Pumps it's not often you come across someone with such eclectic taste in music such as your good self. I'm quite surprised to see The Dooley's get a mention on the thread as I didn't rate them myself but each to their own obviously.

The 90`s where my 60`s. I was an Indie kid(well a 20 something Indie kid) A great era. Massive Blur, Oasis,Verve, Charlatans fan...but for me the real class is with Led Zep, Kinks,Beatles etc. These are the bands which will stand the test of time. Same with Nirvana i think. Although favouritism is something which is free to all. Good choices though pal. |

By:
imp retty sure the bands I listed will stand the test of time, well oasis, blur and verve at least, i'd be willing to bet oasis still outsell the bands you listed esp there first two mega albums, but i may be wrong

Oasis are already starting to blend into the background. The music did not have the long lasting grooves. It was for that time. Great for that era but bye bye. They were a mild version of a few genres. A little bit of Beatles, a little bit of Sex Pistols, a little bit of the Jam, a little bit of T Rex, and on and on. It wont live forever. |

oasis outsell the beatles me thinks not
|

By:
Beatles sales are at 1 billion.
Oasis sales are at 70 million. How many more are you expecting to be sold Ayres Rock  |

By:
Surely the probability that Oasis wont ever "outsell" the Beatles isn't really what's important here.
Music in general, individual songs perhaps and bands most likely are emotive creatures that reach deep inside of each of us (or not) and the feeling that we each get from a melody, rhythm, beat or turn of lyrical phrase cannot, surely be quantified. The memories, or even more than than that - the transportation to a place or time or even a specific heartbeat that a second or two of a certain song can impart on us is the same as the question of where were you when JFK/Elvis/Princess Di or whomever died. Songs, music and bands will be here until we all go overboard and capsize, the second worst thing we can do shirley is to ignore everyone else's recommendations (ie top 5) to listen to a potentially good one and the ultimate sin is to criticise anyone else's choices. Having said that, should anyone put Kylie up and in particular "I should Be So Lucky" I'll hunt them down and punish them with a wedgie or seven. That fecking tune seemed to wake me up more often than not at a certain time (turn of the 90's I'm guessing) and cost me about 3 bedside clock/radios! It's music FFs, enjoy it all. |

And anyway, for the third time, I wasn't taking a 'pot shot' at your personal choice, I was just saying I felt it was a bit daft putting down as one of your top five all time favourite bands, one that has only ever released two albums. Incidently, Howd, it would be difficult to discount the founder of The Velvet Underground, with probably 20 solo albums to his name who has influenced, by their own admission, the likes of David Bowie, Iggy Pop and many more......in favour of a band with the 'Manchester sound' who released a couple of very good albums. But it's all about opinions...... |

But Lou Reed isnt a band.
|
|
By:
Fair enough, but he always plays and records with a band.

By:
I think there was sarcasm in Howdi's post re Lou Reed (though I could be wrong).
|

By:
Sadly not, JOCI Club, unless he was being sarcastic twice...

Gotta love how these "fav ever band" threads ALWAYS turn into a SEETHfest for the Oasis haters.
For me Oasis were always a live act,who,live were as good at the very end as they were at the very begining. If people hate Oasis then good for them(it's all about opinion) but purrleese spare us all the "they did 2 great albums and the rest were shoite" old pony...as if someone hating the music is really gonna devour the 1st 2 albums in the first place! For me: The Jam The Who The Beatles |

wtf, it doesn't what your opinion is on this, their songs are classics, and on respected music magazines polls, two of their albums were voted very highly, most of their b-sides are 100 times better than any track released to day so not sure how they blend in to the back ground if anything it shows up how crap music is today |
