Thanks a lot for that. I've noticed that I had mispelled its name and did the due editing. I have to say that I've caught one of Pavement's last performances in London and they were awesome, regardless of Malkmus' voice and general attire.

If only the replacements kept bob stinson in the band maybe they could have had a crossover hit or at least released some better albums, their was definite potential there.Without him they went bad.

Both names are correct, this song is called Infinite spark on my album.

I spelt it as 'Sparkle', intially.

Not a band, but even though I appreciate his music, Tom Waits should go instrumental. His voice is too theatrical or the wrong side of grotesque, for my liking.

If only the Arcade Fire hadnt started listening to Bruce Springsteen

Another band: Talking Heads. Sometimes interesting musicians, but the prospect of hearing Byrne's voice kept me away from their records more than attracted me to them. He sounds like someone who's about to shit in their pants and is running nervously to the toilet.

The Pixies, same problem. Franck Black should change his voice.

...frank black sounds different on pretty much every pixies song.

i know what you mean, but dang... i've never heard anyone complain about his voice before!

If only Deerhoof's lyrics weren't so cutesy asian kitch with the lyrics. Too many beep beep's and whatever.

I can honestly not think of a single band I'd change aspects about. I would probably change mixing decisions on records, but yeah...

okay, on second thought, Placebo have some cool guitar riffs but the worst lyrics I've ever heard. i'd still probably never listen to them, but at least I could take them a little more seriously if they didn't have lyrics like "HER LITTLE SISTER HAD A BLISTER WHERE I KISSED HER ON HER THIGH.. CAREENIN!"

I never listened to the whole Pixies discography, but I maintain I don't like Black's voice. It's not the kind of voice I like, it doesn't mean he 's not in tune, but I find his tone unpleasant. Compared to... Spiral Stairs, for example, who 's not forever in tune, I prefer Spiral 'cause his voice is quite good for me, more "musical". It's just my opinion. I know you don't care.

Placebo, the band I used to listen to when I was 15-16... From the 3rd album, the tunes became repetitive and crapy...
and I'm not talking about Molko's voice !!:D

nah, i care, i find it interesting.

Les Savy Fav : the singer should take few singing lessons...

hahaha

okay yeah i agree with that too.

though i think the only thing that annoys me is the production of the records because his voice is mixed so loud and dry..

Oh, thanks.

It must be hard to record and mix this rough voice.

Pussy Galore: from the point that Jon Spencer decided he was living in a Jim Jarmusch film

Ignore my threads then.
