Reverend And The Makers frontman Jon McClure has launched a stinging attack against Razlorlight’s Johnny Borrell – comparing Borrell’s self confidence to Adolf Hitler.
Speaking ahead of the release of the band’s debut album, ‘The State Of Things,’ Mclure also called the Razorlight star a “bell end.”
"He's a bell end, he doesn't mean anything he says," explained McClure in an interview with the Guardian.
The frontman then went on to add: "On one level I respect his self-confidence, in the way you might begrudgingly respect Hitler for building the autobahns. If it were matched up with a genuine talent and intelligence then fair enough, but he hasn't got either. He's just got a big gob."

- Ha ha, I couldn’t have put it better myself Jon. Legend!

- Who on earth are Reverend and the Makers?

- let your music do the talking

- They’re all twats - Hitler, Borrell and McClure.

- true say Spike. but from what i can remember Hitler was an amazing public orator, Borrell puts on a good performance and Mcclure was boring at Glastonbury. Can your music do the talking McClure or do we now have to be burdened with another ****ing mouthpiece spouting crap when not on stage?
