Don't understand. What is this too much information thing you speak of? Actually, if it's too much music to listen to, limit myself to about two hours of new stuff a week. Other than that, 3 books, 77 RSS feeds, 8 magazines and 2 national newspapers a day per month seems OK. I mean, do people...

I'd say that my music taste reveals that I have a short attention span. I tend to collect types of musc and then stop when I've got a certain amount becauase I'm bored with it. I really relate to that Peel quote "I'm more interested in the record I haven't heard yet."

Is it at gig venues/clubs? Sure I remember Kurt Cobain saying he made money/got stuff picking it off the floor afterwards? Other guess...swimming pools?

So I'm a nitwit and you can't place them in context? Coldplay has little to do with them - they predate Coldplay and haven't really changed their style, just worked on their quality control. See for me Coldplay are Radiohead-lite and nothing to do with Sigur Ros. Whereas, Flying Saucer Attack...

Yeah, I've always disliked the band but the new album is great. He's finally toned down the histronics that ruined the previous albums. I guess the only thing I would say that it's probably the last iteration of the whole post-shoegaze thing. I can't see anywhere for it to go - the beatific...

Point taken about Barney's lyrics, although I would argue that although the content's a bit rubbish sometimes, he could read out a shopping list and it would emote. Morrissey's lyrics are top but that's my point, unfair or not. It's the classic boring music, interesting lyrics dichtomy - that...

That sounds brilliant. A bit like this... ...with credit to The Man Who Fell Asleep .

Hi, West London but not into Dad House, former U75 and UK.Music.alternative poster, looking for somewhere new to post. Hello flowers, hello trees, hello board...

The Smiths Vs. New Order New Order. A long time ago I posted a rant about The Smiths saying... "IMHO they represented the sort of white boy indie miserablism that was everything that was wrong with the 80's. Fuck experimentation, fuck any sesne of progression when we can whine behind our...

The audience looked kind of bemused didn't they? In answer to the original question, I guess the history of popular culture mixing with other cultures - and as this is the music forum, classical music in particular has been somewhat patchy. On one hand you have Phillip Glass remixing...
