I'm the editor-in-chief of Pitchfork and I wrote Zaireeka, a book in the 33 1/3 series about the Flaming Lips album.

Highlight Reel

Some favorites (under construction).

Taking Pictures of Taking Pictures
About Lana Del Rey, David Lynch, Dirty Beaches, and the idea of music-making as re-blog. By some margin the most popular column I’ve ever written in 10 years of doing this. That’s what a piece about Lana Del Rey gets you!

The Beach Boys: The Smile Sessions 
Had a lot of fun researching and writing this review.  

Watch the Sound
On rap music, fear, aggression, Swans, and what happens when we feel music but don’t necessarily identify with it. This is conceivably my “Odd Future Piece.”

Nine Short Pieces on the Smiths
Pretty self-explanatory.

Add to Playlist; Share; Embed
On year-end list-making and the strange power of sharing your favorite music.

Not Magic Yet
On tUnE-yArDs, Christina Aguiliera, “Beautiful”, “Fiya”, self-loathing, and the transformative power of music. My favorite thing I wrote in calendar year 2010.

Michael Jackson R.I.P.
I wrote this the evening that he died. It’s not very long, but it took me a while. Tried to get at the positive and negative feelings I had for him.
