What's your favorite music review site?
Nappuccino:
I'm a fan of Sputnik if only because of a few reviewers there and the community ratings letting you know exactly who rated what. Find some people who rate things the way you would and follow their ratings = you find good music.

--- Quote from: nufan on 22 Feb 2011, 09:38 ---Just tried factmag, and looked at their Radiohead review - jeez it was bad. Utterly unfocused, jumping from hither to thither was zero sense of purpose and far more interested in talking about Radiohead than the actual album. Reminded me of the worst type of Pitchfork review.

Hmm? Specifically discusses over half the tracks in some detail, contextualizes the album in terms of their discography, even talks about the production texture. Dislike it if you want, fine, but it's a load of crap to say it doesn't talk about the actual album.

I think they may collectively have taken on too much of a coke machine glow, if you know what I mean.

As someone who was stoked at the opportunity to write for Cokemachineglow but hasn't heard back from his editor in over 2 weeks I will agree with this.
Anyways I will echo that Tiny Mix Tapes has well written record reviews that usually have more actual review-substance than places like Pitchfork. I also frequent most of the blogs in the Altered Zones crowd, but I'm a little biased since I write for Visitation Rites.
