You should really try The Clash and their London Calling album it isGreat
King Jedi
Or buy "The History of the Clash". That's even better.
finti
I like all of the tracks on London Calling and all are not represented on the story, ergo I like London Calling a lot better.
Dont get me wrong I like most Clash stuff, but London Calling is very special album.
LaurenE147
I like a wide variety of music.
1. Dave Matthews Band
2. Matchbox 20
3. Faith Hill
4. Lifehouse
5. Nat King Cole
6. Aerosmith
7. Bon Jovi
8. Aretha Franklin
9. Nirvana
10. Lynard Skynard
11. Queen
and the list goes on
Texas
Dave Matthews- now that's one band that knows how to put on a concert
mechmoggy
I ask, no demand, that anyone who doesn't own the "Complete Stone Roses" album should run directly out and buy it. Class. That and anything by Paul Weller. Again class.

King Jedi
That's my favourite album.

Ratcat
I own non of the above, but on the basis that if I did they would end up being coasters, I doubt there will be any running today.
Guess it's just a matter of different tastes...
sand person no. 10
i've got the best of the stone roses although i prefer oasis and all of the other indie bands who sprung up in the mid 90's, the stone roses were a bit before i got into music, but because of the decline in british music i've had to move across the pond and listen to american bands such as blink 182, sum 41 and other punk like bands, in the decline of british music i also include coldplay and travis, the supposed saviours of british music, its just depressing drivel to me, travis can apparently only sing songs where they repeat the same words over and over again and coldplay are just plain depressing. i'm fed up of listening to bands and artists who just rely on computers and clever producers to manufacture a soubd for them, although i obviously appreciate trend setters such as britney spears, a cultural revolution if ever there was one
ROCK ON!!!
King Jedi
I completley agree.
British guitar music has gone down hill since about 1997.
The Charlatans, Ian Brown and Oasis are the only ones still making great albums.
Ratcat
in YOUR opinion of course...
King Jedi
It's the opinion of most people my age. It's only now I know how lucky I was to grow up in the 90's with so many great bands, because now there is hardly anything.
finti
Great bands of the 90`s???????????hmm well I have the same feelings for the 90`s bands you (King Jedi) have for the decline in british guitar music.
mah
i forgot one:
Super Furry Animals
they are just the best!
Texas
Ummm, the 90's were awesome when it came to music, OK!!! That's when alternative bands roamed the planet and those cheesy 80's band were history! In the 90's we had: The Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, Greenday, Garbage! Need I say more?

King Jedi
Oasis, The Verve, Manic Street Preachers, Black Crowes, Stone Roses, Primal Scream, Radiohead, Pulp, The Charlatans, Prodigy the list goes on and on.
Texas
Finally!!!! someone with some refined musical tastes! Some people on this board are just stuck in the 80's!! *looks at Finti*

*sends Finti Marilyn Manson CD* hmmm, I wonder how many stamps it takes to get to Norway?

Dim
Does anyone else like Tom Waits????
finti
The custom can smell the crap the Marilyn Manson is through it all, doesnt matter how many stamps, it will end in the ....GARBAGE.
All the bands King Jedi and Texas mentioned used some of those cheesy bands of the 80`s as role models. And my musical taste, Tex, is very much more in the 70`s rather than the 80`s.

Texas
*Pictures Finti in tight bellbottoms*...............*tries to get horrible image out of head*
finti
nah you like that image, by the way musical prefrences might differ from what I wear

Texas
Black is my favorite color. I always wear black! When I get my own place, it will be all black, with some oak and metallic highlights!

finti
I thought black was not considered a color neither is white.
Al the colors in the spectra makes up white, at least according to Isaac Newton. And the spectra is ROYGBIV(Red, Orange,Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet.)
Goota get you a Goth home there Tex?
King Jedi
But what did Isaac Newton know?

yerssot
thanx, now I feel special
King Jedi
Is tha toyur name?

