The Daily Mail and White Lung!

For those who may not know, White Lung is a Canadian punk rock band from Vancouver, British Columbia, formed in 2009. The band consists of Mish Barber-Way (vocals), Kenneth William (guitar), and Anne-Marie Vassiliou (drums).

In 2014, the Daily Mail, a British tabloid newspaper, published an article titled "The 10 most annoying bands of the year" and White Lung was featured at number 6. The article was written by music critic and journalist, David Smyth, who described the band's music as "a cacophony of noise" and their lyrics as "incomprehensible".

The article sparked a heated debate among music fans and critics, with many defending White Lung's music and artistry. The band's lead vocalist, Mish Barber-Way, responded to the article on social media, saying that the criticism was "sexist" and "elitist".

Despite the controversy, White Lung has continued to gain popularity and critical acclaim, releasing several successful albums and EPs, and touring extensively around the world. Their music is known for its raw energy, catchy hooks, and thought-provoking lyrics, which often explore themes of feminism, politics, and personal relationships.

So, while the Daily Mail may have tried to dismiss White Lung as "annoying", the band has clearly won over many fans and critics with their unique sound and style.
