You're absolutely right, it is a bad review. So bad, and without any hint of argument for the lazy criticism it makes, it's hardly worth clicking on the link. This, kids, is how not to write.

Drico.

Yes. It's much more fun to be skewered by someone with an ounce of wit, intelligence or just downright snidey attitude, than it is to be criticised with the finesse and precision of a great big f*** digger picking an ecosystem apart. Probably someone elses ecosystem as well.

That signature is just brilliant! Unlike that review, BTW.

To be fair, the only thing he was picking was his arse.

Thanks. I got in trouble over a slightly risque visual joke involving the Moors Murderers, Hitler and Franz Ferdinand once and I find it helps to be able to instantly distance myself from anything I might say. Also, I imagine I'm legally covered if I suggest that Phillip Schofield and Ferne Britton are 'doing it'. Which they are. Or are they?

Try to sue me if you can you sad old housewife's choice!! Ha! You'll never be as good as Richard and Judie!!!!

What can you expect from Chris Rea's younger brother?

but, as the entire community has seen, the only tracks worth listening to are I'm with stupid and Numb

this guys an idiot, picking on the two weaker tracks on the album.

This is incredibly bad writing. He begins two consecutive sentences with "However" and uses the idiom "to speak of" in two consecutive sentences too. And this sentence is a hoot: "However, two things make this a weak album: the production and the creativity". How can a creativity make anything a bad album? A lack of creativity, yes, but not the creativity in itself. No media worth its salt should publish anything like this.

"What can you expect from Chris Rea's younger brother? "

Serious? I heard somewhere he used to be a drug addict.

Sadly his fortunes have taken a tumble from those halcyon days, since now he apparently scrapes together a living by wiriting album reviews.
