Well, you can't please everybody, all of the time...
Mogwai, recently dealt a bad hand by the NME in a review of forthcoming single 'Friend Of The Night', have hit back at the music weekly through their website.
“NME, the relevant newspaper for serious music fans. News: we are as ground breaking as Snow Patrol according to the NME.
“Cool. Roll on the millions of pounds. The worried look on my face as the NME gives us a less than favourable single review is quite a picture.
“Literally hundreds of people now have a negative impression of our new hit single before it's even out yet. How can we win in this situation? Damn it!”
'Friend Of The Night' is a lot better than Snow Patrol's output of late and is released on January 30th.
