Music Indie Rock Feuds: Meg White vs. Bat For Lashes
Posted by Mike Conklin on Mon, Jul 6, 2009 at 11:03 AM
Last week the New York Times spent "A Night Out With" Natasha Kahn of Bat For Lashes. It was, it turns out, an incredibly boring night. They went to a costume store, then to a restaurant—forgettable in every way and certainly not worth reporting on in the world's largest and most influential newspaper. Except for this one part, which I'm hoping will illicit a response and be the beginning of a long, messy feud.
As female musicians, they have had to endure some stereotypes. Ms. Jones [drummer] gets compared to Meg White “constantly,” she said, her eyes closed in annoyance, adding, “Meg White is the worst drummer I’ve ever seen.”
Did you hear that, Meg White? It's a slow news day after a long weekend, and the drummer from Bat for Lashes thinks you are the worst drummer she's ever seen. Please respond. Please. I'm so bored.

Natasha Kahn is not even remotely as talented as Meg White, who is most likely too cool to feud back.
I never understood the hype about Bat For Lashes anyway. Boring NYT article, boring band, now reaching "offensively boring" in my mind.
