i just thought of Foals.

See, they're a current band and everything

How am I the only one hear who listens to the fucking Bees and thinks they are the best british band right now.

Stop trying to be so hip and give in to the truth!

They fucking recorded at Abbey Road for Christ's sake haha.

If you all don't like the Beatles though that's fine I just won't listen to your opinion on this reply.

mclusky=scottish

if they hadnt been, they would be high on my list of favorites as well.

that is no arguement at all. obviously there are going to be shit bands. MOST bands are shit bands.

scotland's in britain dumbass

Fuckwit.

Queen.

Why is it only ever Americans that think Scotland aren't part of Britrain?

i highly doubt a scottish person would call him/herself british. and when a band is scottish, you call them a "scottish band", the thread read "good british rock bands". has nothing to do with the unkited kingdom as a whole.

That's all true but that doesn't escape the fact that Scottish bands are still British bands.

a bit of desperate dumbass back tracking.

dumbass

I'm sorry but Crumb's post was hilarious ahahahaha

batreleaser's still cool though, just a bit misinformed about Scottish people

While I personally wouldn't label them as "good" or "current", I'm pretty sure Mclusky were from Wales... which also happens to be part of Great Britain.

Canada isn't part of Great Britain though...


It baffles me how often the status of Scotland seems to be confusing for some people...

A true story that relates to this, is a conversation I once overheard:

"So you're from Scotland!?"

"Yes."

"Wow, your English is so good!"

:confused:

I can speak English and Scottish fluently.

you da man, dog

och aye

Who'd've thunk there's tonnes of Bum Gravy clips on youtube!

fail. mclusky were from cardiff, and cardiff is, indeed, in Wales.

The issue of Scottish bands not being appropriate for this thread was already answered on page one. The thread is about British bands, not just English ones.
