And prog scene.

Also i think there are a lot of good britpop bands as of late.

thats the whole philosophy of prog bands- innovation. that goes without saying.
yeah to me the brit-pop scene is starting to flourish again, went through a huge slump in the late 90s early 00's.

I beg the differ, there are plenty of bands today that are different from others, like Death From Above 1979, The White Stripes, and The Features (though they sound oddly familiar)

(With the exception of a few bands: SOAD, Vines...etc.)

no

^ idk he seems to try to act a little like Kurt Cobain w/ the guitar smashing. why, why smash a perfectly working instrument, oh i know because you are rich!

When The Who used to smash their instruments after a gig, they'd demolish £400 worth of stuff, and then get paid £250 for the show.

Rock n ****ing roll.

Music isn't dead, it's just lacking the personality that will combine enough talent and passion to excite the typically sceptical "indie" music snob with the marketability (looks) to excite the man in the grey suit that writes the big cheques. There's plenty of great music out there, it's just not being played by anyone conventionally pretty enough for it to explode again. Yet.
