Actually wish I'd never posted it now, I was struck by the 9/10 review
I'm actually really angry about the Jewish guitarist bit and the girl singer bit makes me want to say you can take off some of the marks you given until you do some proper journo training on sexist language, ethnicity, nationality and religion.

At least the journo didn't say Pedro was Mexican, which puts him a point ahead of the NME...
