    True that.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Yup me too. Soul Mining is listened to regularly.

    Talk Talk, Spirit of Eden is my favourite album of all time, must have listened to it 1,000 times (usually p!ssed).

    I always thought they were more Anti-Nowhere League than Ramones.
    "I couldn't believe the size of her bum,
    She used to play for Wigan at the back of the scrum"

    :lol:

    Good point about Anti-Nowhere League, the Ramones reference was more about the general sophistication of the guitar playing and length of the songs :)

    No doubt there will be some enlightened, but not a band I can talk about without people saying "Who?".

    There was always going to be someone who was your "nemesis" :D Big like here.

    That's the one. Listen to the ANL song "So What". It's a classic of sorts.

    In the 70s/80s I seemed to be the only person who still listened to King Crimson. Now it seems that they were always the ultimate prog rock band according to every documentary about that period. Maybe Nine Inch Nails will be remembered the same way.

    Sonic Youth

    When I mention them as a great band, it is usually met with blank looks

    Not a massive fan, but I love the album "Dirty", which was their MTV era effort

    Anyone heard of Madder Rose? Am listening to them now

    True, and that's probably why I don't know anyone who appreciates either of them.

    Wasn't going to mention The Wedding Present as they are my favourite band of all time, so assumed someone else liked them. Saw them playing George Best in Southend a couple of years ago. Have you tried Cinerama?

    I remember Car Song, and the associated album. I do YT Car Song occasionally for a nolstagia fix.
