OPEN LETTER TO PITCHFORK FROM AN INDIE ROCK BAND

The indie rock blog Brooklyn Vegan posted an open letter to career-making/career-ending indie rock blog Pitchfork from a band called the Airborne Toxic Event. Apparently, this band (who sound like The Strokes to me) are pretty hyped and Pitchfork took them down, as they often do to bands after a certain amount of time. The letter is interesting: it's funny that the band admitted to enjoying Pitchfork's infamous career-ending Jet review.  But clearly they felt that the blog didn't give them a fair shake.  

The indie rock world is a weird place.  Not weird like Primus or Tom Waits. Weird like Heathers.
