Oasis vs Bush , Gallagher boys walk this
PJ Harvey vs Hole , One way contest
Super Furry Animals vs Candlebox , this is getting a bit silly now isn`t itAll those Riot Grrl bands vs Kenickie , OK you can have this one

I make that 8 : 1 to Britpop


*thorn in the side...*

I'd disagree with much of this. Okay over the entire catalogue of Pearl Jam I'll give you the Primal Scream seal of approval but I personally think Ten is moneybags ahead of Primal Scream.
AIC made some bullshit but I'd still take them over NO.
Oasis vs Bush. I have a grudge against the Gallaghers (twats) so I can't be unbiased about this. No comment on this.
And Soundgarden? Soundgarden were pretty bloody decent. You could argue they're just more grunge (which is easy when you hate grunge in general) but I say they were a damn good band. Better then Massive Attack.

Nirvana and Radiohead...too close, thats like Metallica or Maiden?
In this wee showdown theres no sound basis for picking the better band other then personal tastes. People will argue for Nirvana till the cows come home, and likewise for the Radiohead fan.
