Art Brut, Bring Me The Horizon, Blink 182 and RHCP get honorable mentions.

I saw Art Brut in Aberdeen a last year. I don't have a lot of time their studio output, but thought they were great live. The singer (I forget the guy's name) knows how to put on a good show - he's got a very good, charismatic stage presence. Or at least he did when I saw him anyway.

The problem with this show was 90% of the stuff they played was from the new album - which is awfully dull. So every song just melted into one long snore. To me there was no charisma or presence, i just wanted them to get off so the DJ could come on. Shame really, i used to be quite fond of their debut.

I feel the same. I've seen live performances of songs on 'BBR&R' on youtube, and they're phenomenal. Knowing how much of an emphasis they put on the new stuff makes me reconsider wanting to see them.
