Of course this is an atrocious list, but keeping in mind Rolling Stone’s average reader, I have to say it may not be such a bad thing. They’re throwing some new acts in with the oldies, just to keep people up to date and maybe even turn people on to some new music. I mean, what if some young kid, who isn’t into indie bands, picks it up and decides to check out of one of the lesser known bands? I first started listening to more “indie” music because I read an article in Time magazine about MGMT and decided to check them out. That introduced me to a new world of music. So yeah it’s fun to trash on Rolling Stone, but bear in mind it can serve a purpose.
