Sod reviewers
British Sea Power always get brilliant reviews, and they're shit.

and U2
we're not a serious band by any means, so it was quite amusing to see a review treating us as such.

it's also amusing following the gig we played on saturday where half the crowd came up afterwards and were gushing about how we were going to go far, which I also don't believe.

the ale was very cheap
there was another review in the same magazine that said this other band's music was half awesome and half like you were being poked with tiny sticks

they probably write their reviews
with a random word generator.

I'm going to take away the "decent enough pub band" comment
and the fact that we were described as "budding" and ignore the rest.

You should firebomb their offices
or post them a poo.

our bass player has had several bands reviewed by the same guy in the past
and he has slated all of them, despite his last band being awesome, and winning a fair number of battle of the bands

he's probably got most cause to fire-poo their office

sounds like it
this chap just might have a chip on his shoulder

That's not a chip.
It's a sliver of Vippers' excreta.

I thought that
then read the other reviews he'd written, which were rather good hehe

frankly though, I'd probably write a similar review of my band, particularly based on the CD he heard.

It's worth keeping in mind that most reviews are essentially about the reviewer.
And how the songs/book/film fits with their own worldview/values.

Alternatively get some oxy-acetylene bottles, long pipes (with spark back arrestors)and a cutting torch with a fine nozzle, and burn the fucker's face off.
