Yes another one, these wont be every day but I just felt like doing this today before bed. I was going to do prog rock, but im not so into that today. I will do it next time though. I like the manic street preachers and the psychedelic furs the most.

I am actually going vaguelly mainstream here, these bands are well were at least pretty popular. Except The Levellers who were bigger in Europe but not America.

Joy Division. Since I heard The Killers version of "Shadoplay" I began listening to Joy Division, and they're pretty cool.

Plenty of GS users are "American". Does that mean we are not cool because we don't know them or that we are not cool because we are "American"? Or both?:P

Manic Street Preachers, by far. The Holy Bible is one of the very best albums I've ever heard

I am shocked at the amount of people claiming they haven't even heard of these bands.

Yep, I've listened to it. It is pretty good. I liked that they used some of Richey's old lyrics. I'm a big Richey fan. :oops:

you could alter it slightly to a "best mancunian band" poll with bands like Joy Division, The Fall, The Smiths, The Stone Roses, Puressence, The Chameleons, Buzzcocks, Magazine etc etc. At least that way the line-up would be related.:P

The remaining members started a new band called New Order. It turned out just as good as (I'd say better than) Joy Division.

I think they just mutated into New Order, which, as far as I'm concerned, wasn't a bad thing. I'm not keen on all their stuff but Crystal is a great song.

I prefer The Psychedelic Furs of the ones on the list, they're a nice little band.
