Pixies

Shapeshifter
Stone Roses
Beastie Boys
Kings of Leon
Flying Nun Genius (JPSE, Bailter Space, Straightjacket Fits, Able Tasmans, The Verlaines...)
OdESSA
The Checks
Billy Bragg

Not sure about that tenth... Tigers - Steve Earle call is a biggie, Public Enemy, Paul Kelly, early REM, The Pogues, The Pixies...genius... oh crap... who do you drop, to replace with who ?

I give up...

Oh, how could I forget Weller, in all incarnations, The Jam, Style Council, solo...

Stupid idea.  I'm going to lock it to stop my torment.

Arctic monkeys
the killers
paolo nutini (not a band but yea)
Bob marley
Flight of the conchords
Jack johnson
Kaiser chiefs
Kings of leon- Click me!
modest mouse
and then someone like fat freddys drop, the strokes or coldplay.

Thats pretty good but a few would change depending on mood and other things.chocnut2008-02-13 22:57:46

steve earle is a sitter imo - you can go to him for everything from political rock to bluegrass

Billy Austin is an amazing anti-death penalty song and the guy writes melodies that stick

and if all that fails you can just open a bottle of something tasty and butcher the lyrics of copperhead road

with you on Paul Kelly, , The Pogues, Weller,

and amazingly no Clash yet!

but you are right most of us would still feel we'd missed someone good with a top 50

I don't know why but there a very interesting band to listen to. Go past the lyrics they are quite talented muso's and how can you hate a vocalist in a metal band who passionately likes  World of Warcraft.

Iggy Pop

In CC's defence, the normal boyfriend meets girlfriend, loses girlfriend formula doesn't quite fit the music (unless the setting is in a morgue, of course    )HarryHotspur2008-02-17 08:51:19
