Artic Monkeys. They're massive in the UK, both uber cool and popular but they can barely write a tune. Still, who cares about what music sounds like, as long as they conform to the zeitgeist, right?

What do you like?
Bob Dylan, Elvis Costello, Chuck Berry, XTC, Sex Pistols, Buzzcocks (mainly with Howard Devotot), the Band, early Springsteen (up to Nebraska, plus Joad), some Doors, Television (well, Marquee Moon), etc.

I do like the Lennon/Harrison tracks on Revolver, PPM, and Rubber Soul to a degree. I also like their solo careers. Overall, though, I don't care for them at all. I could easily live without them, which isn't something I could say for other bands I'm somewhat indifferent to, like the Stones (Mick Jagger's one of the reasons many people hate rock, but damnit, "Can't You Hear Me Knockin'" is such an amazing track!).
I ain't the biggest stones fan but CYHMK is my favourite of their tunes, defnitiely. I wish they hadn't finsihed it with a 5 minute noodle though.

Mick Taylor's solo is one of the few guitar solos I can actually stand. It really makes that track. Come to think of it, it's the only real reason I dig out Sticky Fingers these days...
