The C&S one is ok I guess, apart from the shit sample beginning bit

I can't stand chase and status either.

Not heard much, but I'm not that impressed if I'm honest
I don't mind dubstep if the bass is loud and filthy, whereas the C&S I've heard seems rather void of balls.

Vicious circle.
However, even if they had sampled a good song, the good song would then be shit by association with the shit band.
The only answer is for the shit band to stop making music.

I've recorded all my ringtones off my computer.
Thus my text tone is "MONOCLE SMILE"
My ringtone is Keep Hope Alive by the Crystal Method and my alarm is Manic Depression by Emilie Autumn.

My phone's on silent almost always
But when needed it's an excerpt from NIN - Just like you imagined.

'shit band sample great song and thus ruin it' is a worst-case scenario.
Or 'bent TV ad uses great song so you can't play it out ever again' which I have had with Don Farden's 'I'm Alive'.

And don't you think that 'Lust for Life' has lost some sparkle...
...since it was used to flog cruises?

'Trainspotting' had already consigned it to the 'avoid' bin for me.
