Kilian I've had just about enough of your Chems bashing.

Uncle Tupelo - No Depression.

Jeffy B's importance need hardly be stated.

This is the problem.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 20 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Ok Ned. Jeffy B = Coldplay, Starsailor, Travis, latterday manics, muse, jj72, answer your question. Most imitated vocal style of the 90's. And ronan, i'll bash the chems if i want! I know where you live so don't get lippy with me! Stop browsing the net and finish those journalism assignments.

Most imitated vocal style of the 90's.

Perhaps so. Note I didn't say it was a *good* thing. And you left out the most obvious example, namely "Fake Plastic Trees," which is miles better on its own than Buckley's outrageously annoying oeuvre...

Korn-debut album, brought rock back to where it should be, in everyones stereos. Green Day-dookie, gave punk rock a chance to be heard even tho some people might call them sellouts, it just opened new eyes for new age punkers. although this is 2000-01 linkin park, hybrid theory, that started the end to all that pop music bullshit and i mean who doesn't own a copy of that cd. those are my top three.

I don't...

Prude, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Yeah, neither do I. Odd to hear you complain about 'pop music bullshit' when of course Linkin Park are pure pop. And boy band. ;-)

Ned Raggett, Monday, 4 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

I don't own it, but then I missed out on the whole new age punkers scene.

The most seminal thing about Selected Ambient Works is the legion of wankers that bang on about it.

Dr. Dre - The Chronic Nirvana - Nevermind Green Day - Dookie

Jeffy B outrageously annoying? How dare you! And after listening to an album's worth of tuneless nu-metal dirges by the likes of Korn and Papa Roach youd give your right arm for some of Linkin Park's gleaming pop hooks. I agree that their not particularly influential or even that good, but they bring a more tuneful side to nu-metal.

The person who invoked Linkin Park will probably never post here again,and in any case,their album came out in 2000.Linkin Park can get it in the yarbles.Repeatedly.Their singer looks so dimwitted I think I can forgive them because he doesn't know what he's doing,but then I have to listen to him.

It's all too easy, sometimes.

And after listening to an album's worth of tuneless nu-metal dirges by the likes of Korn and Papa Roach youd give your right arm for some of Linkin Park's gleaming pop hooks.

Then clearly the trick is to not listen to said album's worth of material.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 20 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

#1 nirvana- nevermind #2 my bloody valentine- loveless #3 pavement- slanted & enchanted #4 radiohead- ok computer #5 godspeed- #%$#$# (that first album)

Linkin Park shouldn't be counted as an influential 90s band, but they're fun to listen to. Yeah, I said it. BRING ON THE DIS.

Dan Perry, Friday, 22 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

The one or two times I've heard them they seemed to have a way with a chorus. Like all boy bands should.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 22 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Most influential and important album of the nineties : My Bloody Valentine, 'Loveless'

Also up there : Portishead, 'Dummy' Gastr Del Sol, 'Camofleur' Super Furry Animals, 'Radiator' Radiohead, 'OK Computer' PJ Harvey, 'Rid of me' Bjork, 'Homogenic' Magnetic Fields, '69 Love Songs' (tries for my number 1 spot)

That's all I can think of right now...

Bathory Hammerheart or Darkthrone A Blaze in the Northern Sky (pick 'em)
Organized Konfusion STRESS: the extinction agenda
Slint Spiderland
Panacea Low Profile Darkness
and uh. . . oh the tough final decision. . . but I'm gonna give it to. . .
no way this won't be anti-climactic. . .
My Bloody Valentine Loveless

Alex in SF, Tuesday, 2 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago) link

Oh wait a second. Talk Talk Laughing Stock is more influential that either Slint or MBV. So toss MBV.
