sound horrible, it being an artistic choice doesn't change that.
@@randomchannel-px6ho H A R D disagree
A FEW bangers??? Bruh like every song on that album is a banger
Breadstick Boss not as good as yeezus or graduation 😶
I think he's done acknowledging that review forever, good for him, everything that's needed to be said about it has been said. It's my favorite album but Anthony didn't love it, it's fine.
all of macs albumns were overlooked. underappreciated
Fantano really is a silver-tongued politician. You almost start to believe he means any of what he says.
His review of The Weeknd’s ”House of Balloons” is a f*king crime
Marlius Boe W
Its a fair review to a very mediocre album
@@ThyMushroomMaster edgy cringe lord.
It was one of the most powerful releases of the decade. He basically created a new subgenre himself and gave a crazy boost to the whole Canadian music scene.
This album made the dark sound mainstream and musicians from all over the world are still inspired by it to this day.
If this album hadn't come out, we'd be listening to a pathetic, cheesy, glittering rnb in the Chris Brown style right now.

LET"S AGREE: There is no defined measurement for what makes music "good" or "bad"; art is completely subjective and all we really have is our own perception of what is good and bad music.
...and then there's angelic 2 the core
Lets Argue: Choose Your Weapon by Hiatus Kaiyote is a great album and deserved better
I don’t know how House of Balloons wasn’t mentioned. I’d like to hear what he thinks about that now because I don’t know a lot of people who don’t agree it’s one of the most influential and greatest mixtapes of the 2000’s.
njhos99 2010’s?
Supreme Crowbar I was saying that it’s one of the best mixtapes since 2000. I could see how that could be confusing though after reading it again.
He put The Weeknd's Trilogy (all three mixtapes, of course) on his best of the decade list, so I suspect he might have warmed up to it.
THANK YOU FOR GOD SAKE
okay Doolittle it was illangelo and Abel
His house of balloons review was awful i'm surprised no one brought that one up
Yatin Uppal Easily his worst besides MBDTF
Yeah he didnt even really explain why he disliked it so much lmfao
ToO MUch AuTotUne
Perhaps it was brought up and Melon just decided not to address it?
Casey Douglas he redid the MBDTF, its way better but i thini a 6 it’s too high for such a shitty overrated album
Lets agree: Melon is THICC
Being a critic is an odd pursuit. I like Anthony’s personality, articulation and production which is, weirdly why I watch these videos but as far as music is concerned, it’s completely subjective and I can’t say I’ve bought or not bought an album, based on a review or critical analysis. To be fair, Anthony does caveat his videos with the fact that it’s his opinion!
It's weird how people project their own elitism and "my opinion is objective" takes onto him and then say he's either alternatively objectively wrong (the mental gymnastics at play being incredible) or again, an elitist
I like Anthony cause I just find him entertaining and he has introduced me to a lot of great music. But I think it’s really annoying when people take his ratings so seriously. There’s many albums I love that he hates and I don’t really care that much.

@@catika505 he's a very human artist and he's good to listen to when you're being so deeply, grossly human that nobody wants to be around you.
@@ErinWi sounds like my natural state
Melon is trolling if he seriously thinks Unknown Memory wasn’t an influential album. It’s not the most influential album in the world obviously but within the genres of cloud rap and subsequently emo rap Lean essentially moulded the sound into what it is. Do remember that many current popular rap acts have history with yl. You really think Travis Scott and Carti would sound the way they do today if Lean never existed? Again UM is not as influential as something like live love asap but you’re taking the piss if you can’t see the influence sbe has had.
even if you disregard influence, UM is fucking flames start to finish. production is top tier, lean switched up his style significantly from UD2002 and the whole record just emitts this addicting energy thats euphoric at times and melancholic at others
this isn't even what he said LMAO what the fuck?
He didn’t review it, but the way he dismissed Architects’ Holy Hell was as if he was describing a pierce the veil record. Holy Hell is not about fist pumping metal, it is about grief and acts as a sendoff to the bands previous lead guitarist, written by his brother. If Melon went in with a more open mind, he might have found a golden record which has become one of the most acclaimed and influential metal albums of the last decade.
I agree, Melon goes in with "it's shit mindset" for some reviews
Honestly he should just stop reviewing metal. He clearly is not into it and is not willing to actually engage with the genre. I feel like I actually lose knowledge when I listen to his takes on it.
Not giving Die Lit AT LEAST a 10 was an atrocity

It's one of the few albums I can listen to in it's entirety and enjoy. Although I'm not gonna lie I will skip that Chance song whenever I get the chance.
Really, The Worst Guys is pretty good imo
How many times did people reply with MBDTF?
Ya
Probably like 75% of the replies werr. He probably won't ever really talk about it again tho. His redux review was his final response
after roughly 10 minutes of reading comments, i saw 1 :/
I think people have generally and happily agreed to disagree with Anthony, the album is overwhelmingly incredible and yet we love Anthony regardless of his very unpopular opinion on it so might as well let it be
astrothunder we just need to wait another 5-10 years
I still think the Hozier self-titled review was a bit unfair; I definitely understood quite a few of the critiques, but "emotionless vocals" is where i was lost. obviously I personally disagree, but it also goes against the more common descriptions of his voice. vocals are my focus for most artists, and his are some of the few that can bring me to tears. keep doin what you do tho melon
Let's argue : this moment is underrated 4:48
The worst one, imo, will always be Swimming.
Mill this. Circles is so similar, and he loved it. I loved swimming from the start and didn’t know how he could shit on it so much. I fully believe if mac was still around he would have shit on Circles too
Asa Henry damn. Deep take
No, swimming was a fair review
Asa Henry yeah. Swimming is beautiful I’ve gotten so much enjoyment from I listen to it all the time. It’s beautiful. Don’t understand what’s remotely wrong with it.
Asa Henry maybe there were just a few elements of Circles that he preferred over Swimming. What score did he give swimming?
still angry you called Thundercats "Drunk" a bunch of cheesy and cliche sounds from the past. smdfh.
King Of The Ozone I didn’t see that one and I’m already mad. First time I heard Thundercat I was already hooked. Great musician and song writer.

