As a huge music fan, as well as a new blogger in the music space, I’ve read many music review sites and blogs. None are as reliable, nor respected as Pitchfork.com. Pitchfork is where I go to get new music recommendations, as well as browse reviews of some of my favorite albums. Pitchfork has put me on to many artists and albums, and they make it easy to navigate the site for new music releases in the form of “Best New Music.” From music reviews to documentaries, Pitchfork has a lot to offer to music fans.

Pitchfork has thousands and thousands of music reviews, and even allows users to sort by genre and most popular. Unlike some other music blogs, Pitchfork covers many genres and styles of music. The reviews are organized in a way that shows readers a score out of ten, as well as a detailed analysis and breakdown of the album. Therefor, you can immediately see whether or not the writers found an album worth listening to before you even start reading the review. Pitchfork also offers tons of other music related articles, including artist biographies, interviews, and documentaries.

The site itself is minimalistic, but professional and recognizable. The black on white design really allows for the colorful images and articles to grab the reader’s eye. The site is filled with content, but isn’t overwhelming for readers to visit. Pitchfork even offers a section on the front page for the best albums and tracks by year, allowing readers to access exactly what they’re looking for the moment they open the blog. Pitchfork is definitely an adapting and accessible blog, with tons of content on pop culture and music.
