Then how do you know it's shit? I rather like the inclusion of the two bands with bass players named Kim (Gordon, Sonic Youth; Deal, Pixies). What I saw were some of the albums that are repetitively mentioned as huge influences. Problem in making such a list: whom, where, and when did the artist influence? Were they leaders of their contemporaries, or did they trailblaze and only have followers years after their demise? Did they influence the American scene, the British scene, both? And trickiest of all: how did they influence individual fans? Because even music critics and the like who vote for these polls are at heart at least fans of some music (even if they never say who they *like* ;-) ) and some of them are also musicians (though obviously not good ones or they wouldn't be music critics!). - --Am ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2002 16:46:08 -0500 From: Red Subject: Re: seven-seas digest ''Jake Brockman-Drake'' At 04:13 PM 11/20/02 +0000, you wrote: >Or even James Drake-Brockman.

Furs, Depeche Mode, EATB, and the Sound, . Now Daydream nation is a great album, but #1? Hell, I want to make my own list, one that gives all styles a fair shake, from punk, post-punk, goth, ska, new wave, more of a democratic list rather than just the darlings of the American underground.