A reason I appreciate his reviews is that, whenever I attempt into producing/recording music, I try to push myself to make something unique every time.
unknown memory is the most influential
Facts
Next: Albums that you Overrated???
kids see ghosts
That fucking hobo Johnson album holy shit my ears puked when I tried to listen to it
@Genesis Vira it's a 9 imo, still very good i own the record.
Every fucking death grips album
@@Dondraper87104 What about Goverment Plates he gave it a 6
Agree with the Carrie and Lowell gripe. That album is one of the most beautifully written collection of songs I've heard for as long as I can remember. Wven if you don't end up as emotionally attached to it as some other people, you should at least be able to appreciate the sheer level of songwriting and lyricism.
Why again? It pales so much in comparison to Seven Swans, or really any of his other work. Its beautiful, but that beautiful. Its leaning on the subject matter way too much.
@@TRENKROM Agree to disagree :) I love his other work, but for me Carrie and Lowell is a culmination of all I love about his former albums. The production is beautiful but reserved; the songs are perfectly paced and never too long; the ambient links between songs are gorgeous and (again) understated. I think it feels like a creatively more mature album than anything he's done in the past. It took him from a great artist, in my estimations, to my favourite living artist.
I love Seven Swans but I prefer the rich production of C & L. I engineer a lot and always find myself wondering how on earth they got such beautiful sounds. For me it's a perfect album, but I appreciate that you and I will have different tastes. I don't, however, agree in any way that it leans on the subject matter too much. For me that's like saying that Elliott Smith writes about depression too much, or that Feist writes about love too much.
@@amremorse What I mean is that its beautiful because the subject matter is beautiful, not because the lyricism or sound is particularly amazing.
People keep saying its too one dimensional but i think this is a somewhat surface level analysis of the music (not even getting into the subject matter right now). I personally think the song writing is just as varied and dynamic as other sufjan records, but in a more restrained and refined way. I love the album because it is intricate but understated, and not over done, preferring delicate and simple arrangements to unnecessary complexity. I truly find it to be sufjan's best work, taking all the power of his various previous works and distilling it. It's sufjan at his most intimate, both lyrically and musically speaking, and i think the criticism that it is one dimensional comes from comparing it with some of his more theatrical and over the top work.
Psychodrama should make it here! I felt you did not judge the album for its wordplay and his situation along with how UK was
Melon, that swimming review was a goddamn crime
I somehow thought he wouldnt be just justifying himself and show some reflection
He's giving reasons for his opinions. He's not gonna 180 bcs a dude on the internet got mad about a mediocre record.
@@aidandowdall1504 pretty sure he already gave his reasons in the review videos. This one doesnt really add anything
Exactly, if a review is being criticised as bad then it's because we found the reasons to be not satisfactory. Giving the same reasons again doesn't solve the issue
nicconator you must be new here. He’s been this way.
We need a part 2 with Mac Miller's - Swimming.
Still my hardest disagree with a review of his ive had

And then he review circles well because he died.
danielrc14 he reviewed circles positively because it was good
I’m still really happy that you agree with me on Cherry Bomb being completely under-par for Tyler. 🙏🏽
I don’t remember when you did a review on the Holocaust why’d you give it such a high score melonman
Anthony’s worst review is when he first reviewed Blonde and dismissed Endless as an artsy detour commissioned by Apple Music.
*relistens and gives it an 8*
I mean, the 3 hour livestream is *PRETTY* bad, The only real way to listen to the album is the re-release (Find it on youtube channel Marlow, he has the whole album released in CDQ) I thought Endless sucked until then. But I don't think that makes the Blonde review his worst one.
I agree with that but I overlooked endless too until the re-release
I feel like when you do a video like this, you should maybe pick some takes that make you admit some past mistakes or something. Maybe I'm wrong but I feel like, justifying your past reviews for the entirety of a video, really misses out on the opportunity of seperating you from some of your past work. Surely you can't agree with EVERYTHING you said in your 1000+ reviews. And yes, I know you have your "10 times I changed my mind" series.
@@Foulbrood yeah... OP already mentioned that.
im suprised that my beautiful dark twisted fantasy and 2014 forrest hills drive didnt get brought up
It definitely did he just ignored them lol
DEATHCAMP is an awesome song
Your worst review is easily The Weeknd's House of Balloons. Forgetting even your opinion's on it, it's how factually wrong you are on it, like calling him a 'band' and saying 'how much autotune there is over it.'
That fact checking is excusable cuz no one knew if it was a band or person. But review was trash.
When the lowest critic review was a 7 and most were 8 or 9 out of 10, I'm not saying he should comform to their reviews, but I wish he would've taken another look at this album from a different pint of view or something. I just don't get how the lyricism alone hurt the mixtape that bad. And even then there were some of the best lyrics of the Weeknd's discography on it
@@AshwinRaju I forgot there wasn't google in 2012
Christian Letellier it was 2011 first of all, and u can’t google something if literally no one knows the answer. Also how u gonna call someone out for fact checking and be wrong?
Y’all snubbed Saba again. At least you hit him with a compliment
He needs to make this a recurring series!
Spoiler: he kinda did
I know I’m really late, but Melon really misjudged Port of Marrow a while ago. I specifically remember him saying it didn’t have a lot of substance, but Port is their best album lyrics wise. James Mercer is a really solid lyricist.
