Silver Sun
Never liked them that much, they jumped on th ebandwagon far too late for me...

Fightstar - 99
Didn't know this lot were still going - thought it was all a flash in the pan. That said I still prefer McFly...

Editors - 'An End Has A Start'
It's a good-sounding single - not much progression from the first album, but... I'll forgive t hem. I don't think the Editors themselves pretend they are that original a band. In the battle of the bands, I'd take them just over Interpol... only just though.

Republica
I remember having a bit of a crush on Saffron. As far as their songs go - Drop Dead Gorgeous and Ready to Go were good but I can't think much else.

Wiredaisies
The new Wiredaisies album - eponymously-titled "Wiredaisies" it's out this week download-only (iTunes link) and has been climbing the iTunes chart steadily. I've downloaded a couple of tracks ('Wake Up' and 'Rocket Girl') and I'm quite pleased with the results. Does anyone else agree? Quite a rocky sound they've got going this time - having heard these guys a couple of years ago they've changed their sound a bit since I last encountered them.

The Cribs - Men's Needs
Haha! Quite cheeky. I like.
-
The Enemy. Are they better than The Jam???
You have got to be kidding me. The Enemy aren't good enough to be the Jam's roadies, let alone the band themselves.

Justice
Yeah I like this track a lot - proper dirty electronica. Justice have done some good stuff of late - that remix of Simian last year was brilliant

Coldplay. Good or Bad?
Indeed - the Stereophonics were one of the worst most hackneyed unoriginal dirgey bands out there. I don't mind Coldplay's music - his voice is far more listenable than fat boy from Keane, and their songs far more tuneful than Travis. But everything in the right dose and they are waaay overexposed. And I can't stand his preachiness either - I feel sorry for the rest of the band if he does it to them as well.

G4 Splitting up
Thank god for that. The way they murdered Radiohead's "Creep" live on national television was too much to bear

PJ Harvey
Can any PJ Harvey fans help me out - has she got a new album out this year? I hear she's got a tour planned so I assume there is an album to go along with it: according to her website (http://www.pjharvey.net/) she is playing the Manchester International Festival on July 7th and then Spain 13th & 14th. Is there any more info on a new album being released at the same time? All help gratefully recieved, thanks :)

Pulp's Best Period?
His 'N Hers is my favourite album - but Different Class I like as well, I just played it too much when it came out

Clara Morgane - J'aime / Sexy girl
Porn stars trying to make it in the pop business... it would be a lot more fun if it were the other way round.

OASIS OR BLUR
C'mon Blur, nudging ahead...

Bravery braced for comeback
They were a rubbish Killers ripoff band judging on the last album and I doubt much has changed
