Give a one-hit-wonder a career. Get rid of a band with a career. It's quite simple.

it's a shame Kula Shaker didn't get bigger and Radiohead didn't just disappear after Creep.

That's a trade i'd like.

Your turn...

    Kula Shaker had a few hits and the album sold well in the UK, more a one-album wonder. Don't miss 'em.

    I wish Oasis flopped and the Verve made it big on the strength of their first two albums rather than releasing that commercial britpop diatribe Urban Hymns before quitting.

    3 words "Mystical Machine Gun" lol.:)
    I didn't mind the first album, but this song really killed mine and pretty much most peoples interest in them.:)

    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    Tattva is one of the worst things ever.



    Anyway, I'd lose post-Beatles McCartney (and indeed half of his Beatles output) and make the late 80s punk band Rain as well-known and prolific as Fugazi.

    Travis should have been a lot bigger, and Coldplay should have tanked!

    I always viewed Coldplay as the bastard child of the aforementioned(hate them both).

    They only released 6 songs... :( Their EP, La Vache Qui Rit is amazing and newly available from Dischord records again for the first time in 18 years. It's kind of like Embrace/Rites of Spring, if you've heard them you'll know what to expect. Hardcore influenced but more poppy and anthemic.

    4 of the songs are here to listen to but unfortunately the person that put them up has missed the best song on it, Snakeout :o Even so, That Time of Year is great.