Texas
Black is a color

Edna Witch
No I beg to differ! Black is not a colour. Infact by definition, black is the absence of any clour and white is the presence of all three primary colours (of light).
Texas
Black is a color, nan a nan a nan a!
Black is a color, nan a nan a nan a!
Black is a color, nan a nan a nan a!
Oh, so when I go shopping for a black sweater, I'll inform the sales girl to give me a large absence of any color sweater

Edna Witch
Yes why don't you do that!
Texas
HMPH

finti
Learn something today Tex?

Ushgarak
Of course, when it comes to clothing the light spectrum hs nothing to do with it...
finti
Well beside the viking helmets, hats are for hicks from Dallas, horns are what you hicks put on the hood of your cars.
Texas

It's every Texan's duty to have atleast one high quality cowboy hat

I know who I'm running over with my cattle horn car

LaurenE147
Actually white is the absence of color and the combination of all three primary colors of light. Black is the absence of light and the combination of all three primary colors of color.
JediOasis
Without a doubt the best band out there is Oasis. New album comes out early next year

Some other good one's are:
Flickerstick
The Verve and Ashcroft's solo work
U2
The Beatles(of course)
Hurricane #1
Travis
Third Eye Blind
Fuel
Stereophonics
Morning Maker
finti
Well that is your opinion, I for one think Oasis is overrated and boring but thats, maybe just me.
mechmoggy
If all the Oasis albums would have been of the same calibre as the first they'd still be huuuage. The last one was under-rated though.
Did KJ mention Ian Brown? He da man, and his new track...
"...you've got the fear..... F - E - A - R, F - E - A - R..."
A monkey-like chap with musical genius.

JediOasis
How can a band be overrated when the critics do nothing but rip them? Oh well, with the next album and Andy, Gem and Liam writing it will hopefully get the recognition it diserves.
Texas
Finti doesn't like anything that came out after the 70's

finti
The fans make them overrated, I never listen to critics when it comes to music or movies.
Texas
I only listen to a couple of critics whose tastes closely resemble my own. P.S. Ebert is an idiot

King Jedi
I never listen to any critic either. They are pointless.
Oasis are very underrated. They get nothing but greif from the music press. Unless there sales are down and the you can be sure they'll have them on the front cover.
Ian Brown is a genius. I just saw him on T.V wearing a pink jumper and dancing on one leg!

Texas
:

uts on pink jumper and dances on one leg:: Now I'm a genius too

finti
Genius in Texas maybe, in Norway... a retard

Texas
Only a retard would leave Texas for Norway

Edna Witch
Only a retard would be in Texas to begin with!

You missed the plane Tex?

Ushgarak
Hang on, Edna, I thought some of your family lived out there?
Texas
Only the smart ones Ush. The rest stayed!

Ushgarak
She DOES seem to have walked into that one. Unless she doesn't like them.
Texas
You actually provided the opportunity for my fabulous punch line. She came off strong today, being rude to me in all her replies with out any provocation what so ever. ::In Sidious' voice::This is an unusual move for her!
Ushgarak
I rather think, Tex, that getting into Edna's good books is something that lies a long, long way off... and don't say that we didn;t warn you...
Texas
I like being in her bad book, it makes me feel soooo naughty!!!

Ushgarak
I DO see what you mean...
Texas
Ush you should get into her bad book too! Maybe she'll spank you around the house

Ushgarak
That's not how it really works.
Texas
Ohhhh, so I see you've tried before

Ushgarak
I'll certainly be in her bad books if I keep talking...
Edna Witch
Tex isn't in my bad books! I'm just playing with him. Kind of like RC and I used to do but then I took it too seriously and we had a big agument. But I think that is all forgotten now. I hope!

finti
I wonder if I am going to get me a bad book

Edna Witch
I thought you already had one. But it only has one page in it with Texas scrawled across it in HUGEred letters. Or is that blood? Oh dear!

Ratcat
What's forgotten?
Tex, I think if Edna spanked Ush it might possible just kill him. Not a good idea.....
finti
No Tex would not be in my bad book, book for picking at though...yes.

Texas
I'm just flattered at all this attention I'm getting!

yerssot
Now let's get him out of the spotlights
finti
and into the limelight.....

