They always seem to sneak Lana Del Ray in too, just completely out of context of their other tastes. Surely must be gettin paid $$$ by her record company to touch the 'underground/hip' audience. Can't stand all the shit about rappers and kanye they post up too.

they were at their most stupid when they covered the "azealia banks v baauer twitclash omglol" stuff two weeks ago... they must have made 4 or 5 articles on that, and even them said it was boring (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid ... 686&type=1). why write about it if it "rumbles on like a really boring train"? :u:

Do any of them make any money? FACT seem completely irrelevant - it's almost as if their content is driven by advertising or something. either that or they are too busy / pressured to do quality control.

also i feel like the general tone is bitter failed creative turned journo

I actually like Resident Advisor for some lesser known white label review that only Philip Sherburne knows about http://www.residentadvisor.net/review-v ... x?id=11873

But majority of the reviews I read are in polish. This blog rules http://fightsuzan.blogspot.com/
