Maxim Apologizes


Maxim magazine issued an apology to their readers for the mistake that they made after their music critic gave the Black Crowes? new album ?War Paint? a less than stellar review despite the fact that the reviewer had yet to listen to the album. This rightfully peeved the band. Maxim has since posted an apology saying ?It is Maxim?s editorial policy to assign star ratings only to those albums that have been heard in their entirety. Unfortunately, that policy was not followed in the March 2008 issue of our magazine and we apologize to our readers.? What ? no apology to the Crowes?

The Black Crowes just turned their evil eyes at Maxim magazine. The publication gave the band?s new album ?Warpaint? a scathing review in the March issue. While some may look at it as criticism, when the reviewer hasn?t even listened to the album, then that?s just being plain derogatory. Although no advance CDs have been made available, the magazine lists the album as having two and a half stars out of five and says that ?it [the album] hasn’t left Chris Robinson and the gang much room for growth.? Ouch.

The AP is reporting that the band?s manager Pete Angelus said that Maxim explained the review as an educated guess. Right. How would they make a guess if they have absolutely nothing to base it on?
