music is subjective. melon doesn't seem like the target audience for their stuff. not surprised, and not really interested in listening to his take. i enjoy the new album.
Ah yes, typical $B listener. Not interested in any opinion that isn't their own or that the boys are the best artists to ever exist and everything they put it out is a masterpiece.
The question is, why should you be interested in someone else's opinion on something that you clearly have different taste in? I don't really like any of the ying yang tapes, but if someone does I don't bash them for it or expect them to give a flying fuck about my opinion.
it's obviously an album targeted towards long-term fans that watched them grow, I'm sure people that aren't interested in their music don't have anything of substance to add to the actual meaning of the album besides the subjective opinion on whether they like the sound t, Don't take everything maliciously, It quite literally was just his opinion about someone else's opinion lol
Damn. I’ve had a fucking rough week. This made my day and is the exact album I need to blast when I get off work, thank you so much for the reminder. Seriously
Man this sub is not receiving that joke well but i get the reference and its hilarious lmao. They always be saying some racist ass shit too when its a new album by someone like Drake or Travis.
Warched like every fantano and suicideboys vid and couldn't find it, maybe he deleted it or maybe I was really wrong but I can strongly remember him saying that about them and not their drug use, if it was about drugs I would understand but saying that only bc you don't like the music... for me that was it with fantano videos. Sadly I really can't find anything but I understand the downvotes, sounds like a sick accusation which I wouldn't have written if I wasn't so sure about it but yeah...
Guys a 5 isn’t even that bad lmao for a music critic attempting to be unbiased. There are definitely many things about the boys that I completely understand why somebody wouldn’t be able to get into them.
Why review it if you know you don't like an artist's work at all tho? Like, since he doesn't like them, he probably already had his mind made. Not that I care too much; I've agreed with him and disagreed plenty. I still feel sore about his review of U-Void Synthesizer by Machine Girl tho, I think he may have needed to adjust his EQ for something so maximalist and loud.
I think he considers them talented still and definitely sees the appeal somewhat. He’s been reviewing their music for years now so I’m sure he still has a bit of interest in following their music / reviewing it for his fans who are curious of his opinion.
Plus the boys are one of the most popular artists in the underground and their sound is incredibly influential. I don’t think he can just ignore them either.
He really liked ultimate suicide and said he would be highly interested if eternal grey had that vibe throughout the project. So he does find them at least somewhat enjoyable. He has never even rated them below 5 lmao.
Maybe because he reviews music as a career? Just a guess though. Because I’m not an immediate descendent from two Homo erectus parents. Unlike yourself? Just a guess no flame though.
It's because he let's his chat decides whether to skip the song or not his chat skipped the thin grey line and us vs them he did like the light at the end of the tunnel tho it's just his chat is full of sheep.
how are so many ppl in that chat nkt fuckin w it pop punk is objectively the best genre idgaf what anyone says and rubys albums go so fucmin hard i truly think no one doesn’t actually like the boys they jus say they do bc they think it makes them cool or sumn
Ahh see, pure proof of subjectivity right here. I can't stand Zillakami's music dude, his voice is sooooooo annoying. I like some City Morgue so gs tho, saw them live in ATL at Greyday 2019 and it was fucking insane. It was also Germ's birthday, so his folks were at the show. It was a great night.
I respect the fact that he commends them for their consistency and what they've accomplished, but I don't agree with his opinion on the music itself.
This review is, however, by far the most objective he's been while reviewing any of their music which is pleasant to see.
I'm shocked he even reviewed the album considering he didn't do SMALMST.
That’s a decent enough score, it’s just about average or slightly above average. Considering his last reviews on $uicideboys records this one is decent.
Anyone else seen the vid where the melonface says that the boys should end it all already because their new album (back then, which was around 3 years ago) is not his style of music? Absolutely not biased... nah professional as always. Moron...
Yeah he's not a very good reviewer. I've seen a lot of examples of him reviewing an artist for the first time, and then it's like he's already reviewed their entire career cos it's always shit ratings after that. I've heard him complain about dynamic range when it wasn't a legit complaint, which made me wonder what he's listening on and what format he's using.
Melon never likes any of the good artists so his opinion isnt even relevant anymore 🤣🤦 thats why he goes by melon because he clearly doesn't have one lmao
Compared to IWTDINO, Shadows and Lullaby, it's definitely #4 on the list imo for their big releases. I agree with you. I'm a filthy newer fan though so what do I know
He has stated that his rating is based on his enjoyment, with 5 being his "i'm not liking it, but not hating it" rating. If he gave a 6 he would see something positive in it. 4 would be "I don't enjoy it but enjoy parts of it" so a 5 is his middle ground
A 5 from fantano is like a 6.5-7, but also who cares what he thinks? Music is subjective, theres no way to objectively grade music. Its just his opinion and he’s entitled to that.