ToMacco
I don't think anyone cares anymore, because the music posts stopped about three pages ago. But here's my music tastes.
Pearl Jam
Bob Dylan
The Rolling Stones
The Beatles
Bob Marley
Dave Matthews Band
Weezer
John Williams
James Horner
The Greatful Dead
Phish
Creedence Clearwater Rivival
The Eagles
Neil Young
The Police
These groups have great albums, that you can listen to the whole thing. I of course like a lot of other groups, but I consider them to be "One hit wonders" even though they have more than one hit
DJ Velocity
OK. I know you are all going to rip the p*** out of me, but here is mine:
Snoop Dogg (I've always liked him. I'm not a post-Dre 2001er)
213 (Snoop, Nate, Warren G: Funky as you like)
Guns N Roses (Greatest rock band of all time (no arguments)
Alice Cooper
Bone Thugs ~N~ Harmony
Cypress Hill
Bon Jovi
Billy Joel (Piano God)
Level 42 (Mint Live Band)
I'm starting to like Kid Rock although I hate all of that hip-hop/rock crossover tripe i.e. Limp Bizkit.
Question: What is Alien Ant Farm's cover of Smooth Criminal about? They killed it
I notice there is a lot of rockers here, so, who is your favourite lead guitarist? Mine is Slash from GnRs
finti
Richie Blackmore from Deep Purple and R A I N B O W
JediOasis
Johnny Marr of The Smiths, Noel Gallagher of course, and The Edge
Texas
That's easy, Billy Corgan
ToMacco
Didn't the Smashing Pumpkins break up?
sand person no. 10
Tomacco, good choice, do you like the weezer song "crab" off their new album, it rocks man. my favorite guitaist is Hendrix by a mile. i go quite proud when i learnt to play 4 bars of one of his songs.
Texas
It was the worst news I ever received, I didn't eat for 4 days
but Billy Corgan has formed a new secret band whoose name is yet to be revealed

King Jedi
John Squire of The Stone Roses is my favourite lead guitarist.
finti
I think they are called Better than my last band, hopefully

Texas
.........you bastard

Texas
Like my new avatar???? Isn't it Smashing?

finti
Looks like the grim reaper

Texas
It's Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins, and yet to be revealed secret band

King Jedi
We know.

Is it true that he's been writing songs with Noel Gallagher?
Texas
yes, and just about everyone else lately

King Jedi
Cool!

Texas
I know
He needs to write a song for me, then I can perform it for you all

JediOasis
I heard that too, but I think its just a rumor. But it has been confirmed that Liam Gallagher has written a song for the new Hole record and that he may begin work on a solo record.
Texas
Courtney Love is so pathetic!

finti
And Billy Corgan is not

jedi212guy
I liked the Smashing Pumpkins about 5 years ago. Now I'm more into Bob Dylan.

finti
oh yes they are just right up the ally from each other

I rather spend an evning with Cortney Love than Billy "Bob" Corgan

jedi212guy
Don't make me give you a thrashing, finti...

finti
A yank`s gonna trash a Viking, yeah that be the day.
Texas
Oh yes. I know all about you 'I liked the Smashing Pumpkins 5 years ago' people!
Courtney Love's a ****. She's good friends with Billy, but he shouldn't hang around with her kind of trash

jedi212guy
That's right! I'm a massive 60 kg yank, and I'll take you on any day of the week. (j/k)

finti
60 kg? you need extra weight in your shoes when the wind blows
sure you got the weight right.
jedi212guy
It's right. I was just showing my weakness. 132 pounds divided by 2.2 kilograms equals 60 kg. (I'm a math major. Woo-hoo!)
Texas
Math major??? Wow! I have great respect for Math majors! You guys can get a job like anywhere!

finti
puts up odds for an easy fight

ToMacco
Jedi212guy
You like Bobby D? Man, Bob Dylan is the King! One of my buddies at college turned me onto him. Now I can't get enough of him! I've seen him in concert twice, and I will again in about two weeks.
Do you have his new CD "Love and Theft?" I was looking forward to its release date, September 11th. Looks like the day will be remembered for other reasons.
So J212G, are you really into Bob, or are you kidding? I can't imagine you would be kidding. Most people don't consider Bob to be a fan favorite, but anyone who listens to his music LOVES him!
Anyone who is interested in expanding their music culture, I suggest the following Dylan CD's: "Blonde on Blonde," ""Blood on the Tracks," "Time out of Mind," or if you wanna go for it all, just get "The Essential Bob Dylan."
I love Bob Dylan, man.

