Reviews
This was a great podcast, wonder how it will proceed now with all the changes at Pitchfork. The following is my old review (If you love the website, you’ll love the podcast. If you don’t like the website, well it’s Pitchfork.)

like their website and more recently their festival, this podcast is absolute garbage in 2023. if you’re not going to research a single thing about the subjects you speak about, well, then don’t speak about it. pitchfork losing their audience in full over a long, consistent curve is as sad as it...Read full review »

I really enjoyed your podcast episodes until now. Puja, why are you bringing up Israel and a ceasefire in a podcast about music trends in 2023? That was completely unnecessary. We don’t read or listen to Pitchfork for political news and if you’re going to express your biases about a topic that...Read full review »

This pod makes me cringe so much.

Undoubtedly knowledgeable Ivy leaguers slap each others backs and laugh heartily at their privileged world jokes. Painful!

Great interview! These 3 artists - they are so smart!!

One of the better music podcasts, kind of confused by all the one star reviews. And what’s with all the millennial bashing?? We’re like 40 now…

I can tell you all are visibly upping your game and I love it. Keep it up with this podcast, they are thoughtful and wide ranging. Maybe my ask is not to be afraid to have stronger opinions like you have with your reviews - I can sense some tentative attitude, which can be offputting since you...Read full review »

Please get more interesting!! FOO FIGHTERS! Such a joke!!!!
RickHall26 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/21/23
There are a lot of bad reviews here but this podcast is much better than those people say. It seems that any sort of discussion about entertainment by people who are knowledgeable and articulate will be deemed “pretentious” by somebody. There’s nothing wrong with an intellectual look at the music...Read full review »

Boring hosts boring down on easy targets. We’re better than this.

Pretentious and stupid show. Jeremy guy host is so annoying, it is generally just unlistenable. 1 star.
синий тип via Apple Podcasts · Italy · 03/02/23
What is the point of this podcast? It seems like there’s almost no where to turn for true, critical analysis of music anymore. NPRs All Songs Considered has begun catering to the lowest common denominator and so too now had Pitchfork. I don’t need a deep dive into SZA or Taylor Swift. Taylor...Read full review »

There’s something really incestuous about this podcast. It’s a lot of intense explaining at something that is ultimately a matter of taste. Their taste I don’t see as superior just intellectualized which isn’t a meritable quality when discussing the arts. Reminds me a college course where 3 or 4...Read full review »

This new season of the Pitchfork Review is much more enjoyable than the first; it’s awesome to hear editors and writers speak in the classic knowledgeable and trusted voice, but having more fun while doing it!
Tommy_Rowe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/12/23
A bunch of pretentious and entitled millennials talking about music. Eeek!!
jocegu via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/23
Nothing more

Have always loved Pitchfork but this is worse than a waste of time.
myndgarage via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/07/22
These people are everything wrong with music “critics” or writers. The level of snobbery and lack of care for the actual music they discuss is obvious. It seems they are more interested in whether liking or disliking something reflects well upon themselves and is nothing but contrariness...Read full review »

I generally love Pitchfork’s point of view but this podcast is a slog. Is anyone having fun?
john154826 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/01/22
I had had high hopes for the relaunch but was sadly disappointed. In the first 5 mins of the Taylor Swift episode, there was a factual error (she hasn’t re-recorded “all” her old music, as not all of it was subject to the Scooter Braun mess) and an ad for virulent anti-LGBTQ politician Greg...Read full review »

Where are the new episodes! Whereeee

Pitchfork deserves a better podcast than this.
joe419 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/01/21
Listening to their year-end “rock” picks was so embarrassing. I want to hang myself from the secondhand shame.
Patrick H Brownson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/20
great podcast with clever and witty takes on current trends in Indie and other genres. there are looks back at classics and reference music but it’s a sorely missed need in the podcast space
N.r.r. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/20
It’s really hard to follow music trends these days. I grew up with MTV and radio stations curating what’s cool. I love the modern era’s boundless access to music and how genres have diversified and that so many more viewpoints can reach listeners through streaming music platforms but the trade...Read full review »

These guys are moooorons. Seriously, they are idiots who think they’re super smart. They have been in the elite, media bubble for way too long, so they have no idea that there are things that are more important in the world than their stupid politics, which they will not shut up about. They also...Read full review »

Leave it to fans of Pitchfork to destroy Pitchfork in the Pitchfork review section.
manor house films via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/11/20
I was surprised at the subpar production quality and lack of interesting conversation on this podcast - pitchfork has set the bar so high from a writing perspective. It sounds less like informed music journalism and social critique, and more like some not-very-hot Twitter takes. All of that being...Read full review »

The host is met with a lot of low key misogyny from her guest “experts” that she doesn’t know how to deal with which results in a lot of uncomfortable laughter and pregnant pauses. Pretty much unbearable to listen to.

I’ve learnt about a dozen new artists thanks to the crack team of slamming music journos here. Do yourself a favour and listen before you’re lame!
keeganthomson via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 09/02/20
when i saw this podcast recommended to me i was extremely excited! i'm a sucker for in depth music podcasts like nyt popcast, legends only, and switched on pop.. but this podcast is not those podcasts. i had very high expectations solely based on the fact that as a media org pitchfork is a...Read full review »

Considering the Pitchfork site and the reverence for the Pitchfork review. I was excited about this podcast and downloaded it immediately. My disappointment was almost as immediate. I love Dylan, but the stories told in that episode have been rehashed. I don’t really care about TikToc. I believe...Read full review »

Love the pod about pop and whole crew that was there!!! Pls bring them along more often
BahiApple via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/11/20
Episodes about Bob Dylan, Taylor Swift, TikTok... you’d think with the pitchfork name recognition the show could choose subjects that are even a little less obvious, oversaturated, mainstream. Rolling Stone magazine was prob cutting edge at one time too, this podcast (so far) is helping Pitchfork...Read full review »

I suppose there is a “rank and file” system in every organization, but don’t really understand the hierarchy here. Anyway, this podcast is alright, and I chose to subscribe to it in order to support Pitchfork, more than for anything else.
red-on via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/01/20
Very fun to listen to.
B.L.ob via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/31/20
Taylor Swift episode was what I was hoping for from this podcast. Album reviews, music commentary and critique. Hope to see more like this!

This is a fantastic summation of the Condé Nast Pitchfork. Surface, glib, bloodless, full of superficial insights masquerading as criticism, the podcast seems more interested in smug banter and hipness than actual conversation or critique. The hosts trade anecdotes that smell suspiciously...Read full review »

Really enjoyed the Dylan podcast. Over 50 years since John Wesley Harding! Almost 25 since Time Out of Mind. Lots to say about Dylan’s latest work but the Pitchfork commentators were astute and informative.

I love it

Along with the misunderstood Welcome to Chicago, the Review is one of the best music podcasts out there. Excited to hear more!

7.0
A bit disappointing compared to expectations. This thing feels simultaneously a little overproduced and underproduced, with the glossy audio transitions contrasting with the microphone quality generally not being what you’d expect for a production backed by Condé. Puja is a fine host, and I’m...Read full review »
