Chris DeVille is here to discuss his excellent new book, Such Great Heights – The Complete Cultural History of the Indie Rock Explosion, his history as a music fan, musician, and music journalist at Stereogum, the impact that mass media once had on him as a source for music and music news, why his book has a particular focus on the outsized influence that Pitchfork has had on 21st century pop culture, indie rock, mainstream pop, and poptimism, what is and isn’t covered in his book and a Substack that fills some gaps, upcoming book tour dates, other future plans, and much more.
