Are New Model Army your favourite band? Other favourite bands/artists

[Red]

 

Some of my other favourite bands/artists

Theatre of Hate
Spear of Destiny
Beautiful South
REM
AC/DC
Metallica (prefer the early stuff)
Bowie
Gene Loves Jezebel
Carter USM
Salvation
March Violets
SDC/DC/The Cult  (Again prefer the earlier Cult stuff)
PWEI
Wonder Stuff
Jam/Style Council/Weller
Early Human League/Heaven 17
Ultravox (both Foxx and Ure eras)

I could go on

Also listen to quite a bit of ska, psychobilly (Meteors, Guana Batz, Stingrays etc etc)


Personally i have a massive music taste and if I like it that's good enough for me


Also a massive fan of Northern Soul mainly due to over 30 years of scootering so it's what you hear around the rallies along with the ska and mod stuff

Wow, surprised that no one here has yet to mention:

Theater Of Hate,
Spear Of Destiny,
Beautiful South,
or
REM





See how utterly rude that is?
Get my point, now?

Nope.  Not by a long shot...

Doesn't matter whether they've been mentioned previously or not as it's a personal question to each of us so we give our own answer irrespective of what anyone else likes

I don't need to read though to see what others have posted as it won't change what i write

No doubt some of the bands/artists I have listed have already been mentioned and no doubt I could mention some that haven't.

Don't really give a toss

BOB MOULD. Check out the youtUse footage from Letterman last week. It's f'in brilliant!

I'm on whats known as the Sugarlist which is a fan site so I get sent e-mails when anything Husker Du and related appears so received a link to it and yeh for an old looking fart Bob certainly rocks

[Darkness]

NMA have been in my top 5 bands since the mid eighties but Husker Du have been my fave band of all time.  Other bands in there are
Electric six (very very underrated)
The Chameleons
The Gun Club
Pixies
The Skids
Bob Mould
Joy Division/New Order

I love Husker Du also. No Grant Hart in your list though.

A fair point as I've collected all his releases and even managed to see him live so maybe I should add him.  But I suppose over the years since the demise of Husker Du his output has been quite small in comparison to Bob's so I sort of see him as a part-timer.  That said all his album releases have been of a pretty good standard whereas some of Bob's have not quite hit the target for me

Yeah, Grant Hart hasn't been prolific enough. I always prefered his songs on Husker Du records.

I'd say I'd probably go for more of Bob's songs in Husker Du but then again he wrote more especially on the earlier releases but solo wise Grant's pretty much on top considering he's released a lot less than Bob.

I have only one Husker Du album; very early live stuff called Land Speed Record. It's a cracker, although the sounds are muddy.

Bob Mould had this band called Sugar too. I still have it on a cassette. I sort of liked it. Heard he did children's songs too...

Aw, I forgot the Misery from my list.

[Master Ray]

I really liked Sugar 'back in the day'... Beaster is a cracker...

I must get into Husker Du... only ever listened to Zen Arcade... where to go from their next?

Sugar's song "A Good Idea" is probably the greatest song ever made. It is also the blueprint for every single song that Nirvana made. Any lawyer could make millions bringing a suit against Nirvana for ripping off Sugar's "A Good Idea."

Please... Mr Cobain was always open and honest about ripping off The Pixies, a band he always regarded as being finer than his own...
