Reverend v Planet Pop

Reverend & The Makers

So, the Reverend, Jon McClure, has been promoting his band’s new album by slagging off everyone in pop to The Sun. Well, it always worked for the Gallaghers.

On Cheryl Cole, and the £350 meet and greet packages apparently available on her upcoming tour: “You can pay £350 to meet her. That’s extortionate. I’d pay £350 NOT to meet her. She had to go away for a bit because people got so fed up of her. She was probably sent to Coventry to work in a car plant. Now she’s back in her Spandex charging £350 to meet her. What next?”

On The Wanted: “The music industry is just going round in a circle. To me, The Wanted sound like 5ive and they were fifteen years ago – and they were shit. Come on!”

On the Bieber: “His bird’s fit. That’s the only thing I can say about him”.

On Katy Perry and Rihanna: “There’s nothing to differentiate them between any other pop lasses”.

And on pop music in general in 2012: “What I’m saying is, it’s about the fact all over this country there are young kids in practice rooms who are dead talented, who get absolutely nowhere because money’s pumped into Justin Bieber and shit like that. Chart music is just fucking dog shit at the minute. Everyone fucking thinks it unless they’re a lunatic”.

Though One Direction were saved from the Reverend’s wrath because Harry Styles follows him on Twitter. That’s the power of social media, people.
