BrooklynVegan

A New York Times Style piece reports that BrooklynVegan, the influential indie rock blog that shaped music discourse in the 2000s and 2010s, has become a 'ghost site' — still online but hollowed out, reportedly following changes under corporate ownership. The article traces how independent music blogs that once broke bands and set taste have faded as their businesses were absorbed by media companies, with BrooklynVegan cited as a prime example of the decline.
