Yeah, everything is being turned Xtreme. I'm just waiting for Xtreme breakfast cereal.

Playlist looks set to appeal to those who think they have heard of bands before anyone else. Shame. Could've been great.

Collingwood, I'd say. Anderson has always struck me as a fiercely inconsistent bowler. Let's play safe, add another batsman, and though it slightly disrupts the balance of the side, we could get some runs on the board and still have Flintoff, Harmison, Hoggard and Giles, as well as Collingwood's military medium.

Yeah, and on the subject I don't think this radio station sounds like my cup of tea

Why do I get the feeling they're more likely to play pink than tool on this channel...

oh and yeah collingwood, though with the oval normally taking spin, i'd've picked keedy

That playlist looks like the Kerrang! daytime playlist.

ie they're gonna play what's in the NME.

The only thing xtreme about any of these bands is that they are xtremely crap (well most of them anyway)
This is just for all the indie kids to be even more pretentious twats than they were before.
I mean magic numbers? how could anyone call them xtreme?
the closest to heavy music on there is the foo fighters and green day, and the green day song on the playlist, well that's just a ballad.
I think someone's head needs to be on a stick for this one, I really do. I'll settle for Pete Doherty's though.

It's the almost the exact same playlist as Xfm. I wouldn't call that an alernative. it's just a copy. I wish there was a station like KEXP in seattle- now that would be alternative

Xfm is much better at night, with Exposure I and II

Thankyou. I've done it now!

Alas, the music that now makes up Xfm-at-night was the raison d'etre of that fucking station in the first place. Now it serves as much purpose to the ethos and playlist of the station as the post-9pm equivalent on Radio 1 serves for its. I can see little difference in that Virgin artist line-up and the muck I stumble across on daytime 104.9 when it's played at me, anyway - dunno about Virgin's station prole-art-threat, but daytime Xfm makes me want to lay down in front of an angry car enough on its own (without even thinking about the people/history/'branding'..)

I wouldn't call Xtreme alternative either. But then neither would I bloody call 90% of Xfm 'alternative' (ha..) either. It pains me what coulda been, looking back - the irony is the original Xfm should've had one of the 3 licenses that eventually went to Virgin & Heart & another MOR/AOR station in the mid-90s. How incredibly different things could have been, simply if the station and its original owner/s had got what they all deserved & at its peak...

But then look at Kiss and even Choice, years down the legal broadcasting line, now owned by EMAP/Crapital respectively. Maybe I'm kidding myself and Xfm would've ended like it is now anyway...
oh blah blah bllkfadl;\./.....*howls at moon*

Capital owns Xfm.
