DMN randomly ranks his favorite British bands

[Nerf]

Urgh, The Smiths. Their only contribution was writing awful, depressing, cliché lyrics that for some reason people (Jouzy) think are genius.

[METALMAN]

Oh come on Nerficles. I don't barge around the place saying Motley Croo are awful. :/

Really?

And yeah, Motley Crue suck, yet you love them, and we let you love them. Leave The Smiths alone.

[METALMAN]

Saying things are cliché is clichéd.

I actually quite like Motley Crue

I am mocked relentlessly for liking Motley Crue!

As you should be, Nerf.

As you should be.

Rudie and White Man are awfully good. Despite what i said about the Clash before, I never tire of those two.

Anyway...my five:

Beatles at #1. Really obvious, but I cant see past them. The other four? Let's say the Rolling Stones, the Smiths, David Bowie & the Who. These aren't necessarily my favourites - I've tried to be a bit objective, and all five have certainly made a meaningful and lasting contribution.

Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, Cream are vastly important and also deserve a mention.

Man, Deep Purple had some really cool shit in the early 70s. Black Night, Speed King, and Fireball are great heavy acid rock jams, I love that type of shit from the late 60s and early 70s. Or Space Trucking? It just makes you want to do drugs. Well maybe not you, but other people.
