Blurred Crusade I think you'll find. I went on a spending splurge after their concert and bought 4 or 5 albums and listened to them all for about the next week non stop.
About 7 years ago I think and it was at the Metro in Sydney. Small venue but was great to watch bands at.
TBF I'm pretty indie when it comes to music but I've only heard of Pavement (who are fucking awesome) Animal Collective (some absolute killer tracks) and Of Montreal (pretty cool). Side note, I reckon Pavement would be close to my top ten. 4 of their songs are some of my absolute favourites and have been for years. Here, Spit on a Stranger, Shady Lane and Cut Your Hair. EDIT- Meant to quote Rego's post about Rabbit Boys list.
I Being a sucker for storytelling albums (which is why I love The Chronicles of Solomon Quick by The Lucky Strikes and Stay Positive by The Hold Steady way more than I should), I gave it many listens. Was very disappointed, as everything sounded the same and it all just blended into one 80 minute long song. I was 9 years old when it came out and Stadium Arcadium was my first ever record, and it was those softer songs on it such as Strip My Mind, Wet Sand, She Looks To Me etc. That opened up a world of music beyond the Drop D tuning, 3 chord pop punk bands such as Sum 41 and Good Charlotte that were plentiful in the early 2000's.
1. Bad Religion-Recipe For Hate 2. The Offspring-Smash 3. Green Day-American Idiot 4. The Red Hot Chilli Peppers-Californication 5. Pink Floyd-The Wall 6. Metallica-Ride The Lightning 7. The Ramones-not sure, since I've only just gotten into them. Love them already though. 8. Shihad-Self Titled 9. Incubus (until recently)-Make Yourself 10. Weezer-Blue Album Lots of other bands could have made the last four spots. There's a lot of songs I like but no necessarily albums, which impacts on the band a bit. The Ramones rose above this because they rule.
In no order and not the top Bands of all time though. MF pretty much named that list. Arcade Fire - Funeral Band of Horses - Everything All The Time Gorillaz - Demon Days Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand Led Zeppelin - IV The Kooks - Inside In Inside Out Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Tender Prey Pink Floyd - The Wall Radiohead - OK Computer R.E.M - Automatic for the People
