6. "Bands you miss"

Gothic_Sponge:
Can't say I ever heard of Lush; I must be a lot older than you. MY list begins and ends with the amazing Pink Floyd.
...which would also be the band I most regret never having seen.

[Gothic Sponge]

8. You may not be, i'm 37.

Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[vogonity]

16. Syd Barrett

Not a band as such, but still.

[TransitJohn]

7. Mother Hips

[Wickerman]

9. The Feelies

[johnnie]

10. The one and only

[Screaming Lord Byron]

11. The Associates, My Bloody Valentine, The Afghan Whigs, JAMC

[quispquake]

17. I saw MBV in DC on their first american tour...

A really good show...I remember that a bunch of my "Anglo-music" friends were raving about the band but I hadn't heard them...it was quite the glorious wall of psychedelic noise...

[Screaming Lord Byron]

20. Yeah, I hear they were fantastic live.

[quispquake]

22. Even better because I had no expectations...

Quite honestly, I wasn't a big fan of much of the British Indy stuff from the period (Sarah records & their ilk), so I was really surprised by how good they were...I now own EVERYTHING I can find by them :)

[Gothic Sponge]

30. I love My Bloody Valentine

Do you like Slowdive?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

31. I prefered Mojave 3, but Souvlaki is pretty good.

[Gothic Sponge]

I saw Mojave 3 back in 96. Great show.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

34. I missed Creed.

Next time they won't be so lucky.

[Gothic Sponge]

38. Use a bigger gun!

;)

[Screaming Lord Byron]

40. LOTS AND LOTS OF GUNS!

(just to make sure)

[Phillycat]

36. I miss the Afghan Whigs very much.

You walked in, just like smoke
With a little come on, come on, comeon in your walk...

[blue neen]

12. Pink Floyd and The Cars

[Kid_A]

14. Portishead.

They haven't done anything since 1997, and I'm even sure if they're still together. But they were really, really good.

[Gothic Sponge]

18. They are in the studio working on new material now .

[Kid_A]

23. Really?

Are you sure you're not getting them confused with Radiohead? Because I talked to someone once who said he doesn't like Portishead as much since they got a male singer, and it turned out he was thinking about Radiohead.

But where did you hear that? That's awesome news.

[Gothic Sponge]

24. From their own website

[kariatari]

15. Smashing Pumpkins

[Kid_A]

21. I was a big fan of theirs, but I was glad they broke up when they did.

I think their last album was just embarrassing. It had a few good tracks ("Heavy Metal Machine" is awesome) but for the most part it was just Billy Corgan stroking his ego so much that I had a really hard taking the album seriously.

But they were GREAT around 1993-97.

[LisaLynne]

33. Me, too.

Sniff, sniff.

[vogonity]

19. Frank Zappa/Mothers

Also Captain Beefheart.

Magic Band indeed.

[Tom Kitten]

25. the classic Fall lineup

during the Scanlon/Hanley years, either Marc Riley or Brix on guitar oK with me
also Bongwater (naturally!)
Bikini Kill
the Pixies (I know, they've reunited but they shouldn't have broken up in the first place!)
the Mad Violets (Wendy Wyld RIP)

[Gothic Sponge]

27. I love Bongwater!

Very few people know who they are.

[vikegirl]

26. Nitzer Ebb

Join in the chant!

[Phillycat]

37. Dear lord.

You must be older than dirt like I am.

[Beaverhausen]

29. The Beatles

and I'll get flamed for this but...

The Police

[flvegan]

32. Rage Against the Machine

[TX-RAT]

39. Hank senior and Bob Wills

I'd waltz across Texas, with you in my arms.
