I like going to their website and seeing what they say about a band or cd, but sometimes I like something even if they don't. They do give some good insights in their reviews. They favor certain bands more than others. I think it's good to look at them along with other sites such as allmusic.com.

I read the whole review, and the guy seemed to know his sh!t. I just don't get the rating. You're giving it a 3.8/10 because Breathe, Makes the World Go Round, and Hero were out of place (which I agree), and Sly Fox wasn't as potent as "She Watch Channel Zero". Okay, those may be flaws, but a 3.8 means an album isn't even worth listening. This reviewer obviously has some sort of bias against Nas. It's like giving Illmatic a 6/10 cause he didn't like "One Time 4 Your Mind".

I rarely trust Pitchfork. They tend to focus mainly on obscure indie bands whilst giving cursory treatment to other genres and artists. The style of reviewing is pseudo-intellectual, pretentious and verbose as well, and the scores the award are often contrasting to those of many other renowned music publications and sites. Be wary when you're reading a Pitchfork review. If you want a critical opinion use www.metacritic.com or just make your own judgement.

You shouldn't trust anyone's opinions but your own.

Never heard of them, so I guess not!
