Much of the music and journalism industries took to Twitter to express their condolences for the end of a publication that shaped so much of the music world. Pitchfork was notorious for it’s album reviews – making or breaking artists. We discuss Pitchfork’s significance within the music media landscape, the purpose it served for up and coming artists to be seen and heard, and what will happen next in the face of evolving technology and culture.
