#340 - BienVenue | Threes for Thursday | Pitchfork’s Rating Guide

The Red Nots played a show at the historic Paradise Rock Club in Boston last week. The 933 capacity theater is now a Live Nation venue and it’s hosted some major acts over its 48 years in operation. Greg also has a Three for Thursday this week.

Songs:

• Pat Metheny - Phase Dance Live '78

• Karnivool - Aozora

• Meat Puppets - Backwater

Now that Pitchfork is now allowing monthly subscribers to contribute their own ratings for albums, they’ve decided to pull back the curtain on the criteria for their 0-10 scoring system. Jay thought it’d be a fun to review the guide and then rate some classic albums to compare our scores to Pitchfork. 

Song: Mclusky - “i know computer”

Nick closes us out with another Three For Thursday. Having spent most of the day listening to Apple’s Discovery station, he also has some additional theories on how songs are selected.

Songs:

• GUM & Ambrose Kenny-Smith - “Snow Angels”

• Yussef Dayes - “Rust (feat. Tom Misch)”

• Westside Cowboy - “Strange Taxidermy”
