Rolling Stone is the magazine that thankfully gave Doctor Of Journalism Hunter S Thompson money for his words & pared them with Ralph Stedman’s exemplary illustrations, creating a lifelong friendship & partnership. They also put ketamine in their water cooler (citation needed) well they must do if Grace & The Potters or whatever the hell they are called are a best new band.

Firstly, they are not a comedy Harry Potter tribute band, which is deeply disappointing. Secondly they sound like an X factor contestant covering a song. Considering it’s somewhat bizarrely produced by Mark Batson, who also produce Hip Hop heavy hitters Dr Dre, Eminem & Jay Z, this is tepid rock at its worse.

Ms. Potter looks like Sienna Millar playing at being a Factory Girl & the band look like the fictional Jason Lee fronted band from Almost Famous. That should be pretty cool.

This single is not cool.

Fuck You Rolling Stone, we used to be friends, but my Mum says we can’t hang out any more because you have terrible taste in music.
