I swear this argument happens over and over agian

Cliched tastes ftw.[/QUOTE]

Really? And what do you listen to? I also like less popular bands such as the 5.6.7.8's, the Dandy Warhols, Dropkick Murphys, Eels, The White Stripes, The Feelies, Schtum and the Verve. But I'm not sure what you mean by cliched.

Well, the plus side is that if Radiohead were erased, I wouldn't have to listen to people trying to say Sigur Ros sounds like their B-Sides.

Threadstarter has a lame taste in music.

THANK YOU. That has been one of my huge problems with these boards in particular- God forbid someone likes bands that other people like - I mean, hey, they are on Rolling Stones top 100 Bands list, it's not cool to like those... COME ON.

StrumStrum for the WIN.

You like less popular stuff...such as the white stripes? loll.

And I listen to Elliott Smith, Bright Eyes, Cap'n Jazz, Patrick Wolf, Circle Takes The Square, The Fall Of Troy, Million Dead, Sigur Ros, etc.

Tastes can be cliche, most things can be cliche. I've seen people like him who worship the SAME exact bands over and over.

I have no problem with popular music, I listen to Pieces Of Me frequently, and like Blink 182 and Avril Lavigne.

man bono really really really really sucks. coldplay and u2 are stadium music for overweight women. you like soppy music. radiohead made "art" albums because they didnt want to be like all the boring bands you like mr. party. besides shouldnt we be looking at the music we do like instead of trashing all the ones we dont? it seems like you spend more time fuming about what bands you hate than listening to the ones you like.
