What is your other Musical love?

My other great Passion is Steve Hillage and System 7 Seen em 36 times, no doubt I will now be classed as a Hippy.

regardszzzzzzzzzzz

MIke

My other passion is the Cocteau Twins. Not sure what that makes me.... ;)

I also like the Cocteaus, seen em loads of times.

Have lots of TV footage I am going to put on dvd, when i have finished with the New Order stuff

MIke Pink Orange Red

Joy Division

my other faves are mainly 80"s,duran,depeche,human leauge,u2,simple minds,stone roses,happy mondays,the smiths. seen depeche 7 times ,simple minds twice. my other faves are global underground,i"ve got volumes 1-22,with many of the rare box sets, am gonne trade all the global cds,eventually.

Stone Roses, Jimi Hendrix, World of Twist, One Dove, Andrew Weatherall all IMO achieved greatness, Albeit fleetingly, in most cases.

JOY DIVISION PET SHOP BOYS DAVID BOWIE STONE ROSES HAPPY MONDAYS LED ZEPPELIN OLD OASIS THE VERVE ALICE COOPER AND MANY MORE...............;)

Smiths/Moz Lloyd Cole REM Cure Sarah McLachlan Roxy/Ferry The The Oasis

Stone Roses Inspiral Carpets REM U2 Depeche Mode Red Hot Chili Peppers Bjork The Smiths Electronic Fleetwood Mac Oasis Smashing Pumpkins

Sisters Bunnymen Banshees Cure Cocteaus Killing Joke Chameleons All the usual early eighties suspects.

Depeche Mode Stone Roses Morrisey/Smiths Jean Michel Jarre

Absolutely loads of artists... Echoboy, David Bowie, Pet Shop Boys, Queens Of The Stone Age, PJ Harvey, Cooper Temple Clause, ...could go on for ages.

Despite me being a New Order collector and having grown up with them, my favourite band is Arab Strap, but their six year history makes it a lot easier to track down their back catalogue.

Andy.

Pavement 21 shows + 2 Stephen Malkmus solo Wilco 11 shows REM's the only other band I've seen over 10 times, but that wasn't necessarily an obsession (though I like them quite a bit). It was kind of just a cool thing to do growing up in the American south in the mid-80s.

In no particular order: Jonathan Richman Lou Reed Belle and Sebastian The Clash Radiohead Elvis Costello The Cure Sex Pistols the "British Invasion" era Beatles/Lennon solo Pink Floyd The Who XTC Doves and many many more that I can't remember right now...

Originally posted by Taboo # 7 In no particular order:and many many more that I can't remember right now...

Here's a reminder: Hasselhoff, Tesh, Yanni,

Most of the bands from Manchester around the late 80s early 90s.

The Cure's the other biggie for me.

Then other random ones like the Pixies, The Clash, Sex Pistols, The Faint, and on and on.

The Triffids/David McComb The Mekons The Church The Fall Cabaret Voltaire

This is a brief list...

Kraftwerk Daft Punk The The Depeche Mode Pet Shop Boys The KLF Early Oasis Information Society Happy Mondays Stone Roses Blur Charlatans The Smiths/JM

Originally posted by World in Commotion > Originally posted by Taboo # 7> In no particular order:> > and many many more that I can't remember right now...

Here's a reminder: Hasselhoff, Tesh, Yanni,

The Chameleons REM Smiths Manic Street Preachers

Well, it all really depends upon my mood, but:

The Cure The Smiths (inc. Moz, but actually like Smiths better)

After those two, it varies. Been listening to The Clash everyday lately; before that, The Real McKenzies. Depeche Mode, The Ramones, Pet Shop Boys, Siouxsie.

The CHEMICAL BROTHERS, DAft Punk, New Order, some Dj's,Crystal Method....

Sometimes i feel....Out Of Control

Manic Street Preachers The Cure Supergrass (to a lesser degree)

http://www.geocities.com/re\_member\_music/musiccollection

I juggle between all these, but Joy Divsion and New Order are still on top of my list.

BT is pure genious when it comes to writing dance-music.

For the Swedes out there, Jävlaranamma is the best live-band in a crowded bar with lots of beer... :D

/TLV

You mean to say that other people make music as well?

:D

The Fall and Echo and the Bunnymen have been constants over the last 23 years. Velvet Underground, The Ramones, Husker Du, The Lemonheads, The Pixies, Sisters of Mercy (83/88 versions), Manics (until the crap album that ripped off the Heaven Up Here sleeve), Radiohead, The House of Love, Wedding Present, more recently The Strokes.

In brief....

Associates/Billy Mackenzie Belle & Sebastian Kraftwerk British Sea Power Paul Haig Cocteaus Chem Bros Ladytron

Originally posted by Al Jarvis Can't really get worked up about anyone else the way I can with New Order, but ACR have always been there on the backburner, and the Mondays were a big fave for a while although they've blotted their copybook somewhat over the years and I don't bother with them so much anymore. Have gone through periods of following the Fall and Orbital as well, and current faves include Kraftwerk (again, been listening to loads of their stuff recently), Ladytron, Audio Bullys and Client. Have always been a dancemuzak head though so that's been a constant feature from electro and acid house in me yoof through to watching mates play out these days.

Ooooh, that Client record is eversogood: isn't one of them the lass that used to be in virtual NewOrder tribute band 'Technique'??

Glad to see lots of namechecks for the Cocteaus: while, say, the Order, the Bunnymen, The Smiths & the Pixies (always preferred the Muses, meself) etc. are still regularly namechecked as the cream of 80s 'alternative' pop, Robin, Liz & Simon seem to have fallen by the wayside in terms of critical recognition, which is bloody scandalous, IMHO. Personally think they have plenty in common with New Order in terms of their lack of emphasis on words, numerous songs about shagging, and the foregrounding of emotion-through-abstraction. Plus Raymonde 'borrowed' Hooky's bass sound, of course!!

The Smiths and all things Morrissey... apart from Kill Uncle :D

I hear a lot of this music called "krautrock".Bands like Can, Popul Vuh, Amon Düül, Ash Ra Tempel, Cluster or Tangerine Dream. Also I'm searching for the roots of electronic music. "OHM - the early gurus of electronic music" is a very interesting compilation. I think neworder is by far the poppiest sound i listen to. AND IT'S THE BEST !! + !!!

So you hate Joy Division like all The Smiths' fans

I didnt know all Smiths fans hated Joy Division. There you go, you learn something new every day. Thats my lot, screw spending all day studying

I've never heard this before. Must be a Brazilian thing?

I imagine it must stem from Dame Stephen's own venomous sideswipes at Joy Division. All disco is vile, dontcha know, even death disco. The uber-bitch couldn't leave it there, of course: we all know how rude he was when Johnny ran away with Barney and they started playing with electronic toys together. Why, he was positively vile!!

Yes,it is

Supposed wise Al

My imagination is very realistic

not so sure about smiths fans hating jd.. my only link is when the royal court was inundated with smiths fans for the manchester with love gig. they seemed to like the order and even stayed out of the bar for the falls set !!!! ( sorry tim only joking )

Smashing Pumpkins (though not Zwan) The Cure Pet Shop Boys (up until "Release")

Grateful Dead Neil Young The Clash Bowie (Scary Monsters last good album) The Cure House of Largest Sizes (H.O.L.S.) Love&Rockets bluegrass

Underworld, Pet Shop Boys, Depeche Mode, Orbital, Oliver Lieb, Coldcut, Sonny Rollins, Roots Manuva, Radiohead, Freezepop, DJ Shadow, DJ Krush, Ladytron, The Postal Service, The Orb, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, BT, Erasure, lots of "electroclash" people.

in no particular order:

The The The Cranes Cocteau Twins James The Smiths Wolfsheim Peter Gabriel Die Ärzte Tanya Donelly/Belly/Throwing Muses ...

