chin dildo said:I'd probably like the Shellac and I like Nick Cave but because I am an ignoramus, I unthinkingly put the likes of Sparklehorse, Low and NMH in the category I call 'whiny shit'
Nah, none of those bands are whiny shit. Definitely not...

That was bloody hard! ask me again in half hour I'm sure I'd give you five different albums. It's like these 'top five' book, film, comedian or tv prog threads. My tastes are just to random to narrow it down to five, except on an hour to hour basis
