Join Robin James as she deep dives into each of the yearly countdowns, showing how the countdown shifts from a pluralistic and “modern” approach to genre to a more guitar-oriented one that views the influence of non-rock genres like electronic dance music and reggae/dub as relics from the 20th century. She’ll discuss how The Modern Rock 500 both reveals the challenges indie media faces in an increasingly financialized industry, and models some successful tactics one indie media institution has used to survive amid those challenges.