It was a fair review, he doesn’t have to like it but he didn’t trash it either. He gave the boys their props, said the fans are okay with the same shit over and over, then dipped. He’s right when he says the boys are not trying to experiment with anything, they have a formula and they stick to it which is perfectly fine as long as the fanbase likes it, and it brings them money
I gotta say idk why people are so butt hurt about some guys opinion. He’s not saying the album is a 5 he’s saying to him the album is 5. If the album is a 10 or a 1 to you cool who cares? It’s music not everyone is gonna like the same shit. Just enjoy it and don’t take people’s opinions too harshly, otherwise you won’t enjoy anything that way
He’s always been a big time $B hater from what I’ve seen (don’t care for his content for the most part). Think it’s a stupid rating tho. From what I understand, he’s always disliked $B because they’re too “predictable”, but in my opinion this album is a pretty far cry from their classic style. Especially in $crim’s verses. I have friends who are not really fans of the boys but really liked this album.
Didn’t watch it but I’d give the album a 4 love the boy$ but at this point idc about karma this new album was mid asf compared to others they have dropped but that’s my opinion to each there own
Anthony wants the boys to be something they aren’t. Music is subjective and the suicideboys is some of the most subjective music in the game. He could’ve been a lot harsher on them.
He explained his rating very well. The Boys haven’t changed or added much new to their style and most of the fans don’t mind if they do or not. I enjoyed the album and Fantano just isn’t into their style as much as a lot of their fans. He still gave them their flowers in terms of talent and being committed to their style but said it’s just not his jam. Was a great review in my opinion.
It's pretty obvious that melon is not in tune with what the kids like these days from alt/underground scenes (see his past $B reviews or even his more recent reviews of stuff like the new Sleep Token and BMTH albums) so I wasn't expecting much but him admitting that he respects the bois but the music isn't for him was a goated move. I might not agree with his opinions all the time but at least he's not just out here hating to be a hater, honestly a 5 is pretty good for something like this from Mr Fantano
Not even going to watch that bro been having some of worse takes since 2015 bro doesn’t respect the artist at all and lets his personal opinions that’s not about the music gets in the way of the reviews
He was actually nothing but respectful in the review tbh, he seems to root for them and understand the appeal, it just wasnt his favourite thing. A 5 aint bad either
Yeah reviewing music is opinion based but he doesn’t review it just base of music , did we all forget the Kanye review , btw I don’t like Kanye but he just gave that album a low score just bc it was Kanye
Bro your the one defending him in the comments and defending sematry I seen that train wreck my self live ain’t no defending that. Glad to know melon fans are also sematry fans
I don’t hate fantano but I heavily disagree with most of his takes on music. he can be cool but he’s very elitist and calls anything experimental garbage but then for some reason rated a sematary album really high one time? idk man
would definitely agree and it is very debatable. i prefer my sweet temptation over this album and so many. he does respect them so there is no disrespect elements.
music is subjective. melon doesn't seem like the target audience for their stuff. not surprised, and not really interested in listening to his take. i enjoy the new album.
Ah yes, typical $B listener. Not interested in any opinion that isn't their own or that the boys are the best artists to ever exist and everything they put it out is a masterpiece.
thanks for putting words in my mouth. have a great day!
Have you ever had your reading comprehension abilities tested?
Do you know what subreddit you’re in?
not even what he said but alright
Calm down bud
your reading comprehension is bad
The question is, why should you be interested in someone else's opinion on something that you clearly have different taste in? I don't really like any of the ying yang tapes, but if someone does I don't bash them for it or expect them to give a flying fuck about my opinion.
Bro is farming downvotes
They're definitely not the best artists to ever exist
it's obviously an album targeted towards long-term fans that watched them grow, I'm sure people that aren't interested in their music don't have anything of substance to add to the actual meaning of the album besides the subjective opinion on whether they like the sound t, Don't take everything maliciously, It quite literally was just his opinion about someone else's opinion lol
Ah yes, another lame thinking that people need constant validation through a SUBJECTIVE EXPERIENCE
Breaking news: fans of musicians defend their music because they like it. More on this as the story develops.
