"Never afraid to experiment, Pitchfork’s appeal stems from its yearly approach to curation.… The festival is not just interested in nostalgia or the state of the music today, but also the future of music. Acts further down on the lineup list may not perform sold-out shows at large venues just yet, but they are important to the state of underground and independent music, and speak to what will be new and next a year or two down the road. A big thing like a pandemic has not changed that ethos for the festival."
