As in bands with British citizens as members.

If you're on about "I bet you look good on the dancefloor" then it aint that great. I downloaded the demos off of their website and loved the lyrics to Scummy (they changed the name when they released the song) & A Certain Romance. They're good but I haven't heard the album yet so I don't know whether they deserve to be number 5 or not.

In fact, I'm only 20 and haven't been around long enough to hear most of the albums in the "top 10". I really think that best of all time lists have absolutely zero relevance to mordern music and often get stuck in the past. I'd like to see them do a list of the best British albums in the past 5 or 10 years as it may help single out some albums that I'd want to listen to.

Anyway, what makes one album better than another? Every half-decent album is great in its own way and I'm pretty sure that I wont like most of the stuff in that list. Besides, NME is sh!t and where the hell is A's Hi Fi Serious album? [/RANT]

EDIT: sorry, first post happens to be a big rant. And I forgot to say hi. Hi!
