are they still as influential as they used to be?

They were never influential

>>74951491
Dude they literally dictated the entire 2000s indie scene.

>>74951515
what a bad scene it was

hipster runoff was more influential

unfortunately yes, they're tied with fantano for the only culturally relevant voices in music

it's a shame they're a ghost of their former self

Still influential, but losing every year

>>74951491

>>74951620
what did they mean by this?

>>74951613

I feel Fantano is more i influential to the 22 and under crowd now

P4Ks demographic just keeps getting older

I think Pitchfork meant that colour of skin isn't important but the quality of the music is.
I could be wrong though.

Fantano is arguably the most influential critic of today. This is not b8. This is an objective fact and he's growing only stronger.

Their embrace of normie core poptamism has made them a bland version of themselves. They are no different than Rolling stone or the NME now. They are just coasting off the legacy of the pre conde nasty years when they would post a video of a monkey drinking its piss as a review and would ruin the lives of up and coming bands.

Its not like hiphop became wildly more popular, no

Yes. They have more influence now than ever.

Although since around 2009 they've decided to alienate the audience that built them in order to stay relevant.
