Aryeh Ateiner of Jewish Music Blog Misrepresents Himself to Newspaper!

HaHaHa!!! Aryeh called himself a "musician" in a recent interview with a newspaper. This reporter must know zilch about blogs because if he did even the most basic google search he'd know Aryeh has no respect anywhere in the Jewish blogs community. Everyone knows he has personal beefs with artists and groups and wouldn't know an honest (or fair) review if it hit him in the blog post. You have to read this article, it's hysterical! Rife with more self riotous quotes from the self music blog king.

“I hoped that people would read [my blog] and be more discriminating in the music they listen to and the bands that they hire, and that bands would read it and ensure that they deliver a quality product,” he said. Isn’t that what Lester Bangs wanted too?

Lester Bangs???? OH MY G-D, someone help me, I just fell off my chair from out of control laughter. HOlY CRAP ON A GIANT STICK!!!! He thinks he's Lester Freakin Bangs??? Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!!! Are you mad Aryeh?? Lester was honest, fair, smart, and didn't have any well documented person biases against Groups or Bands that he destroys and hurts with his mean intentioned words.

Lester Bangs? Now I know he's delusional. Aryeh, seriously, tattele, you have serious issues. You want to trash all music so people hire YOU? You think you have even 1/100th of the talent that 90 percent of the real musicians in this industry have? You wish it! You could never make a decent album, and the music that most of us mortals enjoy you trash in hopes of these artists thinking they suck and becoming what? As good as you!!

As specific as it may be, Steiner certainly found his niche. His blog, up and running since 2005, attracts hundreds of viewers per week and was a finalist in the Jewish and Israeli Blog Awards for 2007. He’s developed relationships with the largest Jewish recording labels, which frequently send him press packs to review.

I have to stop to give even more laughter for this paragraph. hundreds per week, is that supposed to be good? A blog like DovBears gets almost 1,000 per day. Real blogs outside the Jewish blog community gets hundreds of thousands per day. He gets what, like 30 hits a day? Thats considered a massive failure in almost every single aspect.

... and his cozy relationship with recording labels? You mean just one, not plural. Just Sameach and no one else and he hasn't posted a review from free cd's from them in months. When he was postings reviews for his free cd's he would kiss their butts and either held back from his usual nastiness or write glowing reviews for free cd's. He sold out and for what? 30 hits a day and a couple of free cd's?

Don't even get me started on that joke of an award program for Israeli Blog Awards. They could never get their act together, every year a new crew, half of them fighting it out on peoples comments sections, even canceling one in the middle and starting it back up a few months later. Come on, that gets you press?
