I only like Pitchfork when they make fun of Kings of Leon. :mrgreen:

Christians have the Bible.
Jews have the Torah.
Muslims have the Koran.

Hipsters who are between the ages of 20-30 and claim to live in Williamsburg (but who really still live with their mom in Queens) have Pitchfork Media.

Normal guy: Hey, let's go try that restaurant in Tribeca.
Hipster: I only want to go if it received an 8.0 or higher on Pitchfork.

Also known as Pitchfork Media. A pretentious, elitist, hype-mongering, trend-obsessed piece of shit website that specializes in "independent music".

Known for giving gushing reviews to anything that sounds remotely obscure. Even if the music itself actually sucks. No, wait, ESPECIALLY if the music itself actually sucks.

Too bad it only exists in online format or else I'd wipe my ass with their sorry excuses for reviews.

Also, all too appropriately, every hipster's holy grail.

HIPSTER: Hey did you see Pitchfork's review of the new animal collective? It got a 9.6, so it's obviously one of the quintessential albums of the decade.

MUSIC FAN: I think I'd rather listen to Tool's "Lateralus"

HIPSTER: Psshh, lame!! pitchfork only gave that album a 1.9. Tool obviously sucks to anyone with taste in music.

MUSIC FAN: Riight. But you obviously have amazing taste since you base your opinions entirely off of Pitchfork's numerical rating system. Way to go douche bag.







Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I'm thankful for all of you, who despite Pitchfork, remain proud and happy Pearl Jam fans. We kinda rock. Wait, that's what Pitchfork would say. What I mean is, WE FUCKING ROCK!!

And may Robert Christgau perish in a fire. I say we roast all these turkeys. But I guess that wouldn't be keeping with the holiday spirit. Oh well. Cheers to all who follow their heart and bring good cheer to others. That's what I'm most thankful for. And good beer. Amen.
