It's actually quite fascinating reading people's lists. I never realised we had so many Nickleback fans here. A genuine eye-opener!

I hope you're kiddin' about Nickelback. Aren't you ?

...hahahaha.

Fortunately, yes.

i'll give this a shot.

Phewww !!!!
I feel better.

It's all the Jesus Jones votes that're starting to worry me.:eek:

haha

It's not me, I've never listened to that shit, I just know it's a sort of electro-techno-crap.

Which makes the inclusion of EMF on your list all the more baffling!

Liar !!!!

E - Ecstasy
M - Motherf****r motherf****r
F - From Us to You
E-M-F

They were quite cool, really.

I loved the way their keyboardist acted as rock and roll as possible whenever they were on TotP. There really is something rather hilarious about watching a man trying to be Pete Townsend while playing a Korg M1.

They made a really good LP. In all probability, that is precisely one really good LP more than I will ever make.

What a sobering thought, to recognise that EMF will have contributed more to the cultural landscape than most of us could even dream of. Even more depressing when one applies the same logic to a band like Ocean Colour Scene.

Good lord, I just made myself shudder!

Done. I know that two of my choices will get votes from others, and one of them will definitely be in the top ten.

w00t. done.

hahahaha, jesus jones.

james the band from the 90's is coming to mexico and people are going "no wai!!! it's awesome!!! best band ever!!" i wonder if they would be as hyped about, say, soul II soul or simply red as they are for james.

A true story this: I used to play through a big fuck off bass cabinet in the 90s that was stolen from James (not by me, I hasten to add). It even had their name stencilled on the side. I actually loaned it to Lou Barlow during one of Sebadoh's UK tours, which sort of makes him an accessory to the crime too. Justice was eventually done I suppose when it caught fire during a rehearsal. Spooky but true.

looks like my inclusion of maudlin of the well and kayo dot won't be in the final 10

damn!
