Rumpus Book ClubA Dozen Quotable Moments and the end of Music Criticism
Music critic Christopher Weingarten goes for ten minutes about Twitter, Bonnaroo, and the death of music criticism. “By this time next year I’m going to need a new job.”
Some memorable quotes from Paste Magazine:
1. “I am a freelance writer for RollingStone.com, the Village Voice, Revolver magazine, Decibel magazine, Idolator and more. By this time next year, I’m going to need a new job.”
6. “All that a music review does now is reinforce the opinion that somebody already has.”
7. “Crowdsourcing killed punk rock. Hands down. Crowdsourcing kills art. Crowdsourcing killed indie rock. It’s bullshit. You wanna know why? ‘Cause crowds have terrible taste. People have awful taste.”
