My avatar is John Lennon though! I'm more of a Beatles fan boy if anything.. And Nickelback are too shit to hate. No one listens to them over here, I was so surprised when I realised they were actually really popular in America.

Loving the Alien's a brilliant track. The man dusted it off for his last tour as well - I've got a couple of bootlegs with it on. Unfortunately it's a pretty boring, pared-down acoustic version though.


I reallt enjoyed that Red Kross compilation you uploaded. I've heard one Alex Harvey song which I didn't really like but, then again, that was years ago, so my opinion might be different now. Down By the Jetty by Dr Feelgood's a pretty cool album too. She Does It Right and Roxette are probably my favourite songs off of it.


It's quite simply 3 minutes of musical perfection, at least in my eyes anyway. I've listened to it so many times I know it basically note for note.

Nice top 5 there too. Mine would probably look like this (in no order);

Radios In Motion
Statues Of Liberty
Helicopter
Respectable Street
Burning With Optimism's Flames

And here's another top 5 from yours truly...

3. Elvis Costello
4/5 - anyone else represented by the professional killjoys by the name of WMG
 
I'm not very farmilar with them and although they do meet some of the characteristics of Folk Punk I wouldn't really call them that. I think its mostly about the attitude when ti comes to Folk Punk.
 
I found both albums a bit boring and forgettable, they had such potential. Is This It still stanRAB up as a good record, I listened to them when the hype had died down so my opinion isn't just because I loved their first album when it came out and nothing could measure up. I listened to them all pretty much at the same time and didn't know which one was their best. Even though I knew Is This It had a couple of hits on. The other two were just dull. Each to their own though. I'll never know how they went from being one of the most important banRAB of the 00s to mediocre.
