I'm curious...

What are some of the hottest bands in the UK right now? A lot of the same as in the US I might imagine?

Oasis are #1, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

Don't Believe the Truth is, anyways.. "Lyla" has dropped out of the top spot, i think.

its rumored that the next single will be "Mucky Fingers" ... i sure hope its not true, that song got so old so fast. the next single should be "The Importance of Being Idle" or "Part of the Queue".

 

fucking coldplay, theyre such a shitty band, but they've got the number 1 album in the uk.

"Lyla" has dropped to 23rd.

i doubt it... america is very strange about what it lets in... *confused*

there's a load of rubbish in the UK, bands that ALL sound the same, they come on the radio and i can't tell which one it is... (man, i'm soundin like Fly!), like the killers, the engineers, the strokes, the bravery, the kiss, etc... it goes ooooooon and on.

oh and there is a few good bands, but not in mainstream really at all...
www.sikth.com - north london metal
www.dukespecial.com - amazingly talented alternative folk musician

theres a lot more rubbish bands in mainstream than good ones at the moment...

 

sikth fucking rule, check out their album, 'trees are dead and dried out wait for something wild'. they're recording their second album in miami right now, a friend of mine is a friend of the guitarist dan weller. definately worth a look

 

Nice touch mister_13

 

woaaa..someone else who hates coldplay! awesome..everyone here seems to love them..or at least like o.o and the killers too..i had a friend who was on my side with the anti-killers thing, but alas she converted

 

coldplay are musically grand! I really love them though.. I did long before everyone else jumped on the band wagon.

The Killers are grand too!

 

eh..just not really my thing i guess. i think the main reason why i dont like coldplay is they seem to get overplayed..but thats cool that you liked em before they got big. and i <333 franz ferdinand, so imo, killers kinda ripped their sound off..but i gotta admit, they do have 1 or 2 somewhat catchy songs..but the franz thing just always blocked them for me ^^;;

 

Franz are grand!! good to stomp to!

 

haha indeed! "music that girls can dance to"..well, except for i can't dance ..but i can stomp!

 

Oy, bleedin sexist, I can dance to it as well.

 

Ahh you know i meant it lightheartedly XD
guilt tripper. tee hee

 

my brother listens to cold play etc, he thinks they brilliant, that sorta music dont do it for me though, seems a bit bland, hes a guitarist though, maybe ya epreciate it more like that i dunno. i dont listen to the radio so i dont hear much stuff like that, most music in my collection is british though and kicks. depends what ya like i suppose.
a guy my brother loves though is damien rice, well everyone i know who likes him thinks hes fucking amazing. worth a listen if u aint heard him.

 

I despised Coldplay long before everyone jumped on the bandwagon

 

Yeah I'd heard of music well before it sold out
