4.The Feeling - Fill My Little World
5.Stereophonics - Dakota
6.Hard-Fi - Tied Up Too Tight
7.Simply Red - Holding Back the Years
8.Kasabian - Empire
9.Travis - Last Train***
10.Razorlight - Don't Go Back to Dalston
*This is based on seeing the Walkmen live being one of the most agonisingly boring experiences of my life - I've never actually heard a full album by them, and nor would I probably.
** I don't dislike Coldplay so much as find them a little dull except here.
***Again more apathetic than actual dislike.
i nearly put your no.4 on there
again, i don't dislike travis or coldplay but i'm fairly indifferent towards them. i wouldn't switch the radio over if they came on.
^5 on number 4
though I'd probably pick 'Writing To Reach You' as the only decent Travis song.
"Last Train" is amazing
I actually quite like Driftwood too but "Last Train" is really weird and intense and unhinged and, though production-wise it sounds like a Travis song, in many ways it's quite unlike them.
The Walkmen put on one of the best live shows I've ever seen
True story.

'Mars Volta - any'??
That kinda misses the 'songs you like' bit of the thread off.
Mars VOlta - Any
how on earth does this work? "you could pick any of their songs and it would be one that i like, but i dont like them"?
ahhh i've just seen that
he says songs you like. But then i wouldn't dislike them if i liked on song.
You've broken my brain.
is it that easy?
i can't think of a band i don't like but like one song because that would have been vampire weekend if i hadn't gotten to liking them because of Blake's Got A New Face.
fill my little world
this song makes me want to kill myself. God knows how bad their other songs are if this is a highlight
