Haha, großartig (schon die Schlagzeile)!
„Coming in at an exhausting 7,000 years long, music is weighed down by a few too many mid- tempo tunes, most notably ‚Liebesträume No. 3 in A flat‘ by Franz Liszt and ‚Closing Time‘ by ’90s alt-rock group Semisonic,“ Schreiber wrote. „In the end, though music can be brilliant at times, the whole medium comes off as derivative of Pavement.“
„We can only hope that [music] will begin to grow with its fans over the next few millennia,“ Schreiber said. „If it can stick to what it does well, namely the song ‚Peg‘ by Steely Dan, and Tuvan throat singing, then a sophomore effort will indeed be something to get excited about.“
Still, most analysts agreed that the impact of Pitchfork’s scathing review of music will be dampened by the 2.4 rating it received from Pitchfork staff writer Dave Maher just moments after the initial critique was published online. Maher termed Schreiber’s assessment of music „overwrought, masturbatory posturing intended to make insecure hipsters feel as if they’re part of some imagined elite beau monde.“
