Okay then, why don't you list a few then.

And I realize the Ting Tings are pretty mainstream in some countries, but they are part of this wave.

bloc party are good. The ting tings are like cancer on music, it's awful and I want to strangle the fuck out of her annoying voice.

Propane nightmares is ok but only if you don't tell anybody.

It's got nothing to do with them being mainstream and everything to do with them being shit. I thought TA would be one place I could go where people would have the taste not to give a shit about them. Apparently not.

I like their album. Then again, I'm known for having no taste.
