Do they actually have a record out? Dando was always such a brilliant, erratic kinda writer, lol. Weird to see all these groups (sort of) coming back together: Pixies, Jane's Addiction, Concrete Blonde, Camper Van Beetoven...

That's an interesting, eclectic mix.

[goldenboy]

Blur, Supergrass, Charlatans, Teenage Fanclub, Jesus and Mary Chain, Komeda, Bettie Serveert, Hives, Vines...I'm sure there's tons of European, Down Under bands I should be checking out...not paying real close attention to new music like I used to...

You know, I have no idea. I saw them in a festival with Jet, Kasabian, Oasis and Doves. They didn't play long and Evan Dando did not look happy to be there. They finished the last song and just got up and left the stage without saying anything.

[prydain]

I have a ?...has anyone heard songs by Breaking Benjamin? Like I said, they're my favorite, but a lot of people say their music is "too dark"...but I don't think they're darker than anyone else...just wondering what everyone else thinks.

[eponinethen]

Black Eyed Peas
Please tell me that's at least a little bit my fault?
:D

[Summers Blood]

I don't have many. I love The Killers, Kaiserchiefs, Sum 41, Linkin Park, Oasis. I know they're not the same genre but I have a wide taste in music.

Wow out of all of those I've only heard of Deftones...and only heard OF them. lol

[Summers Blood]

What!?!? You haven't heard of Placebo or The Cranberries!?!

Now I'm a bit sheltered when it comes to music but even I've heard of them!!!!

Also I left Mr Robbie Williams off my list!

*Summers Blood* wonders how she managed that as she will be Mrs Robbie Williams one day....

[prydain]

Oh - and today after listening to like 10 songs from each band, I now like Nirvana and Orgy. :clap:

I'm just a music freak, huh?

Oh - and everybody, Kasabian pretty much rocks. Their songs "Lost Souls Forever" and "Clubfoot" are my favorites, although every other song by them has been good, too. Thanks for suggesting them, Vilandra. :D

- I also like soundtrack cd's. I've got:
- Two Charmed soundtracks and the Once More, With Feeling soundtrack from Buffy, which is incredibly :lame: I know...

[Black Eye Guy]

Lame?? I think you'll find a number of people on here will have that sountrack, so it won't be concidered lame! ;)

I have to agree I love soundtracks aswell, I have such a hard time picking an acual favourite band, cuz I change it like every week!

Right now I love:

The barenaked ladies
Tegan and Sara - They sound so different, they're fantastic.
Rooney
Sandi Thom
Gorillaz

[eponinethen]

Once More, With Feeling soundtrack from Buffy, which is incredibly :lame: I know...
Hm, why do you think it's lame? I love that episode and the music etc...

[Good6Christina6Evil6]

Sorry I called it lame, it's just when I tell friends I have that soundtrack they look at me like I'm stupid. I like the Tara/Giles song, but I think the one I like best is the one Tara sings by herself "Under Your Spell" I didn't really like season 6, but the Once More With Feeling episode was brilliant...

[eponinethen]

Definitely a brilliant episode :) mhm.
