Sticky: On This Forum You Must Have These Opinions.

[cliche guevara]

Comedy bands: This is a very fine line. For every Ivor Biggun there is a GWAR, for every Jack Black there is a Bill Bailey. Therefore the genre itself is clearly not pure fail. Therefore we leave it to the individual to justify. Remember, getting it wrong will result in your being laughed at deservedly.

GWAR are most definately list one, for two reasons. First of all, who can argue with the lyric "Fish fuck baby, I'm gonna fuck you with a fish"? And secondly, they had an entire Beavis and Butthead game based around them.

Don't worry, I've donned my flame retardant suit.

LIST 1: all american bands period 1979-1988 who were on indie-labels set up by other UG bands
(even the shit ones)

List 1 - near the top in fact.

Now - read the OP and go and make another 1800 posts before yuou come back here with such crap.

 

[Augie March]

Have we got crappy-emo-bands-who-now-think-they're-the-Beatles (aka ) on list 2?

If not, they should be.

 

[killer b]

i quite like panic at the disco.

you can have fallout boy though.

 

[Cheesypoof]

what was the point of this thread?

was it supposed to be 'ironic,' or a dig at some of the cynical pseudo music know it alls on here, who think they know everything but know nothing anyway?

whatever irony you intended, this thread just seems like a load of confused bollocks to me

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

Aren't you a journalist?

 

[Cheesypoof]

Aren't you a journalist?

yeh. what do you think of this thread?

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

I think it's people who have a marginal interest in music taking the piss out of the snobbery they know they are guilty of occasionally.

so it should be a sticky?

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

does that bother you?

 

[Cheesypoof]

does that bother you?

no. i think it doesnt qualify as a sticky.

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

People don't pay attention to stickys anyway. This discussion proves that.

It is as serious as cancer.

[killer b]

Yes, it's entirely fucking serious. No kidding, if you don't adopt 'the rules' immediately you must leave the forum.

Oasis are list 2. I didn't think that even needed to be said. Anyone who doesn't think they should be there should get off this forum now, I've alerted the Stasi.

Shamefully, I used to like them for about six months or so -- years ago. Then I purged myself and further to that, subjected myself to a period of self-'re-education'

 

[bluestreak]

That's good, of Walworth. The rules apply to you too.

 

[rollinder]

Nooooo

They are better than lists, they are beyond such rubbishy categorising, they don't have a myspace page you know - that's a HMHB fact

They have
a fan one though (and an apparent tribute band)

 

[dodgepot]

bump - where do glasvegas fit in?

 

[bluestreak]

You must like them. They are damn near perfect.

 

[Dr. Furface]

But they're British Pop Music and clearly not one of the 4 exceptions. And also they're the new Oasis (version 226).

 

[dodgepot]

can iglu and hartley be added to the list of things that we're *not* allowed to like, please?

 

[dodgepot]

also [glasvegas]'re the new Oasis (version 226).

ooh are they? oh dear. i didn't know that. i've just purchased their album after soulseeking it and deciding i love them, too. :-/

<goes off for a rethink>

 

[Iam]

I guess I'm out of the "cool club", then, cos I think glasvegas are just another ordinary band.

 

[El Jefe]

How the hell do they sound like Oasis? You can write a LONG list of people they sound like, but Oasis aren't on it

Calm down sweetie, I didn't say they sounded like them. They don't have to.
