    Bon jovi
    Blind melon
    Led zepplin

    Feel like adding Athlete, Alfie and Royksopp but 2 of them have only released one album and the other I have limited experience with. Jimi should really be there too.

    I'm suprised nobody's mentioned Nirvana yet. Thought the whole planet loved those...

    the prodigy were my fave from years ago. Well, they did actually bring dance music to rockers with 'their law' and 'poison'. It's a pity fat of the land was such a disappointment!! (it was good, but no where near the other two albums).

    But, personally I thought music for a jilted generation was terrific!!!

    Pixies also were pretty good for their time. When you tell people that mr doolittle came out in the eighties, their like "WHAT?!?!?".

    Nirvana of course would be in there, if only for the MTV unplugged album. Anyone read, the diary of Kurt? Some fecked up sh*t in there.

    RHCP (although, I wasn't too crazy over 'blood sugar sex magic')

    Coldplay at the moment for rush of blood to the head

    REM, if only for bringing out the happy song ever!!! (shiny happy people),

    And the most depressive (everybody hurts),

    and the white stripes!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25 Deadstar


    1. Radiohead.(all albums... plus Thom York...Purrrr)
    2. Muse.(of course)
    3. The Dandy Worhals.
    4. Placebo.
    5. The Beatles.

    These are the only good bands moment that I can think of at the moment (so sleepy)
    if anyone would like to diss any of the above feel free, but that would mean that you are admitting that you are an idiot, which many people fear of being *yawn*.
    Thumbs up to all previous posts, you all like good music (except the person who did that stupid jokey post) therefore i present you with The Three Dancing Leprachuans...
    unfortantly the leprachauns have escaped. WARNING: THE THREE DANCING LEPRACHUANS ARE FLESH EATING AND LIKE UGLY, FAT CUDDLY CHILDREN, IF YOU WISH TO DISPOSE OF UGLY, FAT CUDDLY CHILDREN JUST CALL UPON THE THREE DANCING LEPRACHUANS AND WATCH THE HIDIOUS BALL OF CRYING GOO BE DEVOURED!!!.
