Maybe it's time to start a new site? Is using this punk site to post your personal Pitchfork favorites really kosher?

I was unaware Mono was a Pitchfork band? I guess I really like a Pitchfork band then.

You must be new around here. Punknews has covered post-rock bands for a long time.

What the fuck is "post-rock"?

Anyway, why call this site punk news if you're going to cover new age stuff like the above?

And what exactly do YOU feel the site should be called? What's your super catchy, ultra concise and apparently better name for this site which has been covering numerous genres and bands since it first launched, hmm? Let's hear your marketing expertise.

Plus, Mono is far from the pedestrian bullshit bands like Explosions in the Sky flaunt to bespectacled teens who don't know how find better music, they actually have some talent behind them.

Use your brain and ears, chompsky-honk, not just your blind loyalty to exclusionary scene ethics.

The next time someone tries to tell me that no one is making good music these days, I'm showing this to them.
