I quite liked a pithy little one-line review of Coldplay's (then) latest dirgefest -

"X+Y=Zzzzzzzzzz"

My favourite band review:
"A cacophonous combination of screeching oscillations, sickening, bowel spilling bass, and bludgeoning drums [...] For forty minutes straight the band set your balls on fire and watch as your writhe in pain while they laugh and perform unnecessary surgery on the rest of your body."

Doesn't really count as a put-down, though, as this was a GOOD review. He gave them 5 stars.

I didn't rate Ocean Colour Scene's new direction, myself.
