[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Dec-10-00 AT 02:41AM (GMT)[p]Hello NMA board!!! HappySuitcase Man here, withdrawing from my daily depressions, to break through with some extra-annoying hyper-activeness. I’d first like to apologize for something a long time ago… 50 points if you can remember.

So, to make up for what I did, I’ve decided to heal some old, already scabbed-up and remedied wounds with the one thing that brings people together. Peace? Not likely! Love? Overrated! Can’t guess? Music, Dammit! Especially if it’s loud and makes massive crowds riot and destroy things. Was I being sarcastic? You be the judge. So, I decided to fix something with the one thing that broke it in the first place. What is it? Lists! (If annoyed by my constant use of answering my own questions, scream really loud). For the people who remember my “Four Posts of Glory” on the Unwashed Villagers board, you’ll find out that in my downtime, I’ve starting listening to the music of the non-sixties (a decade I never knew), put on the CD’s of British Alternative Music, and to tell you the truth, it warped my fragile little mind. Without further ado… my musical list (which are in my opinion):

Top 5 Alternative (non-mainstream in U.S… Sorry Nirvana) Bands

1. Joy Division
2. Dead Kennedys
3. The Cure

Top 10 Bands

2. The Rolling Stones
3. The Who

9. The Sex Pistols
10. Nirvana

Green Day is a great band,though they're really more of a punk rock group than an alternative rock group(In my opinion though, the difference between the two genres is slim). Do you like them?
 
looking at all the great bands out there it is impossible to name them all. But among the the groups or artists i like id like to say Beck is the rockingest Alternative act out there. hes so different so creative so fun. Beck baby!

I don`t care about dead kennedys, but the rest was great.I spent my highschool years listening to 1. 3. and 5. ( i know, i`m an old rag) and radioheah still amaze me whenever i heard their albums.
Alternative nowadays is too common as a label, beck is mainstream, but mainstream at it`s best, he`s brilliant, most of you guys are too young to remember this but he`s having the same criative impact on music prince had in the early eighties, before he changed to the, err, thing he`s now.


You could be my main man, happysuitcase, if you hadn`t placed gun`s & roses, beatles and nirvana in there ( don`t get me wrong, i like nirvana, just grow a bit tired of them, wich didn`t happened with the others).

Well, cool list :7

And then I said...

Green Day had some really cool songs, "Longview" being my favorite.
