If it is an April Fools joke, then it's the best one I've ever seen. I don't know though... it is Billboard.

This Billboard Article from two years ago is so painfully bad it's funny. Here are a few of the things it says...
-Calls Morrissey an "up-and-coming Brit who combines the guitars of Oasis with the vocals of the Smiths."
-Claims "Pumped Up Kicks is already one of the best songs of our times."
-Talking about Modest Mouse... "Basically no one had heard of this wacky band before they hit us with "Float On," but we think they're on to something. "
-Decemberists: "they like to grow beards and play the banjo and other zany folk instruments, so it's clear Mumford & Sons has been a big influence on them."
-Announces that the guy behind Gorillaz has an up and coming new band called Blur!
-"Here's a hot take: Coldplay is a band to keep your eye on. Some say they could be the next Beatles, or at least Billy Joel."
-Compares 5 Seconds of Summer to The Ramones and The Sex Pistols...
-Apparently thinks all of the above bands, plus Weezer and The Black Keys, are "hot new underground hipster bands".
🧱 Well I thought that was pretty funny...
