Hindsight have never been a band to shy away from criticism, and welcome all kinds of feedback whether postive or otherwise. I was interested in your comments and would like to reply, unfortunately you omitted to leave a contact e-mail address so I cannot reply to you in person, leaving me no choice but to publicly address your issues with the band
It seems to me that you have some sort of personal issue with either myself or Tom (drummer) which is possibly clouding your judgement of our music. I would really like to know what this issue may be assuming this is the case. Both myself and Tom have no idea who you are, so we can only assume that if you do have some problem with us personally your opinion of us has been formed from the opinions of others, disappointing really as i would have hoped you were intelligent enough to form your own opinions of someone based on first hand experience rather than relying on the pre-conceived opinions of others. If you wish to address this feel free to e-mail me or leave a message, please leave a contact e-mail as I'd rather reply directly than publicly.
We understand that our style of music is never going to appeal to everyone, fair enough you may hate our music, by our own admission we played a particularly bad show that evening on a bill that we thought we really didn't fit into musically. Our stlye of music may not be to your taste, but may i suggest that if you do have the personal misfortune of being at one of our shows in the future please take our set as an opportunity to visit the bar, talk to your friends or just generally ignore us. We went down really badly at that show, but eight months on and with a more progressive direction and sound we are about to headline a show at the leas cliff, and I can guarantee you there will be around 600 people there that do not share your opinion of us. Guess it all comes down to taste really, far be it from me to patronise you by saying some clichéd line like 'If you don't like it don't listen to it.....'
With regards your comments making remarks about mine and tom's sexuality based purely on supposition, I suggest you really need to grow up. Making insults regarding sexuality is viewed by many leading psychologists as a vice for venting one's own frustration, stemming from a struggle to accept their own sexuality issues. Get some advice on this and don't be afraid to confront your fears, the longer you bottle this up the more the resentment is going to come out in different ways.
More worrying still is your metaphor for me removing my shirt. I'll admit to being an exhibitionist when it comes to stage performance, you may not like it etc., but i'm not about to change that for you. You're the first person to suggest that i look foolish so i'll take some consolation in that. However my main point on this topic is that you seem to have some experience in using six year olds with their tops off as a point of reference for this, again i suggest it's about time you addressed your sexuality issues.
Feel free to contact me via the website if you wish to continue this discussion, please leave an e-mail address this time as i'd rather talk privately about this. Do you actually make a habit of complaining about bands on their website or do you just have a personal vendetta against us for whatever reason? Waiting anxiously to find out what we've done to upset you or if you are sad enough to bitch about bands instead of just ignoring them, either way you really need to develop your internet skills as it's taken you about eight months to find our website. That's quite some time to hold a grudge, perhaps you could vent your angst in a more productive way??
Grow up.
Ken. contact me
