People have given me **** over the stuff I like, just as I have some of you.

As I said, I dont like current/modern music, You do, no biggie. I compare alot of today's music, to music from the late 70s/80s, and I just dont think anything from today compares to it.

I dont know what "twattery" means, but it's hysterical, thanks.
Whoa. What did the 80s have that was as good as 90s (besides thrash metal)?

The Flaming Lips, Bjork, Blur, Nirvana, were all excellent. I am not into Radiohead that much, not huge on Yorke but I think the 90s had better music than the 80s. I like Nick Cave and Cure a little, but the Flaming Lips (and Radiohead) seem to be much better than a lot of the stuff the 80s was pumping out. Any specific bands you think are incredible from the 80s?

Bjork was from the 80s...she used to front The Sugarcubes(and I didnt like her then either). Didn't Blur have a song/album from the 80s? Didnt the Flaming Lips start off in the 80s?

Bands i find "incredible from the 80s":

Depeche Mode
The Cure
The Smiths
Thompson Twins
New Order
NIN
The Chameleons
Icehouse
Violent Femmes
Billy Idol
Adam Ant
A Flock of Seagulls
Christian Death
Red Lorry Yellow Lorry
Lords of the new church
Falco
Kraftwerk(from the 70s actually)
Gary Numan
The Cars
Faith No More
Joy Division
Wire
Throbbing Gristle
March Violets
Talk Talk
FGTH
Fadgadget
Bauhaus
Siouxsie and the banshees
Xymox
Echo & the Bunnymen


Need I go on?

It wasn't all **** in the '80s. It wasnt all Dexy's Midnight Runners and Rick Springfield, there were some excellent, quality bands that were in the 80's. Of course there were some real ****ters, and some enormous dreck, but there was ALOT of ****ing amazing music as well.

Wow...the 80's were a sad decade for music. Yeah there were a few highlights but overall it was just pathetic.

****s like DJ Phoenix who disregard whole genres and eras of music after hearing a few songs from them should have been #1.

Why is it everytime I turn my back someone will come in this thread and use my words as an excuse to bitch about a bunch of non entities none of us really care about.

And In Rainbows is medicore , but you can save that for the In Rainbows threads I mentioned the same thing in there months ago and nobody said a word so don't come into this thread trying to pick me up on it.

Your chance has passed.

I really thought #1 would be In Rainbows after going through the 7 pages it took to get there.
