Raise your hand if you think Stereogum sorta started sucking about seven months ago. Just sayin.

the drop-off has been very, very noticeable. I hate to say it, but I actually now prefer idolator (which is not saying very much) to stereogum. the gum's current mix of gossipy/gawkernish and music just does not work (only slightly better than the rathole that gawker has become).

Idolator themselves <a href="http://idolator.com/tunes/stereogum/a-music+blog-identity-crisis-who-sucked-the-fun-out-of-stereogum-229736.php" target="_blank">first called </a>the Stereogum drop-off back in January, tagging it as, "a noisy, overcrowded echo chamber."<br /><br />

Stereogum RULED when it posted Britney and LiLo stuff. Seriously. At least you could tell it was being driven by a PERSON.

yeah, they lost their voice... <br /><br /> we like our blogs, like this one, for that familiar voice and point of view...<br /><br /> i wonder, are there any group blogs that are any good??... not on my list of favorites...
