So those two are your top five non guitar rock bands?

It's only a central component of their sound that's included on every song.

I'm not attached to Rock as a label only punk

dunno if I could give you a top 5, you could be almost asking my top 5 bands period

Dude - I can name the goddamn bands. It’s not a challenge. It’s just fodder for my playlists.

Elph be like the only music I know is rock and this is why I'm so dismissive of non-guitar-based rock cause its existence would force me to admit that I'm a rockist.

I'm sure in plug.dj you were pretty receptive to my (synth, sans gutiar) Cold Wave plays.

3. Did you know John Peel died?

Yes A.M. changed their sound but that was like 50 years ago, where've you been? A.M. was popular while F.M. was underground. Then F.M. changed their sound and became more mainstream, more restrictive to their selection, then college radio was underground. When College Rock and underground music became more popular they had to change the name cause it couldn't be underground and be mainstream and popular all at the same time, so they called it "Alternative Rock."
