That base. Considered In The Evening as well.

Always thought it was a very throw away song.

Oh for fuck's sake

See where baseless criticism gets you; triple quote and a page turn.Â You'd want to lift your game.

Mod74

Have I ever mentioned I can't fucking stand Led Zep? That said, Immigrant Song (lest that gets repeated again) is the one I hate the least.

Kow

I'll lift your fucking game

Kow

Not liking Led Zeppelin marks you out as a cunt. It should be obligatory.

regmcfly

I can't stand led zep. Guitar wankery.

Anyway, Misshapes by pulp!

I_R

Kow

Some great lists here already, would never have thought of Search & Destroy and Sure Shot, both frickin awesome.

Just 3 from me:

Like a Rolling Stone - Highway 61 Revisited (Bob Dylan)
Straight Outta Compton - Straight Outta Compton (NWA)
Slip Inside this House - Easter Everywhere (13th Floor Elevators)

Mod74

Pulling the list together I was very close to putting not one but two Embrace tracks on it. Whatever happened to them....in the studio right now, apparently.

Embrace.

nick_md

Ah I didn't even think about funk - add a lot of opening Parliament tracks.

I'm guessing you mean Embrace the dreary, also-ran landfill indie band as opposed to the short lived proto-post hardcore/arguably-proto-emocore (not emo, emocore) band fronted by Ian MacKaye in between his stints with Minor Threat and Fugazi?

This is the closest anyone else has yet come to Search and Destroy. Good work, LD.

regmcfly

FFS my all time favourite song of all time is Beetlebum and I forgot to put that on. What a tard.

regmcfly

Larry has confirmed that his music taste is identical to mine.

Yes, the dreary chart friendly landfill indie band, which is why they didn't ultimately make it.

Mod74

Have I ever mentioned I don't really like The Clash either? For most of the same reasons I don't like Led Zep.

To many people telling me they're awesome and ace and important.

BAD on the other hand I like/d very much.

We're white bread Reginald.

Diluted Dante

You don't like them because people told you they're good?

LarryDavid

Mod don't play by the rules. He'll never conform to what they want him to.

Half that, half that when I did listen they weren't anywhere near as good as I was told they were. And yet people still go on.

Debaser - Doolittle - Pixies
Everything In Its Right Place - Kid A - Radiohead
Silence -Third - Portishead
Breadcrumb Trail - Slint - Spideland
The Rainbow - Spirit of Eden - Talk Talk

Diluted Dante

Well, because they like them. I think Yellowcard are fucking amazing and everyone should give them a listen, but that doesn't mean everyone will actually like them. If you don't I'm still going to go on about how fucking awesome they are.

I get the point that they weren't as good as billed, but it doesn't strike me as a reason for disliking them. The reason surely should be that you didn't think they were that good?

Mod74

It's not quite that easy. Yes I don't like them, but I'm stubborn enough to let people telling me I'm wrong for thinking that to like them even less.

I should say, White Riot (EDIT: And Rudie Can't Fail) is one of my all time faves. The rest is just so so.

Yossarian

Actually, thinking about it, Mojo Pin might get an honorary mention somewhere in my mind. And Debaser. Yes.

Edit: SNAP TEMPY.

Diluted Dante

Fucking hell, I forgot about Debaser

I was torn between Airbag and Everything - went with the former because of dat opening guitar.

Howdy, Stranger!
