Adam lewis last two reviews

[nastybuller]

Now dont get me wrong mate i liked your last two reviews but ive noticed a pattern with a certain ally swan's review of a band that you are very familiar with.

All bands get bad reviews from time to time so just take it on the chin and put a bad review of your own band to good use and prove ally wrong. making all these 'plod to predictable destinations' and 'drop to my knees in wonder' remarks sounds a bit shite.

surely your better that that?

The bit of the Breech review that I disliked was,

"Archdanton had no image to speak of whatsoever and this is perhaps needed to show the market what they’re about and where they aim to be .... they just need that little “something” extra to promote them into... the market which they have the potential to attract."

Not that I think Archdanton 'rock the house', I haven't heard them, but what's with referring to things in terms of 'the market'?

[Adam SOT+F]

Appreciate your comments guys. Luke, I mentioned the market because I think that its an important part of any review - exmining and even predicting into which(if any market) a band will appeal to. As for the comparisons to Ali's reviews, I, now a little older and wiser can read his reviews, even of my own previous bands with some amount of appreciation - he's clearly a good writer. I try and focus more on the positive aspects of a gig, rather than the negative ones. Im pleased people are liking the reviews, theyre just honest really. Im studying journalism at Uni so its all good practice. Constructive critiscism is good to see though, so cheers.

[who cares]

i loved it when my band got bad reviews.

at least it was a reaction coz sometimes i wondered if people/mates said they liked us so as not to offend us.

but yeah, good writing.

[jameslaco]

Yeah, when people say we're shit it always gives me a good laugh.

[who cares]

i didn't realise you weren't to evryone's taste?

;D

i'll be honest i've seen you guys maybe five times (i think)

twice i thought you were shit, twice = excellent but once i was suprisingly indifferent considering the volume.

still, really looking forward to hearing the ep.

could i review it for ya?

[jameslaco]

We' always either play amazingly or fucking crap (from my perspective anyway). And sure you can review the cd, honesty is always appreciated.

[who cares]

don't thank me after though yeah?

;D

[GBull]

I could never criticise a review I can hardly write.

[David]

I think we either play well, or we're drunk.
Simple as.
