Carrie Underwoods album gets 4/5 stars and an 'editor's pick'???


But, the Springsteen Born To Run reissue becomes the first album of the '00 era to get 5/5 stars (?)

I gotta pick that thing up.

i dont think its the first 00 album to get 5 stars.

also, its not an album from 00, so it doesnt count. they've given a ton of reissues 5 stars.

I guess I missed those. I try and keep a close eye on their reviews. Essentially they have backed themselves into a hole, I mean any 5/5 star album now will have to be one that is re-reviewed, after it already had a rating.

edit: and i did put a (?) thingy there cause I wasnt sure :wink:

Yeah, I don't think it's the reissue that got 5 stars, I think it's hindsight that's 20/20.

Or thereabouts.

I bet if Carrie Underwood and Clay Aikin mated, they'd give birth to a unicorn.

I dont think that Carrie has the right equipment to arouse Clay.

Just sayin. Dude has seen one up close.

Is Aiken still in the closet? I thought it was public knowledge. Hmm.

I suppose this doesn't entirely count since it's comedy, but they gave the David Cross 'Shut Up You Fucking Baby' album 5 stars.

I wouldn't be surprised if allmusic awarded Kid A with 5 stars in a few years. Other than that, I can't think of anything released after 1999 that would receive the maximum score, either for historical or artistic reasons.
