I Love Music (ILM) is an Internet popular music forum. Notable regular posters have included Momus, Simon Reynolds, PappaWheelie, Philip Sherburne, Drew Daniel of Matmos and The Soft Pink Truth, John Darnielle of The Mountain Goats, Internet personality Ned Raggett, former The Wire editor Mark Sinker, Dom Passantino, former Village Voice music editor Chuck Eddy, and Fluxblog author Matthew Perpetua.[citation needed] ILM originated as the message board for the pop culture website Freaky Trigger.[citation needed]
I Love Music shares server space with its sister board, I Love Everything, which rivals it in size.[citation needed] These two forums fall under the "ILX" banner, as do a number of smaller niche boards, such as the All Noise Dude Summertime Fun Board and Pickle Bar, I Love Books, and I Love Games.[citation needed]
The 2001 ILX compilation Do Not Listen (If You Hate Us) featured songs from regular contributors (such as the Pinefox, Chaki, Vietgrove and the Dayglo Fishermen) to the I Love Music message board.[citation needed] A second volume followed and a third volume was made available in June 2007, having been suggested and then co-ordinated by ILX regular Mark Grout.[citation needed]
As of February 2007, ILX had ceased operating at its former Australian host and has migrated to a Canadian server, sponsored by PaperThinWalls.[citation needed] The board code has recently been re-written from scratch; while the initial code is considerably lacking in features, it is claimed that an updated release is imminent which restores much of the original code's functionality.[citation needed]
Press coverage
Guardian Unlimited described ILM as "a hugely popular discussion board where music bloggers swap ideas and insults."[1] ILM has been mentioned in The New York Times as a "critic-infested" site.[2] Entertainment Weekly ranked ILM 14th on its list of the 25 best music websites.[3] A thread from I Love Music was published in the music writing annual Da Capo Best Music Writing 2002.[4]
