DiggsUK Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Nowhere - I thought Liam was (and still is) a knob, and Mr Allbran was too 'mockney' for my taste. Funny how personality can affect how you see a band. No mention for the mighty Shed7 yet? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiggsUK Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 I guess it is a man thing Invisible, but most of us don't like too much arrogance with our eyebrows. EA, I have often thought our tastes coincide. Now, does my bum look big in this? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenny Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Hi Levi's. Try these: Collective Soul--"The World I Know", "Gel", "Shine" Sublime - "What I Got", "Wrong Way", "Santeria" Live - The album "Throwing Copper" I like a lot of the dance stuff from the '90s, too. I'll have to fish out a couple of compilation CD's I have and get back to you..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 White town - Your woman I heard this one yesterday and also last week... one of those memory bringers! da daa dadaa da dadaa da dadaa Another band that I remember from the 90s (cuz I was older when it came out) and became a massive fan of is Kula Shaker. During my exams some 4 years ago my mom told me to recite the Gayatri Mantra to help me concentrate. I didn't want to go through the effort so instead I decided to try out this one band I remebered from the later 90s that did this kinda thing and a Kula fixation was born! I tried another similar band recently and barring one song, it sucked! And I think 'Island in the Sun' by Weezer is so cute!!! Have you seen the baby animals video?

SoulGirl Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 SUCH GREAT SONGS!! the nineties rocked really, when you think of it! i can't even think of anything that hasn't already been mentioned, wish so much i had all these songs! btw i was a blur girl and argued so much with one of my best friends who loved oasis about it! (actually it was more of a damon -v- liam argument... we were hormonal twelve year old girls!). but i loved and still love both bands' music!

DrCowbell Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 Has anyoe mentioned Ned's Atomic Dustbin yet? I had a very soft spot for "Grey Cells Green." Also in that same vein, Jesus Jones "Right Here Right Now" Material Issue "Diane". There was Liz Phair with Supernova, Local H had a good song with "Copacetic (Bound for the Ground)" Harvey Danger had a good song called "Flagpole Sitta," Primus had "Jerry Was a Racecar Driver..." there are tons I am remembering but I wonder if I am hitting the mark for you or completely missing it!

Jenny Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 They had an album out last year, Laurie. They had a single from it called "Better Now" that I was really into, and I believe they released another one, more mellow, but the name of that one escapes me.

blind-fitter Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 I like Rusty Cage too, but it didn't make my "cut", partly because my system for selection was flawed, causing some "essentials" to be overlooked. But as Daslied points out "Jesus Christ Pose" is just about as heavy as it gets. I'm not normally such a "heavy rock" fan, but I can distinctly recall the circumstances in which I first heard this song, and being totally awestruck by its immensity. A masterpiece of its kind.
