absolutely overjoyed to announce i’ve officially been made paste magazine’s associate editor! it’s a tough time for criticism, but i’m so grateful to continue working to keep it alive with some of the best in the game. as always feel free to pitch me at casey@pastemagazine.com!
Matt changed Paste into appointment reading, and was routinely one of the best interviews my artists did on any given campaign. Whoever hires him, preferably at a well-paying prestigious publication, will have an absolute legend on their hands.
at the end of june, my time at paste magazine will be over after 3.5 years.
not sure what i’m doing next, but i’d still like to write, so you can email me 16mitchellma@gmail.com
this is truly a bigger blow than i can put into words. i owe quite literally everything to matt. they're the reason i work in music criticism at all. they are such an incredible writer, editor, colleague, and friend — please hit them up to have them write for you!!!!

happy teens of denial / joe’s story day! to celebrate, @grace_roso and i had a 2.5 hour conversation about our relationship to ToD, the merits and pitfalls of joe’s story, whether 14 y/os still check CDs out from libraries, and more. read it below<3

ToD means so much to both of us and we both wanted to commemorate it, so instead of a traditional anniversary retrospective, we decided to roundtable it. Two versions of the same album in conversation, two writers in conversation as well.
Broken Social Scene's Kevin Drew and Andrew Whiteman sat down with us to discuss 'Remember the Humans,' creative spats, their “exquisite corpse”-style process, the importance of imperfection, and still not knowing which songs they actually played on. pastemagazine.com/music/brok…
