name one metal song that's reached any type of critical mass in the last 5 years tho
yeah, that's a fair point. i just think they've really got a great stable of metal writers right now and it's a shame for them to be mostly shut out of big features like this. i'd have loved some more Kim Kelly or Grayson blurbs.

This song is epic

I get so pumped when that BA bow bow BA comes in
― 龜, Monday, 18 August 2014 19:43 (nine years ago) link
it is pretty good but i agree with alfred that the singer is very weak, the rest of the song overwhelms the vocals
― marcos, Monday, 18 August 2014 19:44 (nine years ago) link
Oh my god they just ran the BA bow bow BA through a filter
It sounds like I'm underwater
Incredible

The BA bow bow BA sound like speeder bikes from Return Of The Jedi (and thus I feel like I'm 5 when that song is on)

I do not like that new Slipknot tune, and I like a few of their singles. Co-sign on the "Rocket Skates" love though - massive tune. (That or "Leathers" or "Tempest" would have been fine parallel-universe inclusions.)

kidding aside, it's an interest question in light of the big BuzzFeed news.

yea how is p4k's readership? they seem bigger and more established than ever
― marcos, Monday, 18 August 2014 20:13 (nine years ago) link
They're a bigger brand but it seems like they have less direct influence re: breaking any artist or band.

You know one of these things in isolation seems like just another tech deal, but viewed as a whole, I think it speaks to the ongoing rapid changes in content1. Big time Silicon Valley VC making a $50 million investment, http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/11/technology/a-move-to-go-beyond-lists-for-content-at-buzzfeed.html2. Apple acquisition of Beats3. Move to curated music for the streaming services (this is probably most significant in terms of Pitchfork, and thus the tie-up with Beats). excellent piece from the wsj: http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304256404579449163704994966

As opposed to when?

Already, most of BuzzFeed’s revenue is derived from BuzzFeed Creative, the company’s 75-person unit dedicated to creating for brands custom video and list-style advertising content that looks similar to its own editorial content.

Before six out of every ten people on the internet had his/her own music blog.
― Everyone's a closet ned. (Johnny Fever), Monday, 18 August 2014 20:57 (nine years ago) link
So a higher quantity of blogs weigh into people's decisions more now? Or do you mean bloggers are less likely to follow masses because they want to pride themselves tastemakers with unique opinions?
― Evan, Monday, 18 August 2014 21:07 (nine years ago) link
...and almost everyone is a blogger so there is less mass hype merely based on pitchfork's perspective on a given artist?

Well, I don't know if that's really the result though. Certain BNM albums fall through the cracks (but it's always been that way), and certain BNM albums explode (but it's always been that way). I'm not sure if there ability to break artists is measurably worse than it's ever been.
