August 24, 200323 yr I have an obsession with British bands as you can see, and I love discovering more and more bands. I used to listen to this AMAZING radio-station on Live365.com that was simply called 'New British Invasion', it had the BEST music EVER but sadly, it closed down three months ago :cry: Through that radio I got to discover a lot of artists I really like at the moment (more like discover them PROPERLY): Stereophonics (who soon became my 2nd favourite band - after Travis and Coldplay), Doves, Bush, Ash, Blur, Manic Street Preachers, Oasis, Reef, Suede... you get what I mean, right? "the best of the best". After this station closed I was gutted cos there was no way to "discover more bands" anymore :rolleyes: :lol: But recently I've gotten into Idlewild, Haven and the Coral - all three are fantastic from what I've heard. Don't you just love this feeling of finding a new fantastic band to like? :D Maybe it's just me.

September 5, 200322 yr I love just going down to the record store and taking chances on new artists. Sure, some of it might be crap, but most of it is really interesting. That's how I found out about Nada Surf, Interpol and Rooney. ......and some of the clerks there aren't half bad-looking.... :wink3:
