so only two people for Oasis. they are a great rock band. i have seen them 3 times so far. they came at such the right time. the whole seattle thing was really coming down (with kurt's death) Oasis has IMO two of the best record in history. great live shows.
I'm really big on the new Strokes album right now, it's so good.
Great album isn't it? When I play that album, the closest comparison I can make is like 250 years old. LOL. Vivaldi? Bach? Regardless it rocks.
I can't say there's a "best band" after Pearl Jam. To me there's PJ and everyone else is heard differently.
Soooo instead here's a bunch of bands that I really like that some may know but most do not from the looks of this thread. I'm not listing them to seem cool. I couldn't be cool if I practiced full time. But I really love them and it would be great if others could hear them.
Blue Tile, Mute Math, Sufjan Stephens, Broken Social Scene, Ambience, One Day Symphony, Keating, Phil Griffin, The American Dollar.
There's more but I'm not at home so it's kinda DUH.

There was a time when I could have easily said
The Who
R.E.M or
Jane's Addiction
but these days, when i look at the last few albums in each of these bands cataloge, I SHUDDER and think "dear, god, what the FUCK happened !?!"
... so ... i don't know ... i'm at a loss.
for me NO band has had the consistency that PJ has had ... even if you claim that after Yield, PJ was INconsistent ... their cataloge is still MORE cohesive than ANY band with that many albums ... Maybe Neil Young gets a "immunity idol" for having SOOOO many albums ... ?

"I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."
Not really, I am just kidding, but seriously... All time? Floyd, The Who, Hendrix, Stones, Beatles, Zeppelin, maybe the Doors.
Now? Not really anybody in the music industry could top Pearl Jam...Theres no really current band I like better, or that I think has a chance to be better. People say Coldplay and Radiohead are good, but I think theyre both overrated and boring.
Hard to choose just one... Tool, Slayer, Metallica... Hmmm, might have to go with Slayer. Just got tix to the July 14th show up here in Seattle... Fuckin A..
