Online music stalwarts, Pitchfork have unveiled plans for a new mobile and tablet app that attempts to recreate the sensory experience of print magazines.
Influenced by their recent-introduced, and much-acclaimed, Cover Story features, the publication will now launch Pitchfork Weekly later this month.
The company’s President, Chris Kaskie recently told Mashable: “We’ve gone through different iterations of building an app before. We never did anything with them because they never felt inspiring enough and an accurate enough representation of what we were doing online.”
Now, that seems to have all changed. You can see photos of what the app will look like beneath.
