Apparently the person who does the shouty bits has left the band. This for me will make them more listenable. Back to top canadian bacon Petrolhead My Car: 1959 Austin Healey Sprite View My Motor: .

So probably anything by the Kaiser Cheifs, Hard-Fi, Pendulum, The Killers or Girls Aloud would tick my box not to mention lots of other stuff I can't remember. Why do I have such a terrible memory for holding music trivia?

The Foos latest (Pretender?) was pretty good. In general though I rarely listen to much modern stuff unless it's by a band I already know or recommended by a friend as someone I'd like.

A good song is a good song, regardless of what genre it comes from. Yay! At least I know I'm not wrong.   Regardless, the song of 2007, whether you like it or not, is that silly 'Umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh'. No other song was played more on radio. _________________ On the other side of the world - Hurlecot de Millou Not the same since 2008 Back to top tali Motoring On My Car: Peugeot 307 1.6s auto Joined: 15 May 2007 Posts: 790 Location: witherbury,upper berkshire Posted: Fri Jan 04, 2008 11:02 pm    Post subject: BeN wrote: Blarno wrote: tali wrote: Gonna get slaughtered for it  , but Take That(worst group in world) Patience and Rule the World were very impressive.
