Zeitgeist got a 4.9 and Machina got a 4.2, so that's a decent review from Pitchfork.

i find it bizarre pitchfork reviewer thinks his voice is rougher than it used to be and the album lacks melody.

they are spot on with the lyrics though

i read it w/o looking at the score and thought it'd be about a 6.7

6.3 isn't bad, but it doesn't say much either way

just imagine a dozen of them writing reviews about Paul Simon trying to figure out how to justify this rote pile of samey songs into some kind of career milestone for one of the living legends of rock and roll that is way better than whatever these fucking kids are doing lol deerhunter what is that even?

Surprised that asswipe Christgau doesn't write for Rolling Stone anymore. He's elderly, thinks all new music is shit, and raves about 60 year old musicians. Also writes one sentence and calls it a "review".
