Nice site. Really like the aesthetic. Very responsive. The colours blend nicely. The information is represented in a very interested and intriguing way. 5/10
i can see where Sephy is coming from though because I have always thought of light 6 as a 6 leaning towards a 5 and strong 6 meaning a 6 leaning towards 7
I'm a business data scientist and I sit at work all day making these types of reports, by the time I get home I want to kill everybody that I see on the street, and yet somehow I am happy to watch this video - I guess I have become what I despise most... A data nerd.
That's actually amazing. Fader may have blackmailed you out of your speaking gigs, but when things like this happen you know you're still on the way up. 10/10 music critic.
This made me realise that Chance the Rappers The Big Day is Anthony's second 0/10 ever. Big ups to Speedin' Bullet 2 the Head for being the first ever.
Petit Have you notice the only artists he reviews are white or black and no other races? He's clearly racist. He's always trashing black artists and disregarding other races as inferior to the Ayran race
Am I the only one who'd be interested in seeing a video about his reviewing process? Like how many times he listens to an album, how he kinda assembles his thoughts etc. It's something I've wondered for a while, his reviews strike me as being too well thought out for him to just wing it every time like I do when I listen to a new album. also how could you give DAMN. a 1 but the new CALassic a 7???
This is super interesting. I could spend a while looking at this. As far as requests, I’d like to see more jazz. Finding new jazz is extremely hard, and the genre is really on the rise again, so I keep seeing some new albums come out and I’m recognizing names from Instagram, but finding deeper cuts is so difficult.
Definitely want more “loud rock” reviews (especially if it’s hardcore or even if you’re ripping apart my favorite metalcore bands) Also your opinion helps us find different types of music worth checking out. If I see that yellow flannel, you can believe that I’m going to check out the artist.
Stop being so self-conscious Fantano. If you made an entire video of you saying “ya know,” I would watch the whole thing and continue to love your melon self ❤️
The reason Fantano‘s views are declining is not because his channel is less popular than it used to be, it is because he is reviewing fewer albums. He has reviewed fewer albums this year than all years since 2011
This is actually the first melon video I ever saw. Didn’t make a lot of sense to me the first time (I was pretty baked) but then weeks passed, and I started watching these reviews in my recommendeds, and now I’m on shrooms and I’m watching this again and I see the whole picture
I just listened to the album this week and I was amazed. Then I wached Fantano's video and I was really confused. I guess he's just incredibly biased against SW. He also overlooked both Marco Minnemann and Guthrie Govan, that's when he crossed the line for me, though.
Matheus Violante that's true, the guy has made great music for decades, as a band and also as a solo project. Maybe melon doesn't care for it but he should watch some live shows to see what he's missing.
Nacho531 I appreciate vids like those bc they show Anthony ain’t some little bitch who’s not gonna give his honest feelings on the album bc everyone else thinks differently of it
Rashotcake Problem is his honest feelings didn't really reflect the quality of the album. He dismisses the instumentists (who I've already implied are excellent) and he gives little to no reason as to why he didn't like the album except for it being "too prog" for his taste.
Speaking of requests to review Hip Hop, I'm not sure how you'll feel about the record, you may not love it as much as I do, but a local group called Shredders just dropped their debut called Dangerous Jumps. I think it's fantastic, particularly the beats. Also it'd be really cool to hear what you think of some records by The Dear Hunter. I don't normally bother requesting but I'm a big fan of your analysis of music and would love to hear what you think of certain records.
They used Shiny and ggplot2 in R to create those visualizations! We're making this kind of dashboard in my advanced data visualization class; it's really cool!
honestly so fucking glad fantano isn’t as positive as pitchfork on average, because i know if he reviews something positively (in a genre i enjoy) then i should actually check it out. pitchfork is wildly hit or miss
I think your Hiatus Kayote review received so many dislikes, because you gave the album a score that was far lower, than many people felt, that it deserved. No hard feelings, melon!
That Hiatus Kaiyote review was total BS, he completely missed the appeal of the album and kept nitpicking on things that didn't even matter in the album's context.
Cool website but it hasn't been updated since this video was released and it doesn't mention anywhere on the website a date that these stats were taken. I'm feeling a strong 6 to a light 7.
Okay being irritating and knit picky here, but the whole portion with average reviews doesn't hold water. If it were accurate, it would apply a logarithmic scale to the weight of a review; because the difference in quality between a 4 and a 6 is so much less than the difference in quality between a 6 and an 8, it would be ridiculous to account for each score on a 1:1 score. In fact, fantano gives a plethora of 8's, far more than the number of his 3's, meaning he probably gives an unbelievable number of 4's and 5's to compensate. This is natural, because most music with trend towards mediocrity. However, because music is not measured by the quality of the average, but more often by the best and worst of the genre, this logarithmic scale is better suited for fantanos review system. And if you used this logarithmic scale, I bet you would find that he actually has a much stronger bias towards metal and avant shit than this website would let on. Just sayin'
5 + 5 is 10. Minus DAMN that's 3 quick stats.
Meta mememery
This comment is proof we live in a post-meme society.
This is art.
Normie meme
Underrated.
This just in: Fantano gives music as a whole a 6.25, calls it "derivative of Death Grips."
Sums up needledrop comments altogether
this shows that every record COMBINED is still lower than that Lil Pump Tape 7/10

