Other 196's:
Their modern reviews are pretty bland, but from 2000-2012 or so, they were probably the best indie reviewers out there. Since then, they gotten a little too afraid to write negative reviews for stuff that other publications like and vice versa (IMHO), but they still provide a slightly different point of view than the big dogs like Rolling Stone.
These days, I typically like Consequence of Sound and Line of Best Fit a little better, and albumoftheyear.org is great for seeing both positive and negative reviews of pretty much everything out there
Edit: albumoftheyear is also a great way to find new music sites, since they cast a pretty wide net
Pitchfork fucking sucks now; they did my bois Clipping. so dirty, how tf you gonna give all of their albums sub-six you fools? They’re masterpieces.
