What made you realize he was right all along?
Scruffy’s Springsteen worship is what prevents me from taking him seriously.
>>121571314Nothing, false premise (he's wrong about everything and irrelevant)
Nothing because, unlike him, I grew out of my contrarian phase.
>>121571346no rock musician has ever had a better 15-year streak than he did from Greetings through Tunnel of Lovecope
>>121571346>Scaruffi happens to like an actually listenable artist? Well, that's just a bridge too far for me!
>>121571389>can’t sing>can’t playHow is Springsteen listenable?
as music sources: john peel>piero scaruffi
>>121571314This convinced me, it just about hit the nail on the head in every conceivable aspecthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bM0Nu_WkfRQ
>>121571314going through his 8.5s and 8s and just finding an insane variety of albums that i had never heard of and were consistently GOOD. the guy is a retard but he's done the work of digging and he clearly has an ear for something. that a 70 year old italian can listen to salem's king night and correctly identify that it's an inventive and important album speaks to something
>>121571346The zoomer hate over Springsteen has always been baffling to me. He's one of the GOAT, competently blows away any other working mans rocker.
>>121572911Any singer-songwriter that is worshipped by Rolling Stone is usually garbage.
>>121572950/mu/ and hipster zoomies always bring up that he was super-wanked by boomer critics and publications as a negative and i guess want to distance themselves from that canon. Completely gay reason. The praise was all deserved.
>>121573028>le hipsterNothing is more hipster than simping for this hack blogger
>>121573056>liking Springsteen is simping for Scaruffigiga retarded. Do you think VU is famous because of him too?
>>121573080Springsteen is fine, Scaruffi sucks
>>121573028Springsteen IS a hipster artist. Nobody was listening to him aside from critics.
>>121573170He's literally one of the highest selling artists ever. Almost every American boomer I've known listened to him lol.
>>121573224I don’t care how many records he sells, he can’t sing and can’t play.
>>121571314
>>121576819based
he overrates shostakovich so he probably isnt
>>121576819he's Italian, so he is critiquing music from that lens. Kind of unique I guess, at least he's got better taste than that one fag from New York
>>121571314This
>>121576819totally justifiedone gave us baby zoomer torture and>CONSEQUENCES WILL NEVER BE THE SAMEwhereas blah and gorillaz gave us>YOU COACHELLA LOT DON'T LIKE OUR BLOODY MUSIC? FIDDLESTICKS
>>121571314another anon said it was the 8.5s and 8sbut for me it was the 7.5s and 7s they were absolute kino and more recent since i got done with a lot of 8s around 2020. i dont care if the score is slightly lower than what i'd give it it's the best resource for authentic weird shit that isn't being paid to advertise like p4k or even here
>>121571314The only people who worship him are midwits who think they are too smart for Pitchfork and RYM
