who were your favorite bands of each of the last 5 years?
 

after looking at the other thread, got to thinking

2002: SY, Erase Errata, Mary Timony, Nirvana
2003: Les Georges Leningrad, Erase Errata, SY, Cat Power
2004: Les Georges Leningrad, SY, Sleater-Kinney, Casual Dots
2005: Sleater-Kinney, Magik Markers, Yoko Ono, Devo, Shonen Knife, SY
2006: Erase Errata, Sleater-Kinney, Les Georges Leningrad, SY, Boris

i think i see a pattern

the pattern being, you love bitches in bands.

Rather boring, I know, but:

2002 - SY / Nick Cave / Neubauten
2003 - SY / Nick Cave / Neubauten
2004 - SY / Nick Cave / Neubauten
2005 - SY / Nick Cave / Neubauten
2006 - SY / Nick Cave / Neubauten

Well, I've been in my late thirties from 2002 onwards, so I figure I have every right to be set in my ways. You can't teach an old dog new tricks, and all that. :p

I know where you're coming from, Nefeli. My interest in music generally has been rejuvenated recently by the "post-metal" scene, which has led me to explore all sorts of unexpected genres, many of them totally unconnected with "post-metal".

2002: Sonic Youth, Stooges, Flaming Lips
2003: Sonic Youth, Ween, mewithoutYou
2004: Norma Jean, mewithoutYou, Sonic Youth
2005: Xiu Xiu, Yellow Swans, Elliott Smith
2006: Xiu Xiu, Parenthetical Girls, mewithoutYou

2002: Eminem, Good Charlotte, etc...
2003: Pavement
2004: Sonic Youth, Pavement, Bright Eyes, Death Cab
2005: Sonic Youth, Ugly Casanova, Silver Jews
2006: Sonic Youth, Dr.Dre, Gang Gang Dance, Khanate, SunnO))), Boris

01 take that
02 boyzone
03 busted
04 pussycat dolls
05 prurient

;-)

seriously

01 sy / gsybe
02 sy / afx
03 sy / whatever
04 sy / deerhoof
05 sy/ lightning bolt
06 sy and whatever again

2002 - Sonic Youth, Hole, Nirvana, Pixies
2003 - Sonic Youth, Breeders, Lemonheads
2004 - Sonic Youth, bikini kill, Veruca Salt
2005 - Sonic Youth, Pavement, Lemonheads, Elliott Smith
2006 - Elliott Smith, Flaming Lips, Sonic Youth, Cat Power

First of all, Boyzone are shit. Second of all, Pussycat Dolls weren't even around in '04. Fucking poseurs like you make me sick. Were you there for Take That at Wembley '95? I was totally there. I am clearly so much more 1337 than you.

2002: T. Rex
2003: The Velvet Underground
2004: Sonic Youth
2005: I have no idea. Probably Nick Cave.
2006: More Nick Cave, Birthday Party, whatever.

2002: Atari Teenage Riot, Skinny Puppy
2003: Smashing Pumpkins, Skinny Puppy
2004: Liz Phair, Sonic Youth, Smashing Pumpkins, 7 year bitch, babes, Skinny Puppy, Hole, Mother Love Bone
2005: Sonic Youth, Smashing Pumpkins, Skinny Puppy, Hole, Mother Love Bone
006: Sonic Youth, Ani Difranco, Skinny Puppy, ec8or, Hole, Mother Love Bone

This is pretty hard. I have at least 10 favorite bands every year, and I'm obviously forgetting something

This man likes ATR. He is better than all of you, times a million.

*Edit: Loses several thousand points for liking Ani 'shit' DiFranco though.

Overhang Party and High Rise have pretty much ruled since the mid 90s.

sigh, I dunno

this topic is seemingly retarded in too many ways.

To me ATR suck and always have... digital hardcore was one of the least significant types of music in the last 10-15 years.

though i'd take Ani Difranco any day over Courtney Love's Hole, i mean that in a couple of ways too.

In the last 5 years I can only think of 1 to 3 significant rock type bands that have kicked my ass, alot of the other music i listen to has been non-rock related

And when I say "The Velvet Underground," I probably mean Johnny Thunders.

Age 12, probably Led Zeppelin or something
Age 13, Nirvana
Age 14, Nirvana
Age 15, Leftover Crack
Age 16, GBH

2002 - Garbage
2003 - Sonic Youth
2004 - Sonic Youth
2005 - Sonic Youth
2006 - Sonic Youth / Yo La Tengo
