Cast your vote thither: www.nme.com/index.php?class=rate&ratename=indieanthemsWhat does everyone reckon is worthy of this title? Personally I'd go for When the Sun Goes Down, Hey Scenesters, Time to Pretend, Time for Heroes, Can't Stand Me Now, Acrylic, f*ck Forever, Last Nite, Weak Become Heroes.....there's a lot actually! |

I might vote for the courteeners for the principal of it, but my mind is saying Bet you look good on the dancefloor.

Just looked through a few other votes, that dick from the cure is top of the best frontman ever list, and the cure are top of the best rock and roll bands ever list. More shit from the NME. I usually enjoy those lists but looking at what some loonies are voting on here I'm not happy.
P.S. When you see the picture of the enemy you will fucking laugh, they look proper stupid.

The Cure are a fantastic outfit.
I took a look at this the other day, and think it is shit. I dont like the look of the current top 20 that is for sure. I have not gone through the list but I imagine it would be quite long. It is the readers who therfore pick. It is hardly a suprise the list contains what it does but I wouldnt include half of those tracks.

Am I the only one who doesn't get what all the fuss over Sex On Fire is? No way is this in the top 20 songs of the last 8 years....nor is it that good. It's alright but its nothing on KOL's usual standard. I should listen to the new album, I've heard two tunes from it and thought they were average and bland, though I should try the whole album. Proper like the other 3 records though  |

completely agree ferg, sex on fire does have a cracking chorus like but yeah its nothing special, nothing to warrant the attention its getting. and its definitely not an anthem.

Sex on fire is good, but if you've heard all the albums then I'm sure you'll agree that the 1st is still the one to beat.
