Onion Aesthetics

America's Finest News Source reviews music. Music itself. Under the heading "Pitchfork Gives Music 6.8":
"Music's first offering, an eclectic, disparate, but mostly functional compendium of influences from 5000 B.C. to present day, hints that this trend's time may not only have fully arrived, but is already on the wane," Schreiber wrote. "If music has any chance of keeping our interest, it's going to have to move beyond the same palatable but predictable notes, meters, melodies, tonalities, atonalities, timbres, and harmonies."
For the thoroughly burned out critic,
Everything old seems arthritic.
