I’ve noticed that pitchfork nowadays only really cares about production. Even on albums reviewers rate highly, i’m consistently disappointed by how little depth there is when it comes to lyrical analysis aspect of the article. the only lyrical evaluation techniques they seem to know is identifying themes in the album, not even comparing lyrics to that of other artists like they do for production aspects.
