here some food for thought:

Pitchfork original review of Lateralus...scored a 1.9

https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/8104-lateralus/

found this later, 10,000 Days review, score of 5.9

https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/8105-10000-days/

Is that pitchfork Lateralus score a mistake? I skimmed the article and he seemed to like it. Is Pitchfork a joke site?

And the 10,000 days review is also a joke to me and some hundred thousands other fans.

Kid A got a 10 on Pitchfork, Amnesiac a 9, Ok Computer a 10 while NiN’s The Fragile got a 2.

The Lateralus Pitchfork review always baffled me, no explanation. The Fragile reviews as well.

I actually find that Pitchfork reviews for new music generally hit the mark, but there's a bunch of them that are pure clickbait. Radiohead could release an album of white noise and it would receive greater than an 8 out of 10.

Keen for another interview, but I'd like them to dive a bit more into the new album rather than just high level talk.

I know this isn’t the place to post this but i couldn't find any solutions online so maybe you guys can help me.

I was on Apple music but i downloaded Spotify last week, usually when i searched for an artist i used to get a list of the top 5 popular songs with a stream count underneath each song but something happened and now i’m getting a paragraph of random song with “and more” at the end.

Could it be because i’m on the free version and somehow there was a time limit or something? Getting the most popular songs with stream counts was pretty useful.

It's a "feature" when using the free version. IIRC, when using free mode, it can only play music using shuffle. Premium version will fix this so you can play in whatever order you like, also no time limit.

*Edit

I'm not too sure about the time limit thing.
