They’re okay but they are so overblown by MTV and so called music press.

Can someone explain ‘bedwetting music’ for me, please? Because it always seemed to be the same old “oh, it doesn’t rock!!!!!” tripe in disguise to me.

The old bedwetting thing came from Malcolm McClaren who meant that rock music these days seems to be made by dull University students (Radiohead) rather than working class futureless music fans (Wildhearts). I don’t think the actual music was his target, more the nonce’s that perform it.

First couple of albums have their moments, but the new songs that I’ve heard have been so dull. They come on the radio or TV and I forget they’re on. My attention just drifts away.

I know what you mean. I would like to like them i just…can’t! It really annoys me as well that the acoustic guitar is now all but associated with dreary heartfelt ballads in our society. Acoustic guitar can be fun, but thanks to Coldplay and their ilk there are thousands of dreary young men just like them writing dreary songs about not very much at all! Someone write an acoustic guitar song thats exciting!

What a ridiculous comment.
I love Gold, anyway. It’s a stupid, stupid song, but the chorus melody always gets me. I think it might be nostalgia, mind.

Ridiculous maybe, true definitely! Its cringeworthy! I just think stock aitken waterman, NKOTB, bananarama, bros,etc etc. Its awful. The rock and indie scenes were good though.

99 Red Balloons was a great 80’s tune but thats the only one i can think of! Thank God for thrash metal being invented!
