Pitchfork responded the next morning with a headline that would echo across the Internet: "Wavves Self-Destruct in Barcelona." Indie sites Brooklyn Vegan and Stereogum pounced on the story, and their reader comment sections quickly turned rancid.
"happy it didnt take longer for everyone to realize this band sucks," said one commenter on Brooklyn Vegan
From article on Wavves
It's all about the "next big thing" and then "how to take down the next big thing"... I don't know which is worse.

I actually like Pitchfork and mp3 blogs are my favorite way to find music
The intertubes just makes it easier and faster for all the snarky music geeks to vent their spleen and annoit their own egos. Nothing we didn't do as kids hanging out at record shops, defining our personal taste with tasteless attacks on musicians we'd never meet!
It's always been that way in the music industry. It's just much faster now.
Totally agree...
