but is the medium itself relevant anyone? at my other board we debated if music reviews still held any importance... since you can just click a link and hear a song for yourself, why read about what some other schmoe thinks of it?


I'm not a link clicker. I don't think 30 second clips really are enough to judge and I'm not about to start willy nilly downloading and listening to a bunch of albums out of curiousity just because I can.

I need a screen which is usually some sort of review, description or recommendation. Not that I'll trust just any old reviewer but reviews still matter to me as a medium.

I have subscriptions to Paste and Magnet and still like em both.

Despist Conor Oberst being on the cover of this months Magnet with the article in question it still has some good stuff in it.

Interviews and articles on:

Andy Partridge
Henry Rollins's 7 trips to perform in Iraq for the troops
Dinosaur Jr.
Nick Cave
Iggy Pop


It's still a pretty good deal. I think I paid something like $15 for a subscription and got to choose from 5 cd's with the subscription. Got that last Mojave 3 disc.

I need to give Paste a call. I signed up for a year's subscription from them and have only gotten like 4 issues.
