# Hmm...
Sigur Ros is good. Sometimes. I have trouble liking some of their stuff. My cousin was totally into them. Dunno if she still is. Goldfrapp. Good. And I like Robots in Disguise, too.
What do you think about Bjork?

# Gling Glo, Sugarcubes, 808 State, or solo stuff?
(I helped save b3ta! HappyToast Groat froth, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 19:54, archived)
# Sugarcubes
and solo stuff.

# Birthday is easily top 10 of greatest singles ever
I saw Sugarcubes play during Stick around for Joy.
I don't think her recordings have ever quite captured how good she is live though

# ha
great drumming on that album
Life's Too Good still does it for me though

# I agree
but then I also quite like Here today...

# Ho-hum.
Halrighty. I've never seen her live. mofaha and my cousin were supposed to see her in New York, but they didn't. I don't know why.

vocals on some tracks would be a good idea?

I may have to sell my Marshall stack and Trace elliot bass amp soon. Though I haven't had much use for them recently :(

# Oh no.
Why?
(I helped save b3ta! Killerkitti Like my coffee black, just like my metal, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 20:51, archived)
# I may well be leaving the UK
My options seem to be either Canada or Uganda.
And they would be a good source of money to fund such a move.
I've never sold any of my music stuff before, given enough of it away in the past, though.

# They were way out of their depth at Wembley arena
it was a shame, and I wish they hadn't kept apologising. Hopefully they got on top of things for the US leg.
(I helped save b3ta! HappyToast Groat froth, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 20:01, archived)
# Ah, that's a shame. I've only seen them in small venues and they've always had such a great vibe. Perversely, I can't get into their studio stuff.

# Oooh.
I seem to have the most music in common with you. Yeah. I like all that, except the Beatles.

# ^THIS :D
i don't see how anyone can claim to like any music and then say they don't like the beatles
(I helped save b3ta! charlie?, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 20:07, archived)
# why?
everyone has different tastes
i think we can all agree they were talented songwriters
but i know i'm not really as fan of 'the beatles'
and really, only like harrison's solo output (except the fucking travelling fucking wilbury's)
(big fat cocks, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 20:40, archived)
# Noooo.
I like their lyrics, but I don't like their sound. And i don't really think I'm about to change that. :]

(I helped save b3ta! HappyToast Groat froth, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 20:10, archived)
# Why?
That's Mum music. I am not mum, I never will be a mum. Thusly, no Beatles.

# you'll see
i'm not sure forcibly expelling a tiny human from your body makes you like the beatles though....

# Ssssh
Noooo.
The only time I liked the Beatles was when I saw Across The Universe.

# in which case, like it or not
your mum has a better understanding of music than you. Either that or she just remmebres something amazing and refuses to let go
(I helped save b3ta! HappyToast Groat froth, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 20:18, archived)
# I think the latter.
In 10 years' time, the Beatles will sound even more shit than now. So I don't see myself ever liking them, even thought my music tastes are always changing and moving.
(I helped save b3ta! Killerkitti Like my coffee black, just like my metal, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 20:21, archived)
# I am not a massive Beatles fan,
but I think that it is very much the blinkers of youth that would make you say they are shit :)

My biggest problem with them isnt their music, it is more the pedestal that they are put upon that gets me. I dont believe any band could ever be as good as people make them out to be. However, love them or hate them, you have to appreciate that they are the most important band in modern music.
(I helped save b3ta! Redsushi! Whoop! Whoop! Yes, that one!, Mon 7 Jul 2008, 20:28, archived)
# i sort of agree with this
especially the way that the surviving members have managed to get away with churning out some absolute shit (some of mccartney's most recent stuff is pretty good though, especially chaos and creation...)

i'd like to see a modern band so prolific and yet with such a range and quality to their music though

# but by that logic all music dopplershifts into shittness as it ages
which Buddy Holly, David Bowie, Jimmi Hendrix among many many others disprove.

don't throw all of the old stuff out of the window because your folks listen to it. it was the music that shaped that generation for a reason.


i'm revisiting The Distillers at the moment. I do like brody's awful voice

You lose points for Oasis though ;)
