DCist talks to John Vanderslice about the effect of the internet on his music. [via Largehearted Boy]

On Pixel Revolt, I got a review in Spin. It was the first time I’d ever gotten a review in Spin, and we got a letter grade of “C.” And I also got shit-tons of reviews on internet only sites, from Pitchfork on down. We got a really good review on Pitchfork. And usually when you get a really bad review, your hardcore fans write you and say, “Man, fuck this guy,” and when you get a really good review, your hardcore fans write you and say “Oh wow, this was insightful or interesting, this is great, you should be excited.”
