ORIGINAL: AW1Steve The 1980's were an era where some of us liked the music and girls (please try NOT to throw up Kristian, I know your feelings on the subject). But the 1970's were the polyester uears , and the 1990's were the age of rap. The 1980's were to me a brief oaisis. The 90s were certainly not all rap. You liked grunge, didn't you? 'fess up! I'm going to agree with Steve on this, it was not all rap. We had Oasis, Blur, The Verve, Pulp, Ocean Colour Scene, Stone Roses, James, Garbage, Men at Work. There was some good stuff towards the end as well, the Stereophonics and Travis. And, er, Take That, Boyzone and the Spice Girls I've got to admit to a bit of 80's nostalgia though. The Clash, Elvis Costello, Genesis. Dear Thread I'm uncool And the Kinks. If liking The Clash, Elvis Costello, Genesis and the Kinks is "uncool", I guess that's what I am. Blur, Garbage and The Verve were good. Loathed Oasis, though. My Good Thread, they sucked. I liked Oasis, they peaked with What's the Story. Their recent stuff was pretty pants really, except the importance of being idle. But that's just one song. I think the only band since 2000 that's made it onto my playlist is the Kaiser Chiefs. The Verve stopped me from going mental in Al Udeid a couple of summers ago, almost every radio station was playing Kid Rock's song. BFBS was playing Love is Noise instead. Dixie (et. al.): I have a very strong liking of some of the Brit trance / electronica outfits from the 1990s and early 2000s. Colourbox and Way out West spring to mind as some of the best in the genre. I know a few Colourbox hits made top 10 lists out there ("The Moon is Blue" became a college love anthem). What say you?
