Music Forums and 4chan were amazing for discovery because you had people with extremely hard opinions arguing vociferously against others over which album was best or why such-and-such was awful. Music recommendations feels like somebody constantly prodding you with "oh don't like this? Still widely prevalent in the metal scene at least with people moving to Reddit and Facebook as they age and stop being able to maintain forum software. There's also rateyourmusic. The ability to downvote on reddit changes this dynamic.

This means the community frequently discusses these albums, largely due to their widespread approval by users. The latter examples, for instance, are on the whole seen as the pinnacles of their respective genres — shoegaze, progressive rock and hip-hop. The overall attitude of the average user, given the loose posting rules and anonymity, is occasionally riddled with irony, sarcasm, condescension and general political incorrectness. Meanwhile, the many moments of insightful candor can affirm or challenge your own musical tastes. Because the average user is a self-declared music aficionado, this leads to the discovery of great music you would never have found otherwise. Bizarre subgenres like witch house and vaporwave contain their own newly established traditions and notable albums, despite having only been around for a few years. Unlike Reddit — a site that, like Pitchfork, is often at the butt of jokes — in which users can upvote or downvote posts, threads exist chronologically and only for seven days in the archive.

As the truly committed users are stuck up on their high horse, each anonymous voice declares itself to be true and each person can call out other users by tagging posts in their own. Sure, users can be antagonistic toward one another in disagreement, but usually the users getting flack for their comments are the ones who, according to internet decorum, deserve it. They are the outright contrarians, clueless proletarians and the hyper-pretentious. A thread in which two sides of a topic are debated is something like living art. But as an observer, finding the few declarations that echo your own thoughts can be as emotionally fulfilling as it is aggravating when a favorite of yours has been dragged through the dirt. Others claim its aim towards drug-induced listening and homage to a bygone era of comfortable, Beatles-esque music make the album conceptually derivative. The formats for user interaction are plentiful and creative.
