History

Earmilk began as a small mp3 blog in April 2009.[2] In the following decade, Earmilk grew to its multinational status of today, with writers stationed across Canada and the United States.[3]

Content

In 2013, Refinery29 included Earmilk on its list of "The Best Music Blogs That Aren't Pitchfork."[4] In 2017, the online electronica publication EDM Sauce featured Earmilk in its list of the seven best dubstep blogs on the internet.[2] Earmilk has a noted focus on underground music and their mission statement further specifies their interest in "underground discoveries across all musical genres."[3]

Similar to other online music publications, many Earmilk articles are focused on musical premieres of indie and major label artists.[5][6][7] In 2010, for instance, Earmilk premiered Baths' single "Maximalist," which was later featured on Pitchfork and other online music publications.[8] In addition to its music journalism content, Earmilk publishes articles on events, apparel, and art.[3]
