I'm into Maximo Park, and though its just for musical reasons I'm also pleased to see north east bands come through instead of the usual areas.
As for Kaiser Chiefs I find them highly annoying, smug, not very original (though that doesnt stop me liking other bands) and not that good.

Whenever I see a band play dull "Music you can listen to with your girlfriend" I want to take the guitars off them and smash their faces in with them.l

Does your lass know you listen to music with your girlfriend?? :shock:

And can I have the CDs you can't remember who bought when your divvying up the house?? :wink:

Ta mate!!

if i see anyone in a band wearing a tie, i work on the premise they are shiit and i hate them until proven otherwise.

then you are a silly man!!!

do you dislike Maximo Park cos they is local, and have been more successful than yourself? [mind I will agree in advance with you that success is relative! :wink:

What's wrong with the Inspiral Carpets like?

I hate the fake northern accent the guy from maximo park puts on, you'd think he was a broad Geordie from the back streets of Newcastle the way he sang, he's from sodding Billingham!

Enter Shikari - band of 07!

Cowboy · **Posted:** Thu Mar 01, 2007 12:04 am

I MUST be getting old - I've never heard of most of these bands

So who says Maximo Park are from Billingham?

I've never heard of them ( not true I have heard of them, but haven't HEARD them).

Anyway according to the fount of all knowledge that is Wikipedia, only the 'hand chopping' Paul Smith is from Billog

i dont think i have ever hated a band as much as i hate maximo park, although i really really hate the kaiser chiefs as well.

Snow Patrol..................i dislike Snow Patrol immensely :evil:

I hate the way the singer pronounces certain words

Theres a verse in the song 'Run' that goes, 'And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here'

Why does he say the word 'here' like hyaaar????

What a tw@ :roll:

i saw them (snowpatrol ) supporting grandaddy a couple of years ago in newcastle and thought they were fab. a few weeks later i saw them at bar 36 in sunderland playing to about 50 people and again thought they were excellent. so i bought their album and i really liked it.

about 8 months later they were headlining festivals and had sold about a billion records. i still quite like them, they are good at what they do. but i can see where john and mick are coming from.

they sometimes wear ties tho chip...... :roll:
