    I think its pretty pathetic when hipsters try to dig themselves so much into their OMGINDIE lifestyle that they will put clearly inferior bands in a list of the top 10 greatest

    Surprised honestly, Pavement and Fugazi were huge.

    Your clearly an idiot. Firstly, its a subjective list. The top 10 bands of all time requires one to put what they like.

    Then lets look at my list.

    1. Pavement - HUGE, they sold out many shows on their reunion.
    2. Fugazi - HUGE, one of the biggest post hardcore bands in the world. If not THE biggest. Would sell out every show they played were they to get back together.
    3. Can - Cult classic, with Kraftwerk the biggest kraut band ever.
    4. Animal Collective, where one of the biggest bands out when there last album came out.
    5. YMO - Early, early synth pop band. Also a huge cult classic

    For that matter neither Atlas Sound or Of Montreal are exactly small fry either.


    So half my list are rather fucking popular bands. Don't start forcing stupid stereotypes on others when you clearly don't know them.

    You're the one trying to have your cake an eat it too.

    And I'd say you probably play the pokies, given your penchant for putting money in the toilet.

    Alright, so bored I thought I'd go through and make a list:


    At The Drive In - Relationship of Command
    Refused - The Shape of Punk to Come
    Jeff Buckley - Grace
    Fucked Up - The Chemistry of Common Life
    My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
    Arcade Fire - Funeral
    Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
    Brand New - The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me
    La Dispute - Somewhere Between the Bottom of the River and Altair
    The Strokes - Is This It?

    That was hard - bl to a bunch of bands that just missed the cut.

    Lack of Steelers Wheel and Stardust appreciation is a worry.

  8. Alec AD Funkotron

    My Top 10 in no order

    Dream Theater - Images and Words
    Weezer - Blue (been my #1 for about 10 years now)
    Guns and Roses - Appetite of Destruction
    Streetlight Manifesto - Everything Goes Numb (haven't listened to them in years though)
    Judas Priest - Defenders of the Faith
    Led Zeppelin - IV
    Savatage - Hall of the Mountain King

    and I'm stumped.

    Were Gaslight Anthem one of the unlucky bands to miss the cut? Also what did you think of David Comes To Life? Everyone raves about it, but I can't for the life of me work out why.

  10. Pretzel P Retzel

    Yeah, the '59 Sound is definitely right up there as an album I love. I even thought about dropping something off to squeeze in but I couldn't decide what to drop.

    I thought David Comes to Life was alright - gets really samey to me after a while and I can't sit through it but there's definitely a couple of good tracks on it. I think Chemistry is a fuckload better as an album - much more interesting and I can listen through the whole thing. The guitar textures all over it are so jizzworthy too.

    Interviewed BRMC at Wulfrun Hall in 2002 when they were doing some random tour with Andrew WK, Lostprophets and some Scouse cunts who I forget the name of.

    New Bon Iver is so good. Just better than the last album IMO.

  15. Pretzel P Retzel

    They two albums are both really good, but For Emma wins for me. Just sticks with me more for some reason - although the self titled definitely has a lot of class tracks.

    Either way, got tickets to see him when he comes over which should be awesome.

  16. Tartmaster AJ James

    I really don't get the whole Bon Iver thing, admittedly I've only heard one or two songs but didn't make me want to hear more.
    Cunts to tell me their best shit to try and change my opinion.

    Hmm, depends on what you're after.

    First album is all acoustic folk style - great vocals, songwriting etc. Sick album to smoke weed to while chilling out:

    Second album has a lot more instrumentation, guess you'd put it under some weird genre like adult contemporary or some bullshit. But honestly, especially if you know anything about recording/writing music, the production and everything on this album is fucking incredible.

    I honestly haven't listened to his second album properly yet. I've been too heavily into the Neutral Milk Hotel catalogue outside the 2 main albums for the last while to get into something else. That and all of Nick Drake and The Decemberists releases that I've attained in the past couple of months.

    Would definitely have The Church in a list of top Australian bands. A quality band for sure and one of the better concerts I've seen.
