Diss stereophonics (my fave band) so take the oppurtunity to read.

Their version of "Don't Let Me Down" is bad.

That's all.

Dunno. Good question. I like people that try different things. That's something I can connect with because I'm a musician and I'm always trying new things. I suppose alternative rock would be quite a good place to start, but I like electronica, hip-hop and even some classical music. I like Beck because he manages to mix quite a lot of different styles. Sometimes I do like a good session of rock though!

When I've had an argument I just put on music that puts me in a good mood, some Stereophonics songs, for example.

my music tatses follow my moods. i dont really have a problem with people who listen to stuff i dont, but some people do. thats why the music industry often provokes arguments. shame really......anyway music is music, not as important as peace and love.

Oasis used to be good before their image got in the way of the music.

By the way, I meant that Stereophonics aren't entirely "wrong" whn they think they're music is rock.

I.E mine.

Stereophonics - They're a guitar band. They're music isn't shouty using extremes on electric guitars, therefore have catchy songs, put me in a good mood, aren't depressing like Coldplay, not metal-y and another craze in music including bands like Lost Prophets, not irritating and unskilful like pop. They rule.

Travis - Similar to Stereophonics, but are often repetitive and depressing. Driftwood's a good track, though.

If Travis think they're music is rock, then they're stupid, but that doesn't suddenly make their music bad. If Stereophonics think so, then they aren't entirely, because some of the music on their albums is rocky, but it does depend on what you define by the term "rock", as some people call rock metal-y stuff, and some people, i.e me include bands like Oasis and Stereophonics (Who i both like) as rock bands, by the fact that they have a drummer and guitarists that are called part of the band. And it ain't jazz.

With nu-metal and punk now so popular, I can't seem to be able to define a categorical difference between the bands I do and don't like. I just have to go into huge descriptions, and stuff.

The thing is, some of my friends call my taste, such as Oasis and Stereophonics "light rock", but some of their songs don't seem fitting to that title. I find myself calling them guitar bands these days.

They're two high profile bands - and they both play their instruments (a rarity nowadays). Both consider themselves 'rock' bands, when they are both cleary disposable pop. Neither are important to the charts here or anywhere else in the world, except maybe to keep 3SL form the top spot every once in a while. In 10 years time the girls that fancy 'Frannie', or 'Kelly' will look back and laugh - the same as they will with Craig David, Robbie Williams, etc... It's quite easy to compare them actually - they're both crap*
