CHVRCHES React To Linkin Park 'Disney Music' Comment
. But in an interview with joiz at France's OpenAir St. Gallen festival, the band caught up and finally fired back at Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda, who named CHVRCHES along with HAIM and Vampire Weekend as examples of music that "sounds like Disney commercial music" in an interview with Noisey� from April. The rising indie outfit, known for their earworm single "The Mother We Share," are hardly seasoned pros at trading public shots, and begin the conversation mildly and with restraint. "I'm a massive Linkin Park fan," Martin Doherty says before snickering at his own sarcasm. But then the gloves come off, with frontwoman Lauren Mayberry cleverly noting "it's not a coincidence that his band has a record to sell, and he mentioned several bands that people are writing about." Later in the interview, Iain Cook chimes in by noting that it is "a pointless dig," questioning what Linkin Park have to gain by the knock, which Doherty chuckles at, thinking Cook actually said "pointless dick."