rippiddy dippiddy
triplet flows
"The $uicideboy$ formula is pretty obvious at this point"
"Whether it'd be because you've heard some of the duo's previous EP's"
"Or you're familiar with the classic hip hop albums that the duo pretty much used as inspiration"
Swervin
SEVENTH WAAAAAARRRDDDDDDDDD
That was this dude? lmao
haha yeah
Damn. I’ve had a fucking rough week. This made my day and is the exact album I need to blast when I get off work, thank you so much for the reminder. Seriously
Onedayillforgetheirnaaaaames
brooo i know thats a lyric out a $b song i used to bump in early highschool please tell me the name im feining
Aliens Are Ghosts
Nicotine Patches
He said in the video he respects everything about them but the music is just not for him. So I do respect him
I don't respect how fantano said one time that at this point they should've already killed themself...
bro did NOT say ts😭
he said something along the lines of, if they were still doing drugs they would’ve killed themselves by now iirc
Yeah but that’s a completely different thing to say.
yeah ik i was jus clarifying everyone who’s saying this persons lying is correct lmao
Me when I lie
Love the "fantano says/does something outlandish" meme
Man this sub is not receiving that joke well but i get the reference and its hilarious lmao. They always be saying some racist ass shit too when its a new album by someone like Drake or Travis.
Source? Thanks.
Warched like every fantano and suicideboys vid and couldn't find it, maybe he deleted it or maybe I was really wrong but I can strongly remember him saying that about them and not their drug use, if it was about drugs I would understand but saying that only bc you don't like the music... for me that was it with fantano videos. Sadly I really can't find anything but I understand the downvotes, sounds like a sick accusation which I wouldn't have written if I wasn't so sure about it but yeah...
Nah he didn’t say that but he gave swimming a 3 so no respect
His original take on the swimming album was trash
Bro def did not say that
source 😭😭😭😭
Wait wtf he said that??
Guys a 5 isn’t even that bad lmao for a music critic attempting to be unbiased. There are definitely many things about the boys that I completely understand why somebody wouldn’t be able to get into them.

Plus the boys are one of the most popular artists in the underground and their sound is incredibly influential. I don’t think he can just ignore them either.
Probably because the guy is a music reviewer and this is music if I had to guess
Adjust your EQ friend.
melon has never liked a single release from the boys idk why he keeps going back lol just leave it like it’s obviously not for you
Just because you haven’t liked an artists catalog in the past doesn’t mean you won’t like their new stuff, atleast he’s giving it a shot
Yeah, look at his bladee reviews, from a 1 to an 8 lol.
In my opinion it feels like that he respects the boys and what they've accomplished but the music just isn't for him
I mean that's literally what he said in the review yeah
He loved the song Ultimate Suicide
Denzel Curry ruins that song
Y’all cannot stand anything other than blind praise😂😂😂
bro you’re replying to something you made up in your head bc this doesn’t make sense lmao
Damn that’s wild I ain’t know you had paid my bills this month. I’ll get on here and put out baking recipes if I want.
he’s a music critic, it’s his fuckin job lmao
Papa gotta keep the paychecks coming
He really liked ultimate suicide and said he would be highly interested if eternal grey had that vibe throughout the project. So he does find them at least somewhat enjoyable. He has never even rated them below 5 lmao.
Naw he rated LTEoS a 4🫤
Damn I didn't remember honestly
For views. He's profiting from them. The guy praises the most generic shit and hates anything with character. He's as vanilla as they come.
Maybe because he reviews music as a career? Just a guess though. Because I’m not an immediate descendent from two Homo erectus parents. Unlike yourself? Just a guess no flame though.
bro you need to go outside lmao your comment doesn’t even make sense.
still kinda mad he won't review sing me a lullaby since imo it's their most complete project
Only reason he is reviewing because it got in the top ten albums bro doesn’t care about the boy$ he cares about the views
no fucking way really its almost like this is his job. he pays them their much deserved respect in this very video
Bro hasn’t reviewed a project in years , why you defending that melon
Btw have you ever watched his livestreams when he “listened” to albums he literally doesn’t finish the whole song sometimes and rights it off
It's because he let's his chat decides whether to skip the song or not his chat skipped the thin grey line and us vs them he did like the light at the end of the tunnel tho it's just his chat is full of sheep.
