Ugh...Coldplay, Kanye West and The Smiths? Pornography at NUMBER 6??? I've got to say, that's a pretty terrible list. I guess it would be easy to write me off as a rabid Cure fanboy, but I listen to everything from 80's post-punk to dark ambient to funeral doom metal and it's plain to me that this list is terrible...having The Cure and Sun O ))) in there seems about the only thing they got right, though those two should be much, much higher up in my opinion...
At least Robert´s photo is on the icon to click to the list, which I agree is pretty stupid. But they are right with Nico (even though I find her "marble index" darker) and I would give her the Number 1. Unfortunately she never covered a Cure Song, that must have been awesome. Imagine Nico singing "Cold" ...

ReplyDeleteManics at one? Pornography at six? Only one Cure album? Joy division so low down? No Swans?

ReplyDeletePoor the NME.
Yes, I think this list can be fully explained with 3 little letters - N.M.E. : )
