As if reviews are some obscure niche subject for weirdoes. Someone tell Letterboxd, Rolling Stone Magazine, Stereogum, IMDB.

I think it's the combination of the rise of accessible playlists AND P4k's review style. Many who read P4k just to find new bands, viewed the review style as an impediment, not a benefit, and left once there were better alternatives.

Personally, I left after the whole Black Kids debacle, where they overhyped, and then trashed, a promising young band and destroyed their career.
