Alan_R Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I've noticed over a number of threads that there seems to be a wide diversity of music tastes among kickbackers, as you would expect I guess. I've noticed at least one person with a Biffy avatar- good taste So post 5 bands that define your music taste: -Biffy Clyro -Reuben -Muse -Hundred Reasons -Million Dead (btw I do like some dance, pop, acoustic as well but they are easily my 5 favourite bands) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to get on your back incessantly like a few others have done, but Keane are the utter pits, a duller yet somehow more grating version of Coldplay. FWIW, mines are: - Joy Division - Doves - Oasis - Supergrass - Radiohead Slightly biased towards one city but Manc bands have produced some music (there are many others from there I could have mentioned).

Jamboross Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Alexisonfire (I'm going to include Dallas Green's solo stuff in there too, even though it sounds entirely different) Capdown Jimmy Eat World The King Blues New Found Glory I like a hell of a lot of other stuff too, varying from classical to thrash metal to drum 'n' bass, but those five probably define the type of bands I listen to the most. -Million Dead Have you ever listened to Frank Turner's solo album?

Wattie Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Good call, they others though I only got into CH a couple of years ago but I can't get enough of it now. Tbh man, I could listen to anything that was on your list and own albums by most of them. I've got pretty broad tastes but mostly listen to music along the lines I've stated. I ****ing hate The Killers and other such homo bands though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
