Electroclash Its frizzled away to nothing.... what do u think will replace it as the sunday times style's "in" musical genre? I'm thinking detroit garage... Can't beat white stripes, kings of leon, etc.
pah!!!! although emo does seem to be everywehre *shudderrs* punk shouldn't be about looking pretty.... Detroit Garage
Like who the rapture? They were the hottest band this side of the tyne... but not no more The punk rivivals happened... make way for the garage revival
lol yes the strokes/stripes laid the foundations, but garage has hardly been and gone! Yeah Yeah Yeahs - faded Hives - still big The Strokes - still huge The White Stripes - argueably the biggest modern band The garage scene is by no means in its infancy - but it will be the music of this winter - that I'm sure Emo seems to be the only form of punk thats doing anything: Hot Hot Heat Braid jimmy eat world Are all doing stuff, but this post punk dfa stuff - last years news
i still like it even tho it kinda has passed over!suppose the basic electro sound is always gonna b around tho was pre + post e/clash i guess its all fashionata bollox neway!
Think electroclash as such wont be that big... electroclash seemed to be the huge amalgamation of everything (electro, punk, soft techno, garage, pop, house)... Think electroclash served it purpose it helped revive a lot of dying genres. However bands like Fischerspooner, Goldfrapp, etc. will age very rapidly. Theres nothing bollox about being a fashionista
Emo's been pretty big for a while now, Jets to Brazil, Cave In etc have been putting stuff ot for ages but can't really see it getting a lot bigger, although I'd like to see Pretty Girls Make Graves get more recognition. There is a lot of amazing punk being produced, you just have to find it - NOFX, Pennywise, Death By Stereo, Ikara Colt have all made awesome albums recently. My tip for next cool music to listen to will be stuff like Sigur Ros, already big on the underground scene, but their next album is meant to be more accessible. Not that any of you are bothered about anything I've just written!
lol kingrich off this board buttfucks sigur ros, I agree they'll be deemed cool by a select few as will mogwai, godspeed and mum... but they don't have the mass appeal that electroclash, punk and garage do. a little too alternative As for NOFX, Pennywise, etc. they're too old and established to be deemed cool And they're too punky for the DFA sound (although haven't heard any of the new albums) Punks played out.
OK Joe, I'll agree that punk may not be the next big thing, but when I get home from work I'll produce a list of bands who are gonna be 'cool' and we'll start off a new craze!
lol remember kids u heard it here first I'll do the same when I get back form town - gimme time to think
Theres still more time for the DFA!!! The Rapture will be top ten!! Morgan Giest will be rolling in it!
