Sam_b Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 I love how they're 'trying' to be a bit more 'alternative' by putting people in other than guitar-waving Borrel-lites with floppy hair and tight trousers.Thorunn Antonia (Fields)She is cool as fuck btw.

framheim Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 who are the horrors? why is someone called 'mince' in that list? when did i become out of touch? who the fuck are vincent vincent and the villains? i say we send them all a picture of jimi hendrix setting his guitar on fire to show these pasty faced ballsacks what cool really is. then we should all dress up as jimi hendrix and set the nme offices on fire.

Swingin' Ryan Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 A slight improvement on last years list but still as appalling as I would have expected. NME angers me to the point of increased blood pressure.I'm amazed it was the girl from The Gossip at number one, I would have expected Faris from The Horrors to have had that one pretty much in the bag for the last few months.There's some good choices in there, notably Jarvis Cocker, Kate Jackson, Paul Simonon and Victoria Bergman. However, it's just the classic mix of 'indie legends' and bands who sing bouncy songs about getting a Taxi at the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodyRATM Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 hey mike pattons in it. cool. who are the horror? ive never heard of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingin' Ryan Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 The Horrors are a kind of like a Garage Punk/60's Psychdelia influenced band, who due to the fact they have a very specific kind of Victorian Goth look, have attracted a mass of fans who seem to be very into their look, yet have generally no interest in the genre of music they play.

Mr.Mike Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 the very fact NME produces a cool list should be reason enough not to read that rag. it's barely fit to wipe your arse with... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.S.A Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 lily allen?!putting on a silk dress with trainers doesn't make you cool love, it makes you look like the horrible common slag you are.I really like Lily Allen, I don't think she is particularly talented but I love how she slags other bands off, which nobody else does anymore. I'm all for sexiness and bitchiness in rock 'n' roll. She has personality unlike some of her dullard male peers. Oh I think she was privately educated, so I think the common tart thing is misplaced but she does look a right dirty bitch, so I'll give you kudos for that!

trippinoneastereggs Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 NME angers me to the point of increased blood pressure..And I, but not nearly as much as the fucking braindead sheep who take it as their style bible because it's contents are trendy at the moment, who lap up its every word and listen to the bands it tells them to, dresses the way they tell them to.Fucking shite rag.

I know the nubile rock chick in the school uniform has been done to death but Lily Allen would look fucking amazing in an Albyn Girl's school uniform!

AKMartin Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 The Horrors are the ultimate "style over substance" band. Teeth-gratingly-dreadful music, nice eyeliner.It's a better list than the last two years, but it's just so bloody patronising as usual; a fat girl in at number one, the usual nods to unwashed schmindie shite ("Mince", the View, Doherty) and the odd muso choice to pretend the NME's still knows its arse from its elbow.AKM(not to mention the fact that if "Faris" is his real name, he deserves ice picks in every one of his orifices) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trippinoneastereggs Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 THis is a list of celebrities for fuck sake. I thought it was the new Musical Express, but its just heat with backcolmed hair, wearing an old Army Uniform and converse all-stars, skinny jeans and weilding a Gibson Les Paul that it doesnt know how to play, but its ok cause its the same guitar that Jimi Page uses.What this is is a list for people who are into music cause its "cool" at the moment and they cant be fucked actually going out there listening to music and making their own opinions up. Why bother when NME provides them for two quid or whatever it costs a week.Fucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psydoll Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Eugene from Gogol! Amusement registered! Nothing too shocking in there apart from maybe Patton getting a mention.The Horrors are a 'naewhere near as good' version of The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster. Word.
