Spectre, you are right, M&ouml;torhead rocks. Anyone in the Kilmeister family is AOK in my book, warts and all. However, I am not sure if listening to M&ouml;torhead will make you as cool as listening to B&Ouml;C for a couple of reasons. One is that B&Ouml;C is eerie and off center, whereas M&ouml;torhead is fairly on center topically, but quite frightening stylistically. Didn't Lemmy once say that they wanted to be the kind of band that, should they move into the house next to yours , your lawn would die? The other reason is, though they also have an umlaut, it is over a lowercase letter, and so less impactful to the realm of cool. It is, however, in a correctly spelled word, so they are far far cooler in that respect than M&ouml;tley Cr&uuml;e.

(Edited because I got totally c&auml;rr&iuml;&euml;d away with the &uuml;mlauts. S&ouml;rr&yuml;.)

I like

Paul Oakenfold
BT
Rob Dougan

guess im just shit out of luck on those...

Me either. I'm pretty sure I have never heard any music of the above mentioned bands. If I did I probably changed the station in a microsecond.

Glad

I think somebody left out canada's favorite indy rapper, one Buck 65.
Another oft overlooked cool indicater would be one Herb Alpert.
And who could forget the ultimate in cool...

Oh Shit...........I thought you said the Cowsills :lol:

And now, let's go back to the classics

Rolling Stones -- Exile on Main Street

Led Zeppelin -- III

Liz Phair -- Exile in Guyville

Ben Harper -- Fight for Your Mind

De La Soul -- 3 Feet High and Rising

Im not impressed with Most of the bands either I'd even join Tophats Blue Oyster cult at least Godzilla's been around and prove it has staying power

Zepplin
Bad Co
Creeence Clearwater
etc etc etc

plus I'll confess I like Nickelback and Evanannnnecense however the hell they spell it

Believe me, Blue Oyster Cult ain't just about Godzilla and the Reaper. I know Tophat would agree, you need to hear the first three Cult albums to know what they're about.

Where I come from it's cool NOT to like what everyone else does. And what's better than being cool? From the initial list I like about three of the bands (I don't want to name them and step on any toes, not that my opinion would be that soul crushing...) And while these bands do seem to get a lot of attention around the forum...I've found that at the same time, the people here have a healthly diverse taste in music...(though a slight aversion to country, but is that so bad?) So can't we all be cool just for being here?

P.S.
fuck yeah!

Gee, I always thought I wuz cool because I listen to whatever I want and don't give a fuck if it makes a list or not...silly me

I guess I'm not cool. :mad:

Actually, that's really well said. Huzzah! You can now be cool.

(I'll just pretend like you listen to B&Ouml;C a lot and it'll be just like you really are cool too.)

ICE COLD!!!!










(sorry)

You don't listen to the Beatles? Heh, I'll be the one to say it's not just that I don't listen to the Beatles, but I just don't like them. As far as being 'cool' for listening to some of the bands on your lists. . . guess I'll never be cool, damn.

by these standards, I just plain suck...

my list:
RHCP
RATM
Nirvana - any other music forum is flooded with Nirvana
Metallica - the best metal band ever!
AC/DC
Audioslave
Pink Floyd
Ozzy
Korn
Zepplin
