Re: Meh, let's do it again, this time for a year
Day 197: Untrue by Burial (Album Choice: Contrapasso)
As much hate as I give Christgau, lord knows he's a true lifer. Decades of music reviews, and he purportedly listens to every album he reviews 5 to 10 times.
5 to 10 times! I'd be damned to go past first impressions.
That doesn't excuse his thesaurus-happy shitpile writing but he's better than I in that aspect. One time listening is especially dubious when, like in the case of this album, the setting is questionable. Public transportation hurts my ears enough.
Also he has way more money than me. But whatever, good album.
Best Track: Shell of Light
Rating: 7/10
