Chvrches singer: Why I replied to negative album review

Chvrches singer Lauren Mayberry has spoken out on her online response to a negative review that the band received for their third album.

Speaking to Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 5 live’s Nihal Arthanayake, the singer and songwriter said the review by the critic was ‘condescending’ and belittled the band's ‘social and political’ views. Chvrches band members Iain Cook and Martin Doherty added people had a ‘right to reply’ to ‘personal’ criticism.
