Them breed of bands were the first ones I really got into - Arctic Monkeys, The Strokes, Libertines, Jet.

I thought The Libertines' first album was great, especially at the time. But the only band from round that era who are still brilliant are the Arctic Monkeys. And they're evolving, not just trying to churn out the same garage rock they did years ago. Unlike The Strokes..

+1, but there arn't a lot of places you can go creatively with that kind of sound and only so long it can be performed with any degree of conviction if any degree of maturity is developed.

I actually liked Hot Hot Heat quite a bit (well, the one popular album at least) but I feel like they never got much respect at the time.

I don't mind the same sound repeated, long as you don't do what The Strokes did. One great album, and then 2 albums that sound like Is This It B-sides.. if they keep a certain standard like you say then fine.

Elevator? That's because it was mediocre.

For some reason I find it funny that people bothered to vote for Pretty Boy Floyd.

You know, I have to confess I've found the occasional Kid Rock song kind of catchy.

Haven't heard that one, wasn't impressed with Elevator. I might give it a go even though I already know what to expect.
