Your favorite singers and bands

The Beatles
Pink Floyd
The Pixies
Frank Zappa
Paul Oakenfold
Jeff Wayne

I also liked King Crimson, but only the songs they did before they had that bloody new wave revalation and turned into pansies. If you've seen This Is Spinal Tap you'll know the kind of thing I mean.

Spyro Gyra is seriously the name of a band? I'll have to check them out simply for the awwsomeness of their name.

Guns N' Roses are definately my favourite band , shame that they haven't released anything new since 1999 (methinks anyway). Chinese Democracy (their next album) will hopefully be released some time during my life-span (though my expectations of its success aren't too great). Can't say I like Velvet Revolver much though- which is a shame because Slash was the heart and soul of Guns N' Roses.

Anyway, honourable mention also goes to:
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Beastie Boys
The Zutons
Green Day

And a lot of other stuff- I'm not picky when it comes to music.

I spent Sunday and Monday nights recording all my Manic Street Preachers albums onto my X-Box. Then I spent two-and-a-half hours last night naming them all. Well, except for their latest album, I couldn't find the case so there's ten or twelve X's at the bottom of the playlist. My thumbs still ache, but it was worth it.

I wasn't really a big fan of Queen until a few months ago - I always thought they were great up to then, but, y'know, same way I think Mozart is great. Then I got their Greatest Hits and have barely stopped playing it. It's also on the 'Box. I kinda prefer Under Pressure, Breakthru and Radio Ga-Ga over Raphsody, though. That'd be about number... six.

Kylie. No really, I like a lot of her songs.

There's an Irish band called JJ72 that I really like, they've only put out two albums and the second one was at least three years ago, but hopefully they're still around.

Gorillaz are great. Their new one is fabtacular.

There's a new one and i didn't even know about it?

Yeah, the video's got windmills in it but I can't remember the name of the song. It's good, though.

Dache · Post by **Dache** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 12:41 pm

Feel Good Inc. The album's called Demon Days.

... And it's completely and totally boring apart from Feel Good Inc.

Post by **Esrever** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 1:13 pm

Have you got the rest of the album, Pop?

I'm curious to hear it, but I'm weary of a Gorillaz album without Dan the Automator.

Post by **Popcorn** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 1:47 pm

I have it all minus one track.

I, too, am curious. However, I am not going to subtly point towards my location as an explanation for my curiousity.

By saying a variety of words that insult the music they produce. Or was that a rehtorical question?

Baba O'Reily · Post by **Baba O'Reily** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 2:18 pm

I think Appetite For Destruction was far superior to Contraband, but I think it's good that Slash is branching out.

Ooh, dunno. Harsh. El Manana is a good track, too.

... actually, that might be it.

What about Dirty Harry? Or is that not on there?

Post by **Segaholic2** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 3:38 pm

Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed with the new album.

Koosh Koosh! · Post by **Koosh Koosh!** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 3:41 pm

I quite like it. It is quite bland though. Then again, so was there first album, aside from the singles.

Fire From The Monkey's Head is good though. Very much like "The Point".

Post by **Segaholic2** » Thu Apr 14, 2005 4:37 pm

The first album had more songs that I liked. So far, no single track on the new album has jumped out at me at all. I guess I'll listen to them individually, but I don't think there's anything on this disc up to par with the last album.
