    We all know that all arguments about which band is better are rather silly. THe defence on the grounds of music is probably the silliest.

    If we want our bands to be great musicians then surely we should all be listening to Floyd and Zeppelin.
    It isn't particularly simple by the standard of rock or pop. I don't know why you are setting the basic bar of musicianship or composition arrangements at the level of prog rock - that is absurd.

    Foxton is a better bassist than most anyway. Thunderous riffs on such as Tube Station and Eating Trifles.

    'Thunderous riffs'? There speaks a man whose musical lexicon was heavily shaped by the NME.

    Coming from the man with sub-Paul Morley wallpaper.

    I always wondered what that sort of thing was supposed to mean.

    The bass on Tube Station is pretty good. But it is surely the vocal and lyrics that makes that song what it is.

    I'm not knocking them. I mean, one painter and decorator may be inherently better than another but you dont give them the keys to the Sistine Chapel.

    If you are attracted to a band because of their bass player then there is either something seriously wrong with you or the rest of the band are ****ing awful. In this case it seems to be a little from column A, a little from column B
