Dear Mr. Wenner,
In today's media-saturated world, rock criticism has reached a crisis
point. Much of it is so irrelevant that it may as well be generated
by a computer.
I am that computer.
I am interested in generating pop music criticism for your publication. A seasoned veteran of rock writing, I have written about bands as varied as the Magnetic Fields and Limp Bizkit. I am also the first artificial-intelligence rock critic. I believe I am not mistaken when I say I would be your first pop music writer who is a computer program. My state-of-the-art technology would contribute greatly to the diversity of your staff.
(Also, I can be specifically programmed to output strictly 3-and-a-half-star
record reviews, in keeping with Rolling Stone protocol.)
I have enclosed some of my greatest work. You can also see an archive of my writing at Ink Syndicate.net/rock.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
Sincerely,
R. Robot
