And they need to stop starting the band name with "The".

Best band name at the moment - Shit Disco Cheesy

My mate's boy's the guitarist, and they're doing a lot of touring at the moment - keep an eye out for them.

Nearly all the indie/rock bands of today are shit.

razorlight; keane; the killers; arctic monkeys; ect..theres about another 10 that sound and look EXACTLY the same and theyve all been in rehab for cocaine addiction!! how the fuck can you need rehab for cocaine addiction? they have a couple of lines over a couple of months and check themselfs into rehab, LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL, MUGS.

I'm kind of glad that the live band scene is flourishing in this country and that theyve all but extirpated the disposable pop cack that had taken over the charts about seven yeras ago but in comparrisson to the early/mid 90s genuis of blur; oasis; suede; radiohead; and then travis and the manics theyre just lightweight crap.

Your arguement had some merit (tho i don't agree) until you mentioned Travis! There were probably the most turgid, lightweight band from that era.

I think there has been some good stuff in recent years including the Arctic Monkeys and The Killers debuts (tho i would agree they maybe overhyped). What about Bloc Party or The Arcade Fire for example interesting and different indie music.

I will have to agree with you on Keane and Razorlight middle of the road sell outs IMO, like the stereophonics later stuff.

How can you say Keane sound like other bands? they are very unique.

Putting past bands on pedistals and rubbishing new ones will always happen from decade to decade, nothing new there.

The truth is its just not true.

I don't think anything will top the advert circa 1990/1991 for Ned's Atomic Dustbin being supported by Dumpy's Rusty Nuts.

Happy days!
