About this episode

A short history of the music blog world starts us with the NYC bloggers of the late '90s and pushes into the uneasy relationship bands have with a music media that increasingly takes them seriously. Includes interviews with Sarah Lewitinn of Spin, Scott Lapatine of Stereogum, Ryan Schreiber of Pitchfork, and many of the bands they wrote about. Hosted on Acast.
