why has no one made an "Onion-style" parody site for music? i thought pitchfork was for the longest time, but someone explained recently that they think they're legit.
should we start this site ourselves? i've got some ideas for articles
Why has no one made an "Onion-style" parody site for music? i thought pitchfork was for the longest time...
Luis Brown
Logan Adams
I'd write for it
Jeremiah Edwards
I have a weird feeling that one exists but I can't think of what it was
>should we start this site ourselves?
If it doesn't exist then definitely
John Carter
There is one you idiot. Hard Times.
Julian Harris
The Hard Times is kinda like that but they never review music.
Grayson Rodriguez
There already is one that puts on the persona of a befuddled 50-something-dadrocker. I don't recall the name, though-- I just know their logo makes fun of Kanye.
Luis Cruz
that's niche humor for punk dipshits
Jackson Adams
didn't know this existed, but it seems like it's not a parody of music sites, just a parody of news sites in general with more music-oriented articles than the onion
Angel Hill
That one is too tongue and cheek. If it's going to be like the onion, it's gotta be more subtle (or at least more subtle)
Ayden Miller
this is a great idea actually
Jason Johnson
it could be a parody of Pitchfork called "Pisspoor"
Christopher Rogers
There's wundergroundmusic.com
Jaxson Gomez
You mean, like Sup Forums?
Joseph Kelly
Wasn't there that facebook group of "dadrockers" that review albums
Ethan Collins
call it pitchpork
Christian Campbell
>that's niche humor for punk dipshits
No it isn't.
It's the closest thing to The Onion for music that exists.
Isaac Clark
Didn't The Onion do a great article about Pitchfork giving music a 6/10 and not being better on the whole than some meme album, made me crack up
Tyler Wood
theonion.com
>In the end, though music can be brilliant at times, the whole medium comes off as derivative of Pavement.
Easton Torres
wouldn't do well.
Isaac Nelson
irrelevant opinion
Anthony Russell
ok thats actually genius
Austin King
There's this website, but that's about it
Lincoln Carter
no its true. carles already did something like that with hipster-runoff
everybody on the internet who cares about this shit is already ironic now.
Jonathan Hill
here's some of my headlines/ideas for articles:
Thom Yorke Continues to Release Music That Isn't OK Computer or Kid A
Bruce Springsteen Pays Tribute to Todd Rundgren Only to Find Out That He Isn't Dead
The Avalanches Die Suddenly, Tragically in a Landslide
Brian Wilson Fired From Gerber for Fucking With Formula
William Basinski Reissues The Disintegration Loops.
Willa Basink eisses Te Disintgrtio Loop
Wll Bain iss e iintgrti op
l Bn s ntg p
Jaxon Phillips
Those are p good user.
Avalanches one is kinda lame tho
Levi Young
Haha, genius
Jose Campbell
There was a really good parody a while back where instead of rating it of quality it rated it based on similarity Kanye West.
Jayden Wood
bump
Logan Rogers
yeah, it seemed funnier in my head
Hunter Jones
Would love to see this happen. Bumperino
Ryder Butler
Hard Times is funny and they've earnt their success through hard work
Colton Ward
like you said pitchfork reads as this a lot already, espcially older reviews
Jacob Ramirez
Does anyone remember the old Pitchfork review where the guy gave it a terrible rating because he didn't listen to it correctly? (something along those lines) I have to read that again
Caleb Phillips
i thought it was the funniest one besides the disintegration loops one
it seemed kinda lame at first but for some reason the more i thought about it the funnier it got to me
Lincoln Wright
>why has no one made an "Onion-style" parody site for music?
Almost every place that talk about music is like this
Nathaniel Clark
I remember when Matt would play my friends garage on a thursday night with ZP. Now he's making the big bucks making fun of punk.
