Let's All Laugh at Pitchfork

Bridgers and Polachek should have broken the top 10. Cool to see Amaarae and Alex G fairly high up.

Lol @ Playboi Carti claiming the #2 spot. Stupid.

had no idea you liked Alex G.

respek.

[Higgs]

I know so few of those albums it's slightly embarrassing.

[spike]

How’d they bring themselves to leave Kanye off.

Not much into white guys who play rock n roll

You post this way too often.

Not a good look.

Sounds like the owners showed the writers the same level of respect the writers showed the music they were writing about.

I said it. That magazine was trash. Every thing I ever read there sounded like it was written by someone who listened to the first 30 seconds of each song. Just mass-produced bitching.

Just an observation based on any given recent pf eoty list

Regular rock n roll just isn't cool enough in their eyes

In other news theyre laying people off

Pitchfork stopped existing a few months ago, right? None of the original people are still there. Now I think it's just run by a Conde Nast intern. It's not really worth it to make fun of them now.

"Best new music" was the only thing ever worth paying attention to. Their regular reviews were edgy trash.

They gave NIN's The Fragile a 2. IDIOTS!

[VinylGuy]

yeah, they have been nailing the jazz recommendations even if i barely read the reviews

[spike]

You guys are ruthless.

I only visit Pitchfork a handful of times per year anymore, but I'm grateful that this wasn't a thing when I was a more frequent visitor to the site -- during those years I think I would have been simultaneously annoyed by its existence yet endlessly tempted to spout off on it. Though probably not for $5/month...

Trag is my Pitchfork. He does an annual now.
