I heard you have a compilation of every good song ever done by anybody. Every great song by the Beach Boys. All the underground hits. All the Modern Lovers tracks. I heard you have a vinyl of every Niagra record on German import. I heard that you have a white label of every seminal Detroit techno hit - 1985, '86, '87. I heard that you have a CD compilation of every good '60s cut and another box set from the '70s.

I hear you're buying a synthesizer and an arpeggiator and are throwing your computer out the window because you want to make something real. You want to make a Yaz record.

I hear that you and your band have sold your guitars and bought turntables.
I hear that you and your band have sold your turntables and bought guitars.

I hear everybody that you know is more relevant than everybody that I know.

dave spoon,

isn't that wilko's mate?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

The White Stripes always left me cold

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I only listen to minimal techno and dubstep nowadays.

Henrik Schwarz is a bad boy.

And for those of us whose first language is English

 

[coventrygull]

How cool are the Enemy. Even tho they give it large on the Cov thing I think they are a great band. I also like Duffy one of the best singers I have heard in years and she is certainly cool

 

[Braders]

But surely we have all manner of pretentious (sorry informed) magazines available to tell us who we should like?

So, let me put up some 'new' bands that I like, to see if I really am as out of touch as I beleive I am:

Kaiser Chiefs
Muse
Editors
The Kooks
Pendulum
Pigeon Detectives
Mika
Scouting for Girls
Kasabian

not overlly keen on Mika but the rest aren't too shabby

Yes despite being Welsh she is irritatingly good.

 

[DJ Leon]

I remember when Coldplay were a so called SMALL band and I thought they were RUBBISH back then.

Richie - where's your list? So far you've only used a thread about bands we should like to go on about bands we shouldn't.

You've set yourself out as a bit of an arbiter of good taste - so let's have your picks!

It's always a matter of taste, except in this case.
She is mundane, and singing a remake of a Chester Burnette (aka Howlin Wolf) tune.
And I doubt the ORIGINAL has even been credited - and like Led Zep she has just ripped off the writer.
Mika is, however, talented and original.
