CN Williams – Reverend Run Diss

it before and I’ll say it again: why give these polpee the time of day? Must the Dears be loved and adored by everybody? By most polpee? By ANYONE? Pitchfork ignored your press release. So what? Isn’t that their right? It’s no secret that the Dears’ earlier work borrowed heavily from the Smiths/Morrissey blueprint. Intentionally or not. And so have many other bands. Therefore, is it really so shocking that NME AKA: New Morrissey Express would pounce on any reference you make to Morrissey, their deity? Haven’t you heard of the any publicity is better than none’ logic? What really is the problem here?It’s all a bit sad, really.Having said all that, I’m still a fan and will pick up the album when it comes out. I just wish you’d let some of this other baggage go. My condolences for your loss of the other band members. I’ll miss the excellent guitar work and drumming, but I’m confident that you’ll bounce back.
