pitchfork 90's list

Pitchfork posted a news item today saying that next week they'll be posting their 200 best songs of the 90's feature..

We're sure it's gonna be a nice list.. However, this kinda bums us out because since 5 or 6 months ago, we've been working on choices for a "best 90's songs" feature to post right here... We were gonna wait a little bit since the "80's Jams" thing only wrapped up a few weeks ago, and we don't want our choices to seem redundant with lists from any mainstream publications.. But that's probably going to happen now... Especially if there's excessive redundancy, it just might lessen the impact of our selections.. Or in fact, it most certainly will lessen the impact, because we have a feeling their list is going to be really good. Oh darn.

We know no one really cares, but we'll just say this: The 90 songs for the upcoming "90's Jams" feature have already been chosen and were not influenced by Pitchfork's upcoming 90's list in any way. Are we in the clear now??

A quick breeze through "The Pitchfork 500" makes it pretty easy to predict which selections will be included vs. which ones will remain forgotten.. So hopefully there won't be TOO much redundancy... Man, that would be a bummer.

EDIT: Whatever, fuck waiting around... It's been decided that we're going to rush-post the entire "90's Jams" list complete with videos between now and next Friday...
