I think I said "Who?" to myself about 40 times while reading that...

what do i think...its in the wrong order...that what i think

no "the almighty"...shame...i liked them

primal scream should be higher and average white band should be WAY higher

snow patrol are irish...although they formed in scotland

biffy clyro should be higher

dogs die in hot cars should be higher

lulu should be shot

Wait, there are actually 50 good bands from Scotland?

lol j/k

Didn't even know there were fifty. Pretty abysmal though.

Idlewild, Vaselines, Eurythmics, Aereogramme, Cocteau Twins are the exceptions.

I like those.

wow, scotland hasn't made very many good bands, huh?

Actually for a country its size and population it's produced some pretty amazing bands. I've got time for all the bands on that list except Travis, Wet Wet Wet, Simple Minds, Deacon Blue and Texas. Oh, and Lulu.

Also missed Boards of Canada.

And the Exploited. The greatest Scottish band of all time.

i dont like a single band on that list 😬