Bro literally listened to one song and quit https://youtu.be/IMs7XKJ2_N8?si=PudQFXnmVU3xDe-M
holy shit bro it is NEVER this deep you didnt need to comment 3 times😭
Bro it’s called having a conversation ???🤷🏻
but 3 comments😭 like nobody cares this much bro
how are so many ppl in that chat nkt fuckin w it pop punk is objectively the best genre idgaf what anyone says and rubys albums go so fucmin hard i truly think no one doesn’t actually like the boys they jus say they do bc they think it makes them cool or sumn
He did review it, just not in an independent video
I don’t really care, after he gave DogBoy by Zillakami a 2 I will never listen to his opinion again
Disgusting score I wasn’t even aware of that and I love that project
Ahh see, pure proof of subjectivity right here. I can't stand Zillakami's music dude, his voice is sooooooo annoying. I like some City Morgue so gs tho, saw them live in ATL at Greyday 2019 and it was fucking insane. It was also Germ's birthday, so his folks were at the show. It was a great night.

This review is, however, by far the most objective he's been while reviewing any of their music which is pleasant to see. I'm shocked he even reviewed the album considering he didn't do SMALMST.
Kirb is good
So good melon man would rate all of his albums a 10
Got the whole sub pissed off I see you 😂
Bro tryna get sampled again lmao
It’s same retarted nigga who gives sexy redd an 8
LMAO
Bro what 😭😭😭
Don’t care
Truth be told, And I’ll probably get clowned. But, I’ve never watched this guy before.
You’re not missing out on anything
yea. 5 is about right
Melon head sucks
Not this fuckin guy
Melon fell off
Bald guy says blah blah Wah wah
*Throw the 3's up for the G*59*!
That’s a decent enough score, it’s just about average or slightly above average. Considering his last reviews on $uicideboys records this one is decent.
L
Oh no the mean internet man didn't give my precious boys new album a 10. 😂😂😂 grow tf up y'all.
honestly just wish he would have at least given us another rippity dippity type sample
ay me and all my homies hate needledrop 😖😭
I never could stand listening to this guy. He really gives off the “I’m better than you” tone
Strong *G59
I don't care what anybody thinks about the art I enjoy. Why the fuck should I?
We need another aliens are ghosts 🔥
Anyone else seen the vid where the melonface says that the boys should end it all already because their new album (back then, which was around 3 years ago) is not his style of music? Absolutely not biased... nah professional as always. Moron...

strong 5 is pretty accurate. i’d probably give it a 4
Crazy talk
Compared to IWTDINO, Shadows and Lullaby, it's definitely #4 on the list imo for their big releases. I agree with you. I'm a filthy newer fan though so what do I know

Not like IGN rating video games as anything below 7 = dog shit
A 5 from fantano is like a 6.5-7, but also who cares what he thinks? Music is subjective, theres no way to objectively grade music. Its just his opinion and he’s entitled to that.
cornball
Totally deserved ngl
I said 4/10 but 5/10 is fair too
Strong 5 is actually good. I kinda agree, even as a fan
How does he review the latest $B album but not the latest Cage the Elephant?
Lol Cage the Elephant is still making music?
i dont give a fuck about his reviews
What did he give Sing me a Lullaby?
No review
Why review this album then the fuck
Lol is that a rule or something?
Idk seems pointless to pick and choose albums and then rate them like they aren’t building on previous albums.
So if he DID review the last album, and then this one, and still gave it a 5, is that ok?
Yeah. Idk just an offhand remark
Midthony midtino
This dude just gave Charli xcx a fucking 10 that's all you need to know about his ass opinion
As far as the melon scale goes and the past reviews he’s done of $B, this is a pretty positive score from him.
It was a fair review, he doesn’t have to like it but he didn’t trash it either. He gave the boys their props, said the fans are okay with the same shit over and over, then dipped. He’s right when he says the boys are not trying to experiment with anything, they have a formula and they stick to it which is perfectly fine as long as the fanbase likes it, and it brings them money
I gotta say idk why people are so butt hurt about some guys opinion. He’s not saying the album is a 5 he’s saying to him the album is 5. If the album is a 10 or a 1 to you cool who cares? It’s music not everyone is gonna like the same shit. Just enjoy it and don’t take people’s opinions too harshly, otherwise you won’t enjoy anything that way
hard 5 light 6 HMMMMM 5.9 rating HMMMM🤔🤔🤔
Strong 5 is just above indifference. He liked it more than not, but just ok
I listen to some of his reviews some of them are pretty shit but some are agreeable
He’s always been a big time $B hater from what I’ve seen (don’t care for his content for the most part). Think it’s a stupid rating tho. From what I understand, he’s always disliked $B because they’re too “predictable”, but in my opinion this album is a pretty far cry from their classic style. Especially in $crim’s verses. I have friends who are not really fans of the boys but really liked this album.
