Dearest Kerrang, I thought it was most shitty of you to do a photo call for Olly Sykes and Josh at the signing tent when Black Veil Brides were meeting fans. There were loads of other places for a similar photo oppourtunity! dicks.... my daughter stood it that queue for almost 3 hours and you ruined her 2minutes in the tent with bvb by doing this!
Last year she queued for 3 hours in the pissn rain to be told theres too many waiting!

All bands have not been reviewed. Why is this?

Posted by Jim Cameron | June 13, 2012 12:34 PM | Reply to this

Cath what happened? Oli and Josh seem like total cunts tbh.. Why would they even go to the bvb signing tent? I totally respect the BVB guys now, k! awards and Download must been hard for them! Obvs, everyone is jealous of their speedy success! I hope they set all the haters on FIREEE!

I used to buy Kerrang every week. I NEVER buy it anymore. There used to be so many interesting bands in the magazine. Now all I see is My Chemical Romance? I swear if I had continued buying Kerrang this last year I would have over 50 posters of MCR, BVB and BMTH and that kind of shit. What the heck is going on? I used to be so excited to go buy the mag every week. Get your shit together!

But oh well, I can see the name "Henry Rollins" in this issue. That's the only good thing you've had for months.

I only just started buying this magazine, and I loved getting posters out of it.. I like bands like bvb, bmth, sleeping with sirens, paramore, aa and that kind of stuff.. and this week it was full of shitty advertisements..

Are you kidding? BVB getting 5K's? Now, I'm not some whiny metalhead who's like, 'oh my god they wear make up, their music must be shit', I gave them a real chance at download with minimal expectations and they still didn't manage to even slightly impress me. They sounded god awful, like their sound just didn't flow correctly, you've clearly just gave them that rating based on their 'confrontation' with the crowd, that's not was a performance is about.

Paul Grainger said it correct! How dare Kerrang give BVB 5 K's and Metallica only 4 K's. Were you people even WATCHING the performances? BVB got bottled for goodness sake, they sounded like trash. The singer looks like a skinny white boy who raided his mothers make up bag and bondage box. Metallica on the other hand, kicked some SERIOUS ass. I was completely blown away by their performance, everything was just amazing.

Where was the Ray Toro poster? I don't care how many people are complaining about the MCR posters, I love them. I've got the other three and was waiting for this one! I was disappointed that it wasn't there really.

Following last weeks advents at the download festival 2012 I wish to make a strong complaint about Olly Sykes hanging around the Black Veil Brides signing tent, My question to you Kerrang! is why the hell was he there in the first place when it was already known that he was a trouble maker for BVB!!! I too was one of the ones standing in that queue for nearly 3 hours and when i eventually did manage to go into meet the Brides i found the people on the door to be rather rude to me telling me harshly that you aren't aloud to take or have any personal pictures with any of the band memebers! yet out of the corner of my eye a blond girl had a photo with Andy Biersack ... now correct me if i'm wrong but you can't have one riule for one and another rule for another i was pretty angered at this, not to mention that when i did get to talk to Andy he seemed so frustrated about what had gone on with Olly Sykes that he didn't seem in a talking mood, Also Ashley Purdy wasn't anywhere to be seen! As it happens i was lucky enough to have had a convosation with CC , Jake & Jinxx but what the main issue here is that if OllY Sykes is going to be a nuisanence to BVB then i strongly suggest that in future signings you keep him well out of Bvb's way.

woah! the amount of hate for this issue kinda makes me glad that I missed out on buying it. wow...

Posted by x | June 30, 2012 12:23 PM | Reply to this

Even though people complain about MCR, I still love them. I guess Kerrang! wanted to show bands that are of most interest to other people. Well perhaps, just in my opinion.

I'm pretty sure the people at Kerrang make up the entire You Me At Six fanbase
