a trend that has continued to this day. I neither know, nor care, what is in the charts.
I know one thing though. I really really loathe Def Leppard. As much as U2, if not perhaps a little bit more.

It pains me to say this, but I have no shame.
U2's work in the mid-90s was actually alright. Between Achtung Baby and Zooropa there are easily 8 great songs.
Apart from that, you are right about U2.

at being fat clowns who do comdy rap, U2 are very good at being pretnetions irish wankers. whiler I agree on the 8 good songs, I hate ICP less as people, they are funny.

There is nothing wrong with humour and warmth in music. But there is nothing at all right about ICP.

I just don't listen to shit juvenilia. Hence my dislike of Pendulum.

They started off well and then went commercial for easy bucks. They've made a fortune out of selling piss poor nu metal to kids. Verily, they are the emo Chase & Status.

aside from them being dicks (the members being twats doesn't stop me liking a band, I like Metallica) it's mainly their recent stuff that makes me loathe them. Vertigo and Elevation are two of the worst songs ever written.

But Lemon, Stay, One, Zoo Station are all ace.
And they are tremendous dicks.

and I don't care for it much.
There's a song that talks about New Year's Day? That one is ok.
Def Leppard on the other hand have absolutely nothing going for them. Fucking terrible.

This is Lemon, from when U2 were ironic, arch, arty and clever: www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5MBHO2oEfM

I'm listening to a new purchase at the moment and don't want to ruin it by listening to U2 in the middle.

it's not bad. Mentioned it to my mates who I was sure had some and they'd never even heard the name. Strange.

Def Jux were very much the pack leader at that point- backpack hip hop had given way to crews like Cannibal Ox and The Perceptionists. Kind of like an American Mo Wax but with vocal acts rather than concentrating on instrumentals.

entirely down to having a new job. Almost all my posting was during the working day before.

I mentioned possibly calling Bristol drinks next year if that would be of interest?

but I've been shocking at not visiting friends I've known for years who I should be visiting so should take care of that before I go meet some b3tans.
