right then, ken's a bit hungover and needs a decent thread
to sort out his PAIN.
my question today is..
what is your favourite band ever ? why?

mine has to be joy division because they were the band i
grew up with and listening to unknown pleasures today still
blows me away-martin hannets production on that record was
stunning. and lyrically, ian curtis was phenominal. and is
stephen morris the best drummer ever?? all born from a band
who went to sex pistols gig and thought 'that seems a bit of
a laugh'...go on then, whats yours???

Mine is absolutely hands down...The Cure...
Like you KEN, I gre up, well since about 5th grade,
listening to the Cure. As corny as it sounds, their music
REALLY helped me through some LOW times and has ALWAYS made
me soooooo happy....
Disintegration and Faith will always have a special place in
my heart.
Robert Smiths quick with and absolute brilliant songwriting
will NEVER be matched....

They were and still to this day could be the soundtrack to
my dreams...good or bad.
=)

That's a tough one. I'd have to say the Manic Street
Preachers. While their stuff and direction has been lame
since the Holy Bible, that album has touched me like no
other.

Its got great lyrics and stripped down, raw music. I
recommend it to everyone. Forget the crap they've put out
before, and since then - this is the shit.

It also marked a change in my life. I was about 16 and
started taking an interest in the world. That album is a
great reference point for politics, literature and ideas.

for me it's nine inch nails...

i got into them around the perfect drug was released...and
fell in love ever since...I still think that the downward
spiral is the best cd ever created (even the artwork is
phenominal), i love the tracks like the becoming, herasy,
erasur. trent's programming was so unique, and insanely
beautiful. and trent's work has always been an influence. i
got into electronic because of aphex twin...but it was trent
who got me into aphex...if it wasn't for nin...i'd still be
listening to "bone thugz n' harmony."

heh, it's funny because when i first saw closer premierd on
mtv, i was all like "fucking head-bangers, with their fucked
up videos, and pulling apples out of pig's mouths, and names
like "clooooooser" and "frrrrrrrrrizzle fry" and "mr.
kriiiiiiiinkle" and "pork soda."

now i think closer is one of the most beautiful vids
ever...and that whole "dirty orange" look trent had back
then...i really fucking wish i was into his stuff when he
did his self-destruct tours...