King Jedi
I think we can tell.

ToMacco
Bob Dylan is my brother.
Texas
I am proud to announce that Bjork, whom RC and I both love

, has become the first pop artist in history to be invited to play at the prestigious Royal Opera House

Also her new video for Pagan Poetry is being deamed the most disturbing and controversial music video ever! Damn I cant wait for that one to debut
Also I bought the new Garbage CD, Beautiful Garbage, and it really kicks ass major ass

That Shirley Manson is one fine Scottish chick

ToMacco
sweet

King Jedi
Shirley Manson still lives here which is great since most famous people from here leave for London or America.
Her new haircut is a bit weird.

mah
the first garbage-album was innovative and great, but i was a bit dissapointed with the second, and i do not like their last album. nothing new, almost like they have no new ideas to put in their music.
Texas
You must of lost your mind and gone crazy! The second Album, Garbage 2.0 kicked major ass!! Nothing new with their new album? My friend it's all new! Garbage has never sounded like this. Theres a lot of pop and subdued songs along with the heavy rock. Shirley's voice never sounded this good. Wow, it's clear to see we definitely have differing opinions about Garbage.
ToMacco
mah, so you're saying the first album was good, then the rest was just 'garbage'?

Texas
It's beautiful garbage

ToMacco
I like "No Doubt" simply because Gwen Stefonie is hot.
Texas
Oh Yeah, she's really hot! No one knows the names of the other members of the band, they only care about that babe Gwen

Texas
I just downloaded Bjorks new video Pagan Poetry! WOW! Talk about indecent! The cum is back big time! Heres a link to her new video, enter at your own discretion

: http://www.bjork.com/snipsbits/video/paganpoetry/
King Jedi
This might be the last album Garbage make.

mah
happy days are here again

(sorry to all of you who still like garbage)
finti
their name says all

Texas
Where did you hear that? That's horrible news!
Maybe Shirley wants to get away from Butch and his dictator ways and try something different

finti
So then they end in the dustbin

finti
I find Shirley kind of very unattractive, just dont like her looks at all
Texas
You need glasses my friend.
She's a fox
gots that sexy alien looking thing going on!

finti
It is all about taste and to me she is repulsive.
Faith Hill is attractive

Texas
Faith Hill is a fox too, but Shirley has that bad girl thing going on

Bjork's another fox

finti
Bjork a fox? Talking about needing glasses. She is straight out ugly
finti
she looks like a stray bloodhound
Texas
Now your just being mean!
Pray that your viking ship never hits an iceberg and you wash up on the beach in Iceland

finti
Iceland are more or less Norwegian heritage, and my neighbour is from Iceland. He says she aint to populare there she is so stuck up.
Texas
She's not stuck up

, she's just a diva!

.....
...........but yeah, they're not too happy about her over there, read an entire Newsweek article about that. Said Iceland wasn't good enough for her so she went to London, then apparently London wasn't good enough for her so now she's in New York. Next stop:Couriscant

. She's so kewl

King Jedi
Shirley Manson says that she wants to have kids soon and when she does she'll quit the music bis. Or maybe she just meant touring? I don't know.
Bjork is ugly. And annoying.
finti
Rosmarys Baby all over again

ToMacco
Bjork fell off the ugly tree and hit every branch on her way down. She's talanted, but it's good that she's on radio instead of TV.

Texas
Bjork is a genius in every sense of the word!!

She's also one of the most beautiful women in the world

!! Your probably all crazy Bjork stalkers anyways! It's best that you keep away from my Bjork!

ToMacco
Yeah looks are only skin deep. Besides all women are beautiful.
Except Bjork. She is one ugly ho!

j/k Tex
