Oh well... |
TBH you'd have a bigger chance with only one release. You got some votes, but split between different releases.
My thoughts on the nominees:
No major surprises, maybe just a few albums doing unexpectedly well (e.g. Perils + a few others that I don't want to spoil) or unexpectedly poor (Yeezus).
Happy with: Paramore and Superlove in best pop, Holter doing well, Acid Rap doing well, Mephisto in the Water getting nominated in best solo female songs. I'm totally happy with worst song nominees too, I fucking hate Wrecking Ball.
Disappointed with: Immunity not making it into best albums category, seeing how well it did in most other categories. Also Bound 2 making it into best video, but like with many other (song) categories, it didn't take many votes for a video to be nominated. At least the other nominees are all pretty damn great.
Overall happy that we included folk/country and RnB categories, I think those were a big success. Not so much the jazz/blues category (at least songs), and, well.. You can see the avant-garde nominees and judge for yourself.

On the one hand I'm happy because it's the one place where my favorite album of the year got mentioned at all, but on the other hand people fucked with it and made it more of a joke, which is really disappointing. The nefarious skype group strikes again.

Hip Hop nominations are pretty good, no bad albums there. R&B nominations are extremely beige. Female solo nominations are very good, take Marling out for Beyonce and it would be better though. Solo male is decent. I consider Dagger paths an album, fuck y'all who say otherwise. Blue Hawaii for most underrated album. Anything but Kanye for most overrated. Sky for album cover. Foxygen for worst album. Julia or Jimmy for best album. Drizzy for best song.
Two things I'm disappointed with, the electronic nominations, all of it, just horrible. The second is Bangerz being nominated for worst album, you'll didn't listen to it you fucking rats, did it make you feel good, yeah? I hope you all die.

Dude, it's not like Pitchfork is all that different than 99% of all other music outlets out there. Unfortunately, most of the music writers out there are writing about the same stuff.
I voted in Village Voice's Pazz N Jop poll once again, and out of 457 ballots, Kanye, Vampire Weekend and Daft Punk ranked 1,2,3 in the album voting. it's impossible to fight it.

I don't disagree with this at all.
