Rock 'n' Roll pronounced dead....

This is the gospel. Although I always get slightly annoyed at myself for not having heard of them before if they're not actually a new band. But the point remains it's a total high when that happens and you realize there's this treasure trove of songs just waiting to be discovered.

Definitely with you there mate.

I especially love getting into a band that's been going for a good few years. That way you can get their entire discography, and listen to the natural evolution they would have taken. I did this with Radiohead when I first got into them, and I was -- and am to this day -- just completely fascinated by their evolution, and perpetual quality.

Great new video by another new favorite of mine, Two Door Cinema Club. Can't get the video to link though.

This is actually my first British Sea Power album, so I can't compare it to their other stuff. Loving this though. "Stunde Null" is the standout track so far... sounds like Franz Ferdinand with a rocket up their arse. Good album all round though, not heard anything quite like it.

Firing it up right now and will give a listen. Thanks for the tip lads.

It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

Thought this was of interest, singles appear to be dead for "rock and roll" type music, wonder if this will have a positive effect?

Glasvegas appear to be bringing back Rock n Roll. This thread is alive with the sound of music!

There's a bit about Kings of Leon turning down Glee, with Glee's creator calling them assholes for doing so...hmmm
