People get so irritated by Pitchfork, its really funny.
I find it has the opposite effect everyone thinks it does. When they highly rate an album, everyone laments that Pitchfork rated it too high and makes it their goal to say its mediocre, and then promote some other band Pitchfork didnt rate as high.
I think Pitchfork is a great tool to discover new music. Not infallible, but then again, contrary to popular belief on this forum, nobody ever said they were.
