[kj] Band-o-rama

[Leigh Newton]

Fine...



 
My take on these bands: 
 
System Of A Down - meh... 
 
Phillip Boa & The Voodoo Club 
- who?


Marilyn Manson - some great songs and fun to see in concert.

 
Nine Inch Nails -- i have a soft spot for the Fragile. Kind of wish i didn't.
 
The Prodigy - Don't really care. Smack My Bitch Up, Firestarter and Poison are all fine songs though.

The Police - Some great songs. Truth Hits Everybody is a real gem of an anthem.

 
Sting - as if

 
Bush - *snicker*

 
Queen - Yes, mostly. Now I'm Here don't get the respect that it's due.

Ladytron - i tried with these guys but just can't seem to care.

 
Les Rita Mitsouko - Sounds like world music which always sucks (just kidding).
 
David Bowie - If you aren't down with this guy then, sorry, but you're kind of a dick.

Bauhaus - Haven't got around to checking them out yet. Someday...


Aphex Twin - One of my favourites. So many great songs.

System Of A Down - I appreciate them as a band and what they  say.  But the fans are asses.
Phillip Boa & The  Voodoo Club - Neva heard of 'em...next!
Marilyn  Manson - Again, the fans annoy me more than the actual artist.  But I  have no reason to ever listen to him.  
 
Nine Inch Nails - Early record are good.  Why bother  now.
 
The Prodigy - I can enjoy them but I  would not miss them

The Police - Yes. But from  years of classic rock stations I don't care if I ever hear Roxanne ever  again.

Sting - Fuck off and take your kids to  soccer practice while drinking a double chai latte.  In other words he  sucks personally and musically.

Bush - Are they  still around?  Are they worth mentioning?  Is it even worth  commenting?  Isn't there only current claim to fame is being  married to someone else more famous?
 
Queen -  Always enjoyable.

Ladytron - I like  them.  Saw them once.  But hasn't drawn me in to buy anything or  become a "fan".
 
Les Rita Mitsouko - Who?  What? Where? Why?
 
David Bowie - Will  always love Bowie.  Even in his lows.
 
Bauhaus - Everything was splendid until the reunion.  And then  the last record came out.....
 
Aphex Twin  - I really don't know him well enough to comment but every time I listen it  seems different then the time before.  I understand why people like  him/them.

 Okay, I'll play too:
System Of A Down - I like a few tracks, but  they're ultimately too silly for me.
 
Phillip Boa  & The Voodoo Club - I am not familiar with their  work.
 
Marilyn Manson - Not very  original and SLAVISHLY overrated, but a smart gent to be sure.
 
 Nine Inch Nails - Love  the early records, but can't be bothered now.
 
The Prodigy - They lost me  at "Baby's Got a Temper"
 
The Police  - Love them.
 
Sting - Apart from  "Fortress Around Your Heart," he's a fatuous douchecake.
 Bush - Ridiculously indefensible, bad music.
 
Queen - Will always love  them.

Ladytron - I should be more  famililar with them than I am. I do love their cover of "Oops Oh My" by  Tweet.
 
Les Rita  Mitsouko - Not for me
 
David Bowie - up to 1.Outside
 
Bauhaus - Yes, of  course.
 
Aphex  Twin - He's made a lot of unlistenable stuff, but made loads of amazingly  original music as well.
