to be honest, i dont mind if people do hate them because i can see where their coming from. on the other hand, to me their fun, exuberant and wild, characteristics i feel were sadly lacking in british music up until the release of Up the Bracket. they put life back into the scene and like them or not you cannot fault them for that - nor the influence they've had. plus, i personally can identify with doherty and barats lyrics - which is important to me.
