Ah I never bought into their "attitude" or anything like that, and Townsend is bloody overrated... tell you what though Keith Moon was a legend. My uncle was in a band with him years ago in fact...

Anyway how about adding Tom Waits to the list? Not many people dish him a slagging... Although I've got Rain Dogs and I can't get into it at all...

The Who I've got issues with too, but you don't often hear Joy Division slated amongst those who enjoy "stuff in the general rock / indie genre".

I thought that the Violent Femmes first album also fell into the undisputable category, but recall having been slagged off for playing it round someone's house one evening by some kid who just wanted to listen to the Strokes the whole time. The Modern Lovers first album should be on there - although Jonathan Richman has done plenty of questionable things since...

Half Man Half Biscuit, anyone?

Yep I'm with a couple of recent posts. Not sure if 60s Motown counts as rock but I'd have serious questions about someone's taste if there wasn't something there they liked.

Joy Division seem to have acceptance now that's odd. At the time, I was a 6th former at school and most of the other kids (who were all into heavy, prog or funk) ridiculed me for liking this "miserable" band.

Ah Leonard Cohen gets too lampooned to be on the list if you ask me, the fact that he's so uncommonly miserable tends to raise just as many sniggers as beams of approval... Also, I think many people take issue with his rather, shall we say... unique view of women... certainly wouldn't be up there on any feminist essential listening...

So Lenny's out too then. Goodness me. I'm not necessarily removing the ones Bobo slagged off as he isn't really an indie-kid so his views are therefore less important (heh heh).

I think I'll add Massive Attack and the Cocteau Twins if no one objects.

Anyway, the list nears completion. Soon I shall declare an end to all updates and the list will then be sent to a stonemason who will carve the names of the acts on a 10-ft high slab of marble which will then be displayed in a prominent place for all eternity (ideally opposite Bobo's house where he will have to look at it every day).

Ah some of his lyrics can seem to present a bit of an objectified view, I think I've heard argued. For example, "she says, "I guess you call this love"; I call it service" and "I sang my songs, I told my lies, to lie between your matchless thighs" from New Skin for the Old Ceremony can be taken as such I suppose... Dunno if he's being genuine though, it's more than likely his wickedly dry sense of humour that people tend to ignore when analysing his words...
