Dan is affectionately known as “America’s only music writer” and when you glance at his impact, it’s easy to know why. Throughout the years he’s told brilliantly human stories about artists like Jimmy Eat World, Laura Jane Grace, and PUP, while also gracing publications like VICE, Noisey, The Guardian, Billboard, etc. On today’s special bonus podcast, I chat with Dan about both REPLY ALT, his successful wild card of a newsletter, and his new book SELLOUT: The Major Label Feeding Frenzy That Swept Punk, Emo, and Hardcore (1994-2007). Be sure to get a copy of SELLOUT after you hear today’s chat; the book is out now!
