I BELIEVE IT'S KNOWN AS BEGGING FOR ATTENTION

There are correct ways of going about seeking publicity, and there are, well, incorrect ways.

Posting something like this on Popbitch is, we'd suggest, incorrect:

Attention
Join our campaign against NME's decision to ignore sensational Essex rock band Freud by leaving messages of support on our site at [web address cut to save them further shame]

What we love best about this is the suggestion that NME might be actively ignoring them, rather than just filtering them out as they're not very good. We picture Conor McNicholas instituting bag checks as people arrive at Kings Reach Tower - "have you got a Freud demo in there? Did you not see the memo?"
