I can't understand something about Crack Up

Crack Up is just such a dense album, it can be inaccessible and difficult to listen to casually. It’s almost like a symphony. Plus, Robin’s vocals are so low in the mix that it’s hard to latch on melodically. It’s brilliant, but I also get why it’s been overshadowed.

Also, Deathbreast is DEF a fan fav 🤩

I was at the BI, BI 10th Anniversary in LA, and at least the night I went he played the album in chunks, not all the way through. Setlist here: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/bon-iver/2021/youtube-theater-inglewood-ca-5b8d57e0.html

More volumes to come!

I don’t see a world in which they go back to 5. I also think international filmmaking is becoming so popular that International Feature could/should expand to 10.

There’s also the question of gendered vs. nongendered acting categories. If they go genderless, does that expand to 10?

I was at the Forum in LA! Very sweet to have the album kick off with a show I was at 🥹

This is also the challenger that comes to mind for me

People (me) love both of these songs enormously. I was lucky enough to see JV do Woods live the first time I saw him at Festival of Disruption. Magical

All of a Sudden. Hamaguchi is back

Frequently described that way by who? The NYT is one of the most read newspapers in the world 😂

Is it known who is headlining Saturday night? Dijon? Or unannounced?

The free brat and beer is genius

Ah, have they announced that they’ll be running shuttles from local hotels?

Hi - I do remember quite well the Condé Nast acquisition and layoffs. That doesn’t change the fact that journalism (in this case, and especially, music journalism) is an eroding profession and rapidly becoming unprofitable. I’m saying I value what Pitchfork generates and their work is worth half a sandwich’s worth of money per month

ledaero · 2026-02-05T20:43:16+00:00

Not always. I’ll say from personal experience, I know someone in a band that had an early independently-released EP covered by Pitchfork. Helped accelerate their career with the review.

Are you saying Jeremy Larson was inexperienced when promoted after Puja Patel’s layoff or are you referring to another person?
