Come Around Sundown – Kings of Leon – Metacrictic give it a 66, nyc a 40. But despite the big difference it isn’t as though the music establishment gave it an 85…
Speak Now – Taylor Swift – MC an 80, nyc is still evaluating but it will be around the 80 mark.
The new Ferry gets a 70, I’d go an 80, new Liz Phair a 53 and here I seriously disagree and would give it a 75, new Dylan and 86, I’d go an 80, Lil Wayne a 64 and that sounds about right for me, new old 97’s a 70 -I wonder if somebody fucked the curve there. Should be an 80.
but mostly? I kinda agree with the rock critic establishment though they are an awful tedious buncha scribes.
