Pitchfork Sure Is Cutting Edge, And That’s the Problem


This here internet place may have proved a boon for the distribution and "legal" sharing of songs, but it has been the worst thing imaginable for the art of music criticism. Let's face it: Everybody holds several indisputably stupid opinions about music — like my contention that Fleetwood Mac's Lindsey Buckingham is one of the three greatest guitar players who has ever lived — and the internet allows us to proclaim them loudly, taste and common sense be damned. Sharing, in the public domain as in interpersonal relationships, is bad.
