Harsh Reviews

stumbeleine04 [Edit] [Delete] 13:45, 13 November '08

I know alot of people on these boards play in bands, i was just wondering if you had been unjustly slated by a reviewer? Our latest EP came under a barrage of bad blood from a reviewer. He went about criticising us saying we sounded like Athlete (!!WTF open your ears: i hate that band!) and slated us for singing with English accents (we are English!!?). Not only that the review is really pretentious and doesn;t really make sense or draw upon anything? Just how he hates the songs (which and why?) and the production (Ross Robinson was busy the day we recorded it sadly). I struggle to think what planet some of these amateur journos live on. The review came across like he'd had our cd on in the background while he was waiting for his mom to cook his beans on toast.

Anyone else had any horror reviewer moments?
