No thats what I came up with off the top of my head. But I'm sure theres a cultural divide. I mean a lot of what you guys like isn't that appealing to me.

Stone Roses
The Prodigy
Much of latter day Oasis
Keane
Whatever band did "cash machine"
Snow Patrol

I'm constantly met with brits here and else where who don't get Springsteen and Dave Matthews so its probably a culture thing but it is what it is. If music had a taste, most british music would have a tarty after-taste for me. Too much electronica fused in there, or sappy balladry that just doesn't fly.

Disclaimer: For christ sake this was off the cuff, if you're going to flip out and hold me to this for months, go F.
