But sentimental sh*t which is why I listen to it once in a while.

So you actually admit to listening to a lot of sh*t music.

Interesting. :laughing:

How would I know it`s sh*t if I don`t listen to it.

Besides ,all the sh*t bands that clogged up Britpop take nothing away from the good ones

I couldn't disagree with these statements more fiercely.

1. MCR has nothing to do with the acclaim that Night at the Opera has found.

2. I don't care if we call it electroclash, tags don't make thing sgae poorly, bad music does.

1. I think that the NME have only included in this list for those reasons because that's the sort of magazine the NME is. Night At The Opera's acclaim before this is different.

2. I think if a band are tagged under a particular movement then it is bound to age badly, seeing as it is seen as a stereoypical example of a certain time in popular music. Pulp however, has aged much better than Blur or Oasis.

3. 'Revolver' - The Beatles
4. 'OK Computer' - Radiohead
5. '(What's The Story) Morning Glory?' - Oasis
6. 'Nevermind' - Nirvana
7. 'The Stone Roses' - The Stone Roses
8. 'Dark Side Of The Moon' - Pink Floyd
9. 'The Queen Is Dead' - The Smiths
10. 'The Bends' - Radiohead
11. 'The Joshua Tree' - U2
12. 'London Calling' - The Clash
13. 'The Beatles (The White Album)' - The Beatles
14. 'Abbey Road' - The Beatles
15. 'Up The Bracket' - The Libertines
16. 'Never Mind The Bollocks Here's The Sex Pistols' - Sex Pistols
17. 'Four Symbols (Led Zeppelin IV)' - Led Zeppelin
18. 'The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars' - David Bowie
19. 'A Night At The Opera' - Queen
20. 'Is This It' - The Strokes

This list is garbage.
The Strokes making any list of this sort is an atrocity.
Oasis made the list twice.
this is horrible.
If Nirvana can make the list The Foo Fighters should've been on there as well.

that's just my take on it

Yeah, why the foo fighters? They're enjoyable but really they're just your typical MTV rock band.

I don't associate them with MTV. I'd rather think of it as MTV getting better taste in music.
But MTV would probably play Nirvana if Kurt were still alive.

Yeah, but I didn't mean MTV rock band as in they're played on MTV. I meant typical and meant for the mainstream. You can call it radio rock if you want.

Well if you look at it that way then you're saying that The Foo Fighters are a mainstream band which they kinda are.
but I've neevr heard of MTV playing songs from their early albums.
The one song I know they played often was Low when it first came.

I guess that means that the foo fighters were able to broaden their audience.

Kurt and co. merely made a movement mainstream, much like the strokes did with the garage rock scene, and i guarantee if casablancas popped his cloggs everybody would be ho-ha'ing over the greatness of a band, like nirvana, who made one very good album and 2 average at best.

The first paragraph has partial truth to it, everything else is pure bullsh*t, Nevermind and In Utero were BOTH very good albums, as was the unplugged album.

Nirvana were already pretty much the most popular band in the world when Cobain died, with Pearl Jam still very popular today, so I'm sure Nirvana would be as well, even if not as much as they were before Cobain died.

No sh*t, whats your goddamn point?... That having influences is bad?

And Raine, The Foo Fighters barely even had an impact, you can argue for quality, but as far as I'm concerned in overall greatness, Nevermind is a top 50 album.

But Colour and the Shape is probably in the top 1000 I'm sure.
