Right then you miserable lot.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

You're only twenty! You shouldn't be listening to anything made before 1992 anyway. When I were a lad, no self respecting DJ would have played anything pre 1976, with the exception of Bowie, Iggy and VU. Not even as a joke. 60s TV show themes such as Thunderbirds, Stingray etc were used for the latter.
And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.

Very possibly. But I do find it disconcerting that anyone in their twenties should still be stuck on something that was 'in vogue' during their primary school years. I mean, it's like Eldritch trying to be John Lennon. Oh, hang on...

Because it suggests that:

a) There is no decent modern alternative music

or

b) Current lifestyle options are so inanely dull that you have to look to the past for inspiration

or

3) You enjoy the company drunken fools

Yes, there should have been an 'of' in there, but I think it probably works better as it is, and on a number of levels.

Take full credit, BoF!

In a way, I can understand where Francis is coming from, but then he was lucky enough to live through the dawning of the ages of great music. I think the same - I wouldn't be here otherwise - so I spend an ordinate amount of time and money on enjoying music made, yes, long before I was able to contemplate it.

Not that I'm writing off modern music; I just don't feel there's very much in the way of the leviathans of yesterday.
This may have something to do with me becoming a music journalist...
Sorry Andrew.

The only good thing I've seen in the new Millennium is Devendra Banhart, and one song by Bloc Party, that song being Banquet.

I think music and fashion generally died in the 90s.
