They were not shit,
but they were deeply boring to me, as a pretentious teenager at the time when Mercury died and the entire nation overnight decided they were a super important band and integral to our national identity.
They do have a number of cracking tunes and earworms, and Mercury was a great frontman comparable to the likes of Al Atkins and Brian Johnson.

I'm sure they have a few appallingly shit tunes
and I'm not a fan, but it's not like they were a bad band badly making bad music.

I don't hate them, I just wish they'd never released any music.

If I could go back in time with a loaded gun I'd probably assassinate Brian May, then Richard Madeley.
