I shouldn't worry too much about the NME it's a sinking ship of fools.
I read at the weekend (think it was the Independent) that it's sales figures have slumped dramatically. At its peak it regularly sold more than quarter of a million copies a week, it's now down to something like sixty...
Like i said i'm not talking about balanced criticism, this drivel below was the first post i saw on the main page, one of many.

Oh joy, another load of ham-fisted, meat grinder-esque guitar performances from Boz and co. Morrissey will harp on once more about his problems all...
In a week when Richard and Judy announce they're not retiring after all, Spandau ballet reform and Michael Jackson re-releases thriller why does Moz get such a slagging, from his own fans!
It's understandable from those that never got him, but this site is rife with venom spouting. They cant...
Like anyone from a religious family he's been brainwashed since birth, it takes a lot of escaping from, a great deal of original and intelligent thought, and even then the guilt drags many back.

'Devil Woman', 'Carrie', and 'Wired for Sound' is plainly mentally ill.
HAHAHA take me away and lock me up.
Anyone who cant see through a pale and frankly embarrassing Elvis imitator without an original thought in his oversized head is clearly sane and should stand for M.P.
I wont share you. ( obviously)
Heaven knows I'm miserable now.
Do your best don't worry.
I like you.
If you don't like me don't look at me (specially for the in-laws)
"in my opinion, what sucks is people stuck in the smiths who dont like anything moz creates now. you are the quarry, your arsenal, etc..are even better then smiths stuff."
Very true.
the sad thing is there are so many of them. Mozzer's song writing has continued to 'Blossom and grow' even...
Depends how much your expecting for it.
Somebody put a Moz shirt from one of the London dates this year on e-bay with a reserve of £999!

Yeah i'd agree with that,

There is a hell of lot of contenders for this category isnt there!
i would agree with most if not all that have been posted (apart from the ordinary boys) but the award for biggest waste of space, the most overrated earth shatteringly talentless and mind numbingly boring act of all time has to...
"Show me a barrel and watch me scrape it, faced with the music as always i'll face it"
Takes some beating really doesnt it, go on admit it.
Humour, irony, heart wrenching honesty, wrapped up in double barrel metaphor. sums the man up beautifully i think. :cool:
The queen is dead, long live the king.
I have to confess that i whole heartedly resisted the Smiths at first, i have always run a mile from anything that holds mass appeal on the grounds that it could never hold any interest for me.
As a die hard punk i shunned and too my shame derided them...
