Well I wasn`t being totally serious there.

Anyway i`ve heard the 10 you suggested, this is what I think .....

Oscar's Eye - Gray Matter - Not bad , kinda reminds me of the Buzzcocks which is no bad thing - 7/10

Drink Deep - Rites of Spring - Reminds me a bit of The Fall in some ways but the singers voice gets on my nerves - 5/10

Just Things - Beefeater - Maybe it`s just me but this to me sounds like a Motorhead song at the start & then goes all funky, pretty good - 8/10

Circles - Dag Nasty - Sounds like it could have come off Iron Maidens debut album only with a not so good singer , not bad probably would have liked it a lot more 10 years ago. - 6/10

Money - Embrace - At least they`re better than the British Embrace , not keen on it but I don`t hate it either - 4/10

This Time - One Last Wish - Very much like The Fall , even down to the vocalists delivery ,pretty good - 8/10

Cake - Fire Party - Not that keen on female vocals on this type of song,found it rather grating - 2/10

Blueprint - Fugazi - I`ve heard Fugazi before & didn`t think much to them , they still do little for me - 2/10

Cable - Hoover - Very remincent of Pere Ubu , as i`ve been listening to them a lot lately thats no bad thing - 7/10

Spectra Sonic Sound - Nation Of Ulysses - Got it ,in fact it`s one of my favourites by them anyway 10/10

Now for the next list
