Who is This?
Stereogum is a music website created by Scott Lapatine in 2003. Lapatine serves as Editor-in-Chief, and his full-time staff includes Amrit Singh, Jim Jazwiecki, Brandon Stosuy, and Angela Williams. Updated daily, the site features fully legal mp3 downloads, video premieres, artist tour dates, concert reviews, and music-related news and gossip. Weekly columns include Band To Watch (past honorees include Arcade Fire, Lily Allen, and Beirut), Video Hangover (in which writer Jon McMillan mocks music videos of yesteryear), Premature Evaluation (knee-jerk reviews of leaked pre-release LPs), and Quit Your Day Job (in which Stosuy interviews rising artists about how they make ends meet). In August 2007, Stereogum launched The 'Gum Drop, a weekly e-mail newsletter that premieres one never-before-released mp3 and includes a rock music related sweepstakes.
