Taking wagers on closing price of TNV/PH split: I say $75.went for $56.
If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. As of now I've contacted Richie from Clockcleaner and he said he'd try to find something, but he already has his birthday show the next night. That would have been perfect, but Baltimore confirmed their show pretty quickly.unfortunately, i dont have any sggestions. i'm not really up on how these things come together out here.
yeh this is definitely that PF hype-MO. they have three sections that go across the top, plus ads, and when they got a new pet project, they like to put ads and a news article or two up, then a track review, then an album review all in the span of a like a week or two. if they can tie some shit in the "columns" section to the further the cause, then they do that too i guess.I don't think anyone has said "oh great, Pitchfork mentioned us, now we're gonna be swimming in money and pussy." I know I don't believe that.
of course, and im not trying to accuse you of that either. im was just trying to point out that there's so much getting mentioned on pitchfork on a daily basis that it takes a few times before people pay attention. you might see a peak in myspace listens today but i doubt a large jump in sales....although, since its a label spotlight this might not be completely accurate when compared to a single band mention.
im not even assuming you care to impress the PF readers but i was trying to point out that siltbreeze getting mentioned at all is probably part of a larger scheme to push TNV and is backed by someone somewhere with financial interest. for example....the siltbreeze article is a feature called 'through the cracks' where they mention things the should have been hip to a while ago but for some reason didnt. this time they're talking about TNV's previous releases only a few days after they feature they're new album on matador. do a PF search for they previous feature 'through the cracks' and you'll find a blood visions review the same day they reported jay reatard signing to matador.... coincidence?
i know this probably comes accross extremely pesimistic but its just how i feel about their reporting....don't confuse that with my opinions of the bands b/c i wish them the best.
