Music Guardian
With a little fanfare, especially early in the morning, when not much else is happening media-wise, Music Guardian launched today.
True, I hadn’t expected anything as extensive or indulgent as Stylus Magazine or my favourite: Pitchfork, but Music Guardian appears to be little more than re-hashed Guardian content. You can tell by the brevity of the album reviews, except when it comes to the most-important-album-of-the-week, which at launch is a sound deconstruction of Rudebox. Whilst Rudebox probably deserves 2 stars, it doesn’t deserve that length of review. If it’s poor tell it like it is. Quickly.
For the first six months, Music Guardian will be sponsored by Intel. And, boy, don’t you know it.
