Sorry to be harsh kids, but FOR HEAVENS SAKE, if the trials of Britpop achieved nothing else, surely they allowed us to leave this kind of nonsense behind? I think B&S are GRATE, i spend HOURS berating other people and forcing them to listen to it because i happen to LIKE other people and want to introduce them to good things. If lots of people like the same things as me i think of that as a GOOD thing. If a band i like does well, that means they get to be ON THE RADIO more often, get to appear in MAGAZINES more often, get to be ON THE TELLY more often, and get to keep on making records.
I do agree with you on this point, Mark. Sorry Glenn, but your opinion sounds a little bit elitist... Do you think you own the bands you like? Aren't you happy when one of your friends, who is not specifically into indie, tells you he likes B&S? leaping around all night long, soporific-eyed during the day Pierre-Henri Crave +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
