I agree with 'whatawasteroftime' but that's what seems to sell these days. watered down, indie music by numbers; ideal for an illiterate teenage generation that's too lazy and ignorant to know better.

kookyChris - firstly calm down before you explode, secondly - this is a bloody comments section, not the Pigeon Detectives fans forum. If you don't like to hear anyone give an opinion other than "don't you just love the Pigeon Detectives" below NME news articles, then go comment on their stupid fans forum all day, and leave opinion to those that have one.....
