Pitchfork has sucked for a long time. The move from catering to more underground tastes to this more poptimist thing is probably the most clear shift demonstrating this. Honestly, I had forgotten about the Condé Nast thing but that probably had a lot to do with it. Even before that though, they had an annoying habit of embracing softer, kind of twee leaning indie pop bands (like the Arcade Fire, ironically enough) while dismissing harder and heavier more underground bands, which always kind of bothered me but one could say that’s a matter of personal taste more than anything. All of this being said though, I didn’t think they’d devolve to the point where they’re relying on cancel culture hit pieces for clicks.
