i think it has to go to the UK
there are just far too many bands you cant argue with...
almost all my favourites are Uk bands
most from either london or manchester...

what has the us given us...aerosmith?
nah a lot of cool bands come out of new york...not much else going on
so many ****ty LA bands and bland hip hop!!! except for the doors...

Australia is a nadir
a pub-rock obsessed musical black hole
although there is excellent indie and dance stuff coming up now
ie presets, juggers, cut copy
and yet another generation inspired by daft punk and the aforementioned

theres still hope for this country....


(ps i know i have been making extreme generalizations, dont take offence...especially seeing as that is kinda what this thread calls for)