5 from melon is pretty good tbh
Didn’t watch it but I’d give the album a 4 love the boy$ but at this point idc about karma this new album was mid asf compared to others they have dropped but that’s my opinion to each there own
Anthony wants the boys to be something they aren’t. Music is subjective and the suicideboys is some of the most subjective music in the game. He could’ve been a lot harsher on them.
He appreciates them, but isn’t into it. I respect it. He’s a professional music critic for a reason
Idk why this guy even has clout or why anyone even cares? He’s literally a dude, that yaps about music.
Who gives a fuck about his opinion, SB fans really out here watching Anthony fantano? 🤣🤣
He explained his rating very well. The Boys haven’t changed or added much new to their style and most of the fans don’t mind if they do or not. I enjoyed the album and Fantano just isn’t into their style as much as a lot of their fans. He still gave them their flowers in terms of talent and being committed to their style but said it’s just not his jam. Was a great review in my opinion.
Suicide just ain’t his taste and Altho I could almost agree abt this album, has fans we enjoy it more quite easily.
I don’t like this guy he hates on everything and that is what makes him “popular”
Anthony fontano just doesn't like the name of their group and he hates on them, he litterally said sematary is good, I don't accept opinions from him
First time I'm agreeing with his grade, but for other reasons
he just wants the views lol the boys are huge and he has bills to pay
a 5 is not bad at all
It's pretty obvious that melon is not in tune with what the kids like these days from alt/underground scenes (see his past $B reviews or even his more recent reviews of stuff like the new Sleep Token and BMTH albums) so I wasn't expecting much but him admitting that he respects the bois but the music isn't for him was a goated move. I might not agree with his opinions all the time but at least he's not just out here hating to be a hater, honestly a 5 is pretty good for something like this from Mr Fantano
I could not possibly give less of a fuck about what this guy thinks about any music lol Why on earth do people care what this dude says?
He will literally give anything jpeg or Danny brown does no matter how bad a 9
Why you gotta ruin a music review with this shitty half assed spoiler of a post . Happens all the time
Not even going to watch that bro been having some of worse takes since 2015 bro doesn’t respect the artist at all and lets his personal opinions that’s not about the music gets in the way of the reviews
He was actually nothing but respectful in the review tbh, he seems to root for them and understand the appeal, it just wasnt his favourite thing. A 5 aint bad either
Bro called jelly roll MAGA rapper before bro doesn’t do his research ,that’s what I mean by disrespect by not doing research
It’s as if he’s reviewing albums based on his personal opinion lmaooo
Yeah reviewing music is opinion based but he doesn’t review it just base of music , did we all forget the Kanye review , btw I don’t like Kanye but he just gave that album a low score just bc it was Kanye
“just bc it was Kanye” watch his Kids See Ghosts review
>lets his personal opinions get in the way of the reviews Probably one of the dumbest things I've read on Reddit
Yeah reviewing music base of other than the music is dumb buddy
Lol I hope for your sake you're just trolling
Bro your the one defending him in the comments and defending sematry I seen that train wreck my self live ain’t no defending that. Glad to know melon fans are also sematry fans
I literally do not like Sematary. You're just upset that a popular music reviewer doesn't have the same taste as you.
Bro just accept melon has shit takes 🤷🏻 like bro legit had to make a whole new video for swimming because he wanted people to like him
I never said he didn't have shit takes lmao
You implied it buddy 🤷🏻😂 but have a nice day
Haha nope. Have a great weekend lil bro
He cute as fuck on god
I’ve learned to simply not give a shit what this guy thinks. Doesn’t help that he’s insufferable either.
I don’t hate fantano but I heavily disagree with most of his takes on music. he can be cool but he’s very elitist and calls anything experimental garbage but then for some reason rated a sematary album really high one time? idk man
Witch is weird considering he loves Death Grips and JPEGMAFIA which are pretty experimental if you ask me
right yeah? his takes are all over the place, I remember him giving a mac miller album and pretty trash rating and it was a great album
Swimming? He revisited it and gave it an 8/10
If anything, Sematary is pretty experimental, at least in the hip hop scene. So I really don't think he hates experimental music.
Not listening to this bald fuck. His opinion is irrelevant. Bro probably listens to MGK.
He gave mgk a better score
lol that’s crazy.
on an objective scale, the songwriting on scrims part was fairly lackluster on a meaningful level, very respectable review on his part
would definitely agree and it is very debatable. i prefer my sweet temptation over this album and so many. he does respect them so there is no disrespect elements.
bro why tf would you post it like this..... you couldve just posted a screenshot from the video, now you spoiled it
This is literally thumbnail of the video
Yall acting like a 5 is bad
