As the editor of the NME himself said, they write about bands for the 17 year old kid with a crappy education who's wasting his life and working full-time in a job he hates. I am none of those things, ergo I really couldn't give a toss about bands who write songs about being thrown out of clubs and blowing their wage packets on smack and slappers.