New Order have been my one constant for the last 20 years. I've had a passing interest in the following bands as well but most of them only had a brief run before they called it quits or slid back in mediocrity:

Wedding Present (especially their records from 1989-1992) The Ocean Blue (Not their early stuff but the later "See" and "Davy Jones Locker") Adorable (also more recently, Polak) Smoking Popes (especially "Destination Failure") Early Wild Swans (especially the new release of demos and radio sessions from Renascent) Ian McCulloch (The first two solo albums and the live shows) Housemartins (as long as you exclude the dreadful "Caravan of Love" single) Lloyd Cole and the Commotions (but not Lloyd's solo albums where he somehow lost his mojo) Miles Hunt (especially the acoustic shows) James Groundwell and Ned's Atomic Dustbin (but not Ned's first album) Pixies And for my Brazilian friends I've always really liked Legiao Urbana no matter what anyone else thinks.

I have only heard 7 of these groups so VERY different.

Velvet Underground/Lou Reed The Doors Stone Roses Happy Mondays

Originally posted by John Sludden Velvet Underground/Lou ReedThe DoorsStone RosesHappy Mondays

Great choices there. I'm a big fan of all four. I even met Lou Reed once in person and got him to sign my copy of "Metal Machine Music". You bet he gave me dirty looks.

Some great choices been made. I'm a little surprised no-one has mentioned Durutti Column, but you can't have everything...

I am going to post that end of year poll I mentioned a few weeks ago this week, so it's good that everyone's thinking about stuff to vote for.

Anyone else like Interpol by the way?

Being from the Antipodies, I really love the Headless Chickens. Their early stuff is $$%%^&& Amazing. Has the same intensity of JD with the technology of NO.

Being able to see them live, for me, almost makes up for not ever seeing JD.

Originally posted by death of art Anyone else like Interpol by the way?

Yep.

Clash, Massive Attack and (ahem) Cure. And maybe REM. But none compare to NO at their peak.

Most of my friends at home happen to like those bands, although, personally, I think Kittie is overrated.

In alphabetical order:

Asian Dub Foundation Black Rebel Motorcycle Club Buzzcocks Catatonia Clash Deus DJ Shadow/UNKLE Happy Mondays James Jane's Addiction Manic street preachers Orbital Pixies Radiohead Smiths Stone Roses Stranglers Underworld

Thank god my dad owns a record store... This way I get everything for free :D (well, almost free )

Scary list! Although I really like Life of Agony, Rammstein and NIN, stuff like Slayer and Children of Bodom scare the hell out of me! The only other heavy band I can take is Sepultura (because of their great guitarwork) but that's pushing it now...

My list of favourites other than NO/JD goes like this:

Wire Chemical Brothers Chicane Curve Lloyd Cole and the Commotions The Smiths The Sisters of Mercy The Jesus and Mary Chain

all of them in no particular order: Joy Division U2 Talking Heads The Cure Echo & The Bunnymen The Waterboys Simple Minds Prince Radio 4 Lloyd Cole & The Commotions The Nits The Smiths The Sound Depeche Mode All About Eve The Housemartins The Clash Big Audio Dynamite Coldplay (only the 1st album) Deacon Blue Enya Interpol Colder Everything But The Girl Love And Money Rainbirds (deutsch band) Prefab Sprout This Mortal Coil Clan of Xymox ... i have to stop here before this one gets too long ...

New Order are by far the band I've seen the most, but others I really like are:

REM Radiohead Doves Massive Attack Neil Young Bjork Talking Heads (great new box set from them just out)

From New Order as catalyst to finding Messers Peel and Walters… joydivision, sisters, bunnymen, fadgadget, cocteaus… most of 4ad up to Bettie Serveert, Joni Mitchell, Jimmy Cliff, Primal Scream, Sabres/2 Lone Swordsmen & Sabres/Sabrettes label, Autechre, Aphex Twin, GodspeedYouBlackEmperor & offshoots, Bowie, Hendrix, Velvet Underground, Suicide, Kraftwerk, Sonic Youth, Swans, Big Black, PJ Harvey, Smog, Birthday Party/Nick Cave, Manics, Jesus and Mary Chain, Tortoise, the Fall, underground resistance, Aux88, Basic Channel, Tricky, massive attack, portishead, bjork, my bloody valentine, cassandra wilson all currently on heavy rotation.
