These band are no better or worse than the onslaught of crap (White Stripes, The Strokes, Arcade Fire) that they tried to feed us last decade.

They are so much worse.

[K8teebug]

Their name bothers me.

I guess some people don't like popular bands.  I am guessing they tried to be popular in high school and were shunned now so now they hate all the popular bands.

the article can't be serious. Mumford and Sons and Lumineers are not from the american south.  give it up and go back to listening to grimes.  Who cancels every show she announces.

She didn't cancel at Uhall... I think...

me i'm going back to listening to "lousy" music that not enough other people listen to...  Oh what's this a new Madness record cool....  Oh wait solo album by the drummer in the Coral, even cooler... 

[vansmack]

I rather like most of the bands listed in this thread.  I don't know many of the bands Kosmo talks about, but I check them out when I get a chance.

How can you take anything serious with the first sentence like this:

"OOOHHH BOY! Let's go down to that music festival
and listen to dat der bango"

What is a bango?  

Bango (cannabis), a type of marijuana
Bango (fish), a species of fish
Pangu?"Bango" is the Korean pronunciation of Pengu, the creator in Chinese myth.
Bango plc, a supplier of mobile web payment and analytic products
Bango (music) is a music style popular at the East African Coast that fuses traditional Portuguese, Arabic influenced taarab music and local coastal bantu languages
Bango (mascot), the mascot of the National Basketball Association's Milwaukee Bucks

There were a lot of bands in the UK who wore suspenders back then.  For example, the Joboxers. And even Bananaramma wore suspenders during their first or second album. 

joboxers

I don't really care one way or the other about these types of bands.  I will say that I've heard MUCH worse on the radio.

But that article (can you call it that?) is beyond shit. 

That one song "home" by the american idol guy is pretty damn catchy though.

But did they wear suspenders AND a belt?

Oh come on Dexy's were there first and they were the biggest... everyone has seen the Come On Eileen video. (Bananarama got bigger later but once they ditched the suspenders and hooked up with Stock Aiken and Waterman)


I'm glad to see the resurgence of Dexy's Midnight Runners... a band I am truly fond of (not just fond of)
