Accusing us of being a gimmick is a bit like accusing Jesus Christ of having ‘a bit of a messiah complex’. In this quote, Millie Mackintosh talks about what people who don’t like the band call the band’s music. The band believes that it is just that, its music. It is not a gimmick or a marketing ploy to get more fans for their brand. It simply is what it is and they believe in it.
