The Fork Looks Different.

For indie music geeks everywhere, Pitchfork.com has become the main source for opinions and being introduced to obscure names that are suddenly thrusted into the spotlight by how good they are, at least according to the site's writers. The ratings are debated all the time, acts like Arcade Fire, Spoon, Battles, and Vampire Weekend have all benefited from the site christening them with the tag of "Best New Music." And this week, the site finally overhauled its traditional interface for a more modern, crisp look. And it looks amazing, though, all of the kinks aren't sorted out by any means. There's a great deal of problems with links and the sort, but overall, Pitchfork continues to be a great resource for music lovers, especially the Forkcast feature with a ton of free songs. Check. It. Out.

(My Note: The Hulu Watching Experience will continue at some point. Maybe. Not right now, though.)
