The problem with the British media is it`s 'build them up , knock them down' mentality.
As soon as something comes along they hype it up to be the best thing of all time ever , and then a year or so later they won`t give it the time of day.
I remember in 1999 when you couldn`t move for Gay Dad being hyped to high heaven in every single British magazine going Or say in 2001 with The Music .By the time their second albums came out both bands were virtually anonymous.
I think thats why there are hardly any British bands getting any success in the U.S. at the moment.They`re just not given time to build anything before they`re dropped and forgotten about.
