rsw2010 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Chvrches, an electro-pop band band from Scotland, has fired back at Mike Shinoda and Linkin Park for his comments about the state of rock and roll nowadays. Apparently they weren't happy. http://radio.com/2014/07/01/chvrches-linkin-park-mike-shinoda-disney-commercial-music/ Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinkinMark Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Hah the funny thing is Mike actually likes CHVRCHES and Haim because he was at shows for both those bands recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geki Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) Who cares? Who is this band compared to the Grammy winning, over 50 million albums sold band that is Linkin Park? This shouldn't even be in the news section. I don't care what a bunch of hippie indie people think. Edited July 21, 2014 by Geki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This shouldn't even be in the news section. I don't care what a bunch of hippie indie people think. I can't even understand the people in the interview anyways, some weird ass accent. Calm down, dude. Christ. The interviewer set them up by misquoting Mike and making it seem like he was taking shots at bands. No need to be obnoxious in the same manner.

JZLP-NaughtyNottingham Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) Chvrches was stupid for believing what a journalist said, they should have read more info about Mike's real statement so then they can give their opinion about it.

How do you imagine that? The interviewer asks the question and they say "hey wait a few seconds we have to look it up real quick because we don't believe what you are saying right now"? The whole discussion is completely bullshit because the journalist took Mike's statement out of context and even changed it. Sensationalism at it's best.

sian18 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Mike should remeber what journelists are like. After that I made it a rule I only do e-mail responses to print interviews Because these people love to put a twist to your words To infer that you said something fucking absurd Oh, did I lose you at infer? Not used to hearing a verse that uses over first grade vocabulary words? People used to infer that we were manufactured Now I've got the interviews on file Which people said what Which number to dial So now every enemy screaming insanity All they're ever gonna be's another big fan of me Mike knows what there like he shouldint be geting all pissed off he stated in this song already what its like so why get so angry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I say that Hahninator said that you are an asshole who doesn't know anything about music... would you respond to this? would you bash him? of course not, you don't have to believe me you gotta research a little bit before replying. Chvrches should have said ''We can't comment on that we don't know what you are talking about'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to be obnoxious in the same manner. Sorry, my post was a bit uncalled for. I'm just pissed at bands making fun of my favorite band lately. It was uncalled for , this interview. I still hate Churches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedamian58c Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Christ. I still hate Churches.YOU FUCKING ATEIST, just kidding... There's no reason to hate whole band only because of a stinky asshole, the girl wasn't that bad, she said she has nothing against LP, only that asshat on the left, right beside the cheap journalist/whore, is the respectless dumbass, that pissed us of.

RogueSoul Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I wasn't even aware that those exist, they are nobody bands. Sublime w/ Rome is a nobody/stoner band. CHVRCHES and Sublime, on the other hand, most likely have a fairly active community, if not a forum then fan pages on Facebook or Twitter.

Chvrches should have said ''We can't comment on that we don't know what you are talking about'' first of all that wouldn't work because I attended my first LP concert with him and he brought me into first section after a nice conversation with security. If you want to do that conparison you have to take another user of the LP fanbase of a fanpage I don't read. and in that case: yeah I wouldn't care what some random person thinks of my opinion.

Justin Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Apparently CHVRCHES reposted Mike's response. To me, that says they read it and realize that Mike's quote was taken out of context. It's not like there is an on-going issue here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
