04.04.20 | This new list? It's NOT GOOD.
I think this is all if not most of the albums he's given this score to. The NOT GOOD rating is basically the worst rating you can receive by the Melon man himself. For the record, I don't agree with Fantano on everything, most of the music he reviews isn't my style anyway, but I think he knows what he's talking about a lot of the time and I think he's entertaining and enjoyable. Just wanted to hear everyone else's thoughts! I hope we can all agree tho that 6 is good and is not deserving of the rating at all. |

04.04.20 | Pretty good list of shit albums. I personally didn't mind the Justin Bieber album, which makes me wonder why everyone else didn't love it. Most of these are for sure garbage, though. Worst one I've heard on here was Fall Out Boy's dumpster baby |

04.04.20 | "The NOT GOOD rating is basically the worst rating you can receive by the Melon man himself."
Has he come out and said this? Cause it always seemed like it meant "I don't like the album and I don't really care enough about it to do a full review, but it's super popular and people expect me to talk about it so here's this video". A lot of these reviews aren't even all that negative, just kinda indifferent. |

04.04.20 | he gave lil ugly mane's oblivion access a low ass rating and I haven't watched since. his reasoning for it being bad was essentially because it was too similar to what he likes about death grips |

04.04.20 | @MrAlex It's in either one of his let's argues or a full video he actually dedicated on his alternate channel dedicated to non-reviews, but he has stated that NOT GOOD is in a way worse than either a 1 or 0 because it means they're not worth his time or worth dedicating a proper review on |

04.04.20 | California is awesome fuck fantano |

04.04.20 | @tvc I guess it makes more sense when put that way... though it's funny he feels that way yet still makes these videos and farms in six figure views anyway. Not a coincidence that all these artists are/were about as popular as it gets (in the realm of their genres that is). |

04.05.20 | I think he was in a bad mood when he listened to that meshuggah album, but metal is definitely a genre he has little love for in general. I wouldn't go to him when a big metal album drops. |

04.05.20 | Yeah wtf is 6 doing here, fucking Melon |
TVC15
04.05.20 | In a recent Let's Argue vid, Fantano said he still stands by 6 being a bad album. He just doesn't like prog metal/djent |

04.05.20 | "his reasoning for it being bad was essentially because it was too similar to what he likes about death grips"
lol wtf
also, prog metalcore is the best thing happening in the metal scene right now. that's where are the talent is hiding, anyway. |

04.05.20 | I preferred thatistheplan exponentially more than theneedledrop |
twlight
04.05.20 | It doesn't take a genius or " music's busiest music nerd" to know these albums suck |
twlight
04.05.20 | Yeah no meshuggah album should even be mentioned next to these abominations |
rellik009
04.05.20 | if it wasn't for theneedledrop, I wouldn't have gotten into music(and experimental music) this much in the first place.
So even if the old man is decaying in certain areas, kudos to him for getting me into this long musical journey |

04.05.20 | funniest on here is probably the Skillet NOT GOOD |

04.05.20 | Don't get me wrong I like Fabtano, but he was hardly the reason I love music ... |
bloodshy
04.05.20 | He has good objective takes and all that, but his actual musical preferences are pretty unpredictable. |
Sinternet
04.05.20 | 3, 9, 12, 31 are wrong tbh like they ain't great but none of them are bad |
rabidfish
04.05.20 | Dude knows what he likes and he knows what he knows and he knows he likes roadhead, baby yea! |
Aberf
04.05.20 | Agreed with 3 and 12 Sint. They aren't bad at all. Not sure about 9 and 31 tho. |
Demon of the Fall
04.05.20 | I stumble across enough bad music trying to find good music, I would never purposely look for it unless I already had a previous investment in the artist, which I guess you could file under ‘curiosity’ or ‘obligation’. |
ResidentNihilist
04.05.20 | have to agree with his reasoning for 6 tbh though i like their earlier stuff. |
bloodshy
04.05.20 | sometimes i look for bad stuff to get my objectivity rating up. is that wrong? |

I couldnt wrap my head around that review. Its fine to not like the album but he came at it with such a condescending bitterness and missed the point on so much of it wildly.

unclereich
04.06.20 | Yep and he does that a lot. Look im a death grips homer but if your reasoning as to why a rap album is bad is “well death grips does these themes better” then you cant be taken seriously as a reviewer |
Aberf
04.06.20 | "sometimes i look for bad stuff to get my objectivity rating up. is that wrong?"
Not necessarily. I used to do that until I realize nobody gives a crap about objectivity and frankly, it's a waste of time. |
bloodshy
04.06.20 | it's the video game completionist part of me that needs that score higher. i totally realize it's pointless though, lol |
Element
07.19.20 | the meshuggah review felt like he missed the point of the album/band. |
