would be nice if they were as interested in asking musicians what they listen to as they are with tv actors

this beer shit is beyond parody though, like do even people into craft beer care about this?

Cool Courtneys interview. I didn't realize they live in different cities (one of them in France!)

I also didn't realize the guitarist is named "Courtney Loove" (which is obviously f'in awesome)

I just discovered recently (when Snail Mail covered one of their songs) that there was also a band on K Records named Courtney Love:https://www.discogs.com/artist/324130-Courtney-Love-2

damn that's an old-school pitchfork review
never heard a note by these guys but judging by the Zep-obsessed dorks who won't shut up about them I figure this is pretty damn accurate

if you were an incoming freshman in 2005 who put “everything but rap and country” on your Facebook profile, there was another website growing in popularity that year that covered everything: Pitchfork Media.
I’m being unfair. Pitchfork did cover rap once in a while, but that was new at the time.
yeah they weren't as rap-focused in 2005 as they are now, but there are more than 300 pre-2006 hip hop reviews in the archives, so "once in a while" is also also unfair.
― President Keyes, Thursday, 25 October 2018 14:41 (five years ago) link
I mean they also didn’t cover a lot of metal or punk unless it was hipster contingent stuff.

i suppose country music has as much place in The Canon as black metal does

I know Burzum fans love feeling persecuted but most of the important black metal albums came out in the 90s

yeah, all those 90s Bathory and Celtic Frost albums everyone loves

Pitchfork had already published a list of The Top 100 Albums of the 1980s in 2002, since scrubbed from the internet.
um, it's right here. https://pitchfork.com/features/lists-and-guides/the-top-100-albums-of-the-1980s/
― fred-a van vleet (voodoo chili), Thursday, 25 October 2018 22:22 (five years ago) link
iirc you can also donate to Popula via traditional crowdfunding, which is good cuz Civil has turned out to be a fiasco (for some reason???)
― wayne trotsky (Simon H.), Thursday, 25 October 2018 22:33 (five years ago) link
Making it about Burzum seems like a strawman, as if the old Pitchfork celebrated Metallica and Van Halen and never ran a "worst guitar solos of all time" feature that included "Dazed and Confused" and "Comfortably Numb".
