 Super Furry Animals
 Gorky's Zygotic Mynci
 Radiohead

				  | Boo Radleys Bravecaptain
 Super Furry Animals
 Idlewild
 Suede
 
 Those are my big five faves. And the fact that four of them are still making music today makes me really happy.

 What did you think of Storytelling? I've never really got into that at all, despite liking all their other albums. Too many instrumentals, when much of their appeal is the clever lyrics...

 yeah, there were too many instrumentals for me as well, but as it was a soundtrack i think we can forgive them, plus there are still some ace tunes on it. I agree it's the clever lyrics that appeals, like the smiths really.
 
 Looking forward to the new album & DVD, although hope the change in labels/producer doesn't change them. The song titles sound ace, so thats a good start!

				  | Ay, the new Mogwai album is a thing of beauty indeed, as are those previous though they are also a lot louder in their listening. |  |

 Yeah I'm really looking forward to any new albums these guys are releasing on the "Rhoids" label.
 
 Maybe they are all real bands on the Melbourne grunge/electroclash scene. A real creepy scene.

				  | There aint a single band in the world who could release anything that I'd love unconditionally 
 To wit: Highway61 Revisited, Bees of The Left Banque, Mary Mary etc etc.
 
 However, Martin is the only person who could release an album that I'd buy without having heard any reviews or any singles.
 
 Just as well really huh?
 
 Kinks
