Bloc Party's Kele Okereke unimpressed with British music press

Bloc Party's Kele Okereke told Contactmusic that British music journalists ask unimportant questions, saying the mainstream press is more concerned with inessentials.

Bloc Party's Kele Okereke has hit out at the British press who, he says, only ever ask stupid questions (obviously needs to do an interview with CMU - we only ask the important questions). According to the aforementioned Contactmusic, Okereke says: "In the last few months I haven't been asked any questions about anything I view to be important, so that's frustrating. No one's asking us questions that have anything to do with why we started this. I don't dislike doing interviews in Europe, I don't dislike doing interviews in America; it just feels like the mainstream music press in Britain is completely concerned with something that isn't essential."
