whats your preference and why?

British, simply because I'm British probably. I see the bands more often and I can relate to them a lot easier. Plus we've put out some of the finest bands ever to grace rock music.

And i think rock music in general has slowely went to sleep with the exceptions of a few bands still renovating the music.

What do you think about these new "garage" bands that have gotten popular recently? Jet, White Stripes, The Strokes, etc.
Sounds to me they are stealing a few pages from old Rolling Stones.

at least they're bringing back a bit of the old rock spirit i think, bands like Blink 182 and the Darkness are just imitating bands such as led zep and the clash, but the strokes for example bring their own style to the genre.

I have no preference - both are equal to me.

Basing a genre on it's nationality is pretty asenine.

Just as asenine as the preceeding statement.
