....?

I am willing to bet none - they are all 'underground' bands. So are Sonic Youth.

For you to dub anything that isn't featured on Radio One everyday or in the Sun week in week out as 'pish' is fucking ignorant at best.

If I were to come along and say that all 'rap' was 'shite' without having a clue about the music I would be laughed off the board. (I wouldn't do that anyway, cos I like a load of rap stuff)

Wondah Vocal, like it or not YOUR music is 'underground' - no-one has heard of you and you aren't troubling the charts (or even A&R men) - does that mean you are 'pish'??

Think before you mouth off, you Tayside Gangsta.