That shows that he has a pretty good track record, except for a few outliers where we think he's just trying to be shitty af.
Yeezy Yeezy fuck that king Krule review tho
The average score is literally a light 6 lol
Sephy That's not how numbers work.
Handsome Squidward nah, that number scale makes perfect sense /s
A strong six would be closer to 7 as in 6.70-6.90, a light six is 6-6.30
i can see where Sephy is coming from though because I have always thought of light 6 as a 6 leaning towards a 5 and strong 6 meaning a 6 leaning towards 7
Daniel Robinson Light 6 is like 6-6.33, decent 6 is 6.34-6.66, strong is 6.67-6.99, if we break it up into thirds (light, decent, strong).
Do a *gender reveal* at 1,5mil subs!
Gender is not real ,nigga
There are only 2 genders, Man and Melon
Wow dude haha gender reveal haha good one dude
Lmfao
What's a gender reveal??? That's an Honest and serious question.
The whiter the colour the better the score? FADER WAS RIGHT
well, technically, FADER was LEFT and MELON was RIGHT
The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice.
I'm feeling a strong 10 on this thread.

Hard evidence to prove that Anthony hates hip hop
Expurr Anthony doesn't care about black people
Petit Have you notice the only artists he reviews are white or black and no other races? He's clearly racist. He's always trashing black artists and disregarding other races as inferior to the Ayran race
Maybe its because Hip Hop is really trash now?

Charlie Cooper he did a podcast where he interviewed other reviewers and talked about his process some
He has done a video on this before.
I agree, The new CALassic deserves a 12.

You get a 7! You get a 7! Everyone gets 7s!
this is very cool. it's fun to see all these stats compiled!
I'd definitely like to see you review more albums you actually want to review/talk about instead of what's asked for.
Amazing graphic they put together, hope you thanked them!

The dislike ratio on Steven Wilson is justified.

there should have been a "total melon comments by year" graph. that is truly, theneedledrop visualized
We tried to give you bad music, then you have lil pump a 7

damn = 7. Melon make me anger
The number is how much melon enjoyed the music. People can enjoy different music for different reasons

Cool website but it hasn't been updated since this video was released and it doesn't mention anywhere on the website a date that these stats were taken. I'm feeling a strong 6 to a light 7.
I would really like to see those reviews from 2009 or at least what you rated them
the background is slightly different color than the website and it's making me angry
it took melon 20 seconds to figure out it said 40 Million
review Man's Not Hot
Yo man. I want to get into classical music. Any kinda starter pack?
They should have had a section that focuses on different artists over the years. If you’ve reviewed more than two albums by an artist
Well apparently you still don't have time for BONES.
Do you know if these stats include your classic reviews?
Okay being irritating and knit picky here, but the whole portion with average reviews doesn't hold water. If it were accurate, it would apply a logarithmic scale to the weight of a review; because the difference in quality between a 4 and a 6 is so much less than the difference in quality between a 6 and an 8, it would be ridiculous to account for each score on a 1:1 score.
In fact, fantano gives a plethora of 8's, far more than the number of his 3's, meaning he probably gives an unbelievable number of 4's and 5's to compensate. This is natural, because most music with trend towards mediocrity.
