I'm hopefully seeing them twice this year, once at Glasto and once supporting rem.

Linkin Park?? OK, sure. They're good, but ahead of John Lennon, Bob Dylan and Bob Marley? WTF?

I don't mind a couple of their songs, but it was more that I didn't want to slag them in the thread since obviously SOMEONe likes them,lol.

hahaha ok i apologize to those who like them for insulting them. they just arent my preferred type of music i guess............

I saw the editors when no one heard of them.. yea... also the kooks

green day deserves no votes.

 

you deserve no votes :angry:

 

although yes they did sell out unfortunately :(

so did linkin park

but hey their early stuff is good so why not

 

also when i constructed my list i had shite music knowledge unlike now :wacko:

I hope you guys have The National on this list. Or I'll be very surprised.

Ah, Justin's probably at school. Wait for maybe 4 hours.

 

I'm skipping today :dance: cause I'm in florida :P

AHH YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO THEM. they are so good. their lyrics are some of the best out there. also one of the best concerts ive been to... loooooove them.

Are you serious about the Shins? I thought most people would know they are by now.

this is totally unfair

how on earth a band like the shins can beat R.E.M?? how??:o

i like them but R.E.M. is 923879 times better, for sure!!:wink3:

ummm i beg to differ... A TON. this isn't like BEST BANDS...its favorite bands of all time. and for me... the shins are without a doubt more of a favorite band than REM. and i could see you make the argument with like the fray... but whyd you have to pick on my shins :P

SERIOUSLY? :shocked2:

 

Even after they were the stars of the Garden State soundtrack? And their latest album (which is gorgeous btw) did quite well? And their song Phantom Limb even got some mainstream radio play?

 

 

The moment of their immortality:

They may not actually change your life, but they are brilliant. :cool:

 

 

(Man, between them and Deathcab, you really need to brush up on your major American indie bands.)
