I used to read it around the first arctic monkeys came out till 3 years ago or something, but what I read later of it the hypes just got way shittier. And I mabye be the only person on earth to like the long blondes...

You obviously haven't ever met a Richey-era Manics fan. Or been tempted to stab a Zappa fan.

Im a RicheyEraManicsFan (TM), and Glice is correct. I queued up to meet the manics when i was 17 at this HMV instore thing... the ones my age were nice but the older ones cast this glare over the whole queue, like they were ashamed of the entire concept of a queue for the Manics, cos Richey would never have queued, he would have SMASHED THE QUEUE or just walked away with some level of dignity. Of course they did neither, and just huffed when i got let in front of them in the queue by the bouncers.

I incidentally know 1 black person who likes Hendrix - Im writing to Richard Littlejohn to use this as evidence to back up my point (whatever it is). And its political correctness gone mad, and *dies*

Well they always seemed to be pushed away for far shittier bands, which is a shame. Mine NME band's remains things like test icles and bloc party, I just love jumpy bassline I gues wen I was 15
