Band that you like, but everyone else doesnt... (tickets, metal)

the Strokes are brilliant, they just do good tunes. The 'saviours (**** you spellcheck it has a 'u' in it) of rock' press buzz thing died down after their first album I thought, because it saved rock

i remember reading about tickets for their first London gig changing hands for upwards of £300, before they even played a note overseas

Rock never needed any saving.

i know, i was just being inflammatory, force of habit

back to topic though - I like Supertramp and Steely Dan. But I draw the line at Creedence, even if they had some good ones

I don't mind a couple of the Strokes singles.

I hate them more for what they are than what they do.

it depends how you define rock I guess. If rock is like the force, flowing through all of us and everything around, then the nu-metal era was definitely a disturbance. I mean there was actually a time when Limp Bizkit's 'Rollin' was selling records. How quaint!
