Did Scaruffi change the score of Through Silver In Blood? I swear it used to be an 8 before
>>130007449He's known to change scores all the time. Nevermind had an 8 at one point in time.
>>130007449People probably badgered him about the new Neurosis album so he went through the discog again. An 8.5 is a huge deal by his standards though.
>>130009093>An 8.5 is a huge deal by his standards though.It makes it one of the top 90~ Scaruffi albums of all time now. Also one of the last albums ever to get above a plain 8.
>>130007449Bumping this historic moment of music critical history.
Neurosis chads stay winning.
>>130009128that would be have one on me (2010)
>>130007449Imagine trusting Scaruffi on anything
>>130016205Is he supposed to be wrong here.
>>130007449through silver in blood sounds better with every passing year
>>130016024Is this dude ever gonna give an 8.5 or 9 to an album after the year 2000 (other than HOOM). He has the power to make any album avant teen legendary by doing that.
>>130007449if Slow Deep and Hard was moved down to an 8, does that mean that Through Silver and Blood is now his highest rated metal album?I'm okay with that
>>130021935This might be his way of further burying his wank for that album desu.
>>130018612It does. But Times of Grace is above a 6 imo. Also Scruffy doesn't understand death metal. He gave Morbid Angel--Covenant a 5 lol.
>>130020331He'll rate my album a 10
Waaaay better album to have as a top metal album of all time than Slow Deep and Hard at least.
>>130008806i dont believe it, he's never been a fan of nirvana, he always points out how they were the commercial side of grunge
>>130022555Grunge isn't even a real genreNirvana's a punk bandPearl Jam and Soundgarden are hard rockAlice in Chains is metal
>>130022569please don't, yr going to summon the grunge autist
>>130022569>>130022592Isnt a genre, but understands why those bands are grouped together... hmm there's hope for you mongs yet
>>130018612it's a bit too busy though, like a philarmonic orchestra, and industrial band and a sludge band playing together in unison
>>130020331no and they don't deserve them. Scaruffi is very consistent wit his 8.5+ ratings
>>130024899It's not like he's heard a legit ton from post-2000. He seems like he gave up or lost interest being as autistic about music past that yer.
>>130022555He seemed pretty critical of them but his actual ratings weren't that harsh.
>>130027167yeah but the difference between 7s and 8s is huge to him.even the bands he's harsh on can reach one or more 7s if he acknowledges those albums as masterpieces of their respective genre but only those with true artistic merit from groundbreaking/non-commercial genres can reach an 8
These changes of metal albums scores came after this interview: https://www.furious.com/perfect/pieroscaruffi2026.html
>>130022555You're a zoomer faggot who wasn't alive in 2002. Of course you won't believe it
>>130028603>Type O Negative rating was pretty much a troll this whole timeThat's kinda funny.
>>130028603I think this guy is more autistic about Scaruffi's exact ratings than Scaruffi himself.>Nobody. Times have changed. Nobody wants to make a masterpiece. They simply want to put out what they made. So they won't make a masterpiece because they don't care. There you have it, there will never be another 9/10.
>>130028603>Finally, rock music that could be compared with avant-garde music, but still very much rock music.I'm stealing this because it's more succinct than Peel's description of TMR
I think the most fascinating Scaruffi rating to me is that he thinks Charm of the Highway Strip by The Magnetic Fields is the greatest pop album of all time.
>>130028603This guy's autism rivals classic /mu/, I'm impressed
>>130028603It's funny that there are people who refer to themselves as "Scaruffists" and care that much that the wrong Smog album got an 8. It's really not that deep, bro.
>>130007449Yes, but while looking up this rating I found out his site is banned from the internet archive. Why the fuck did that happen?
