Don’t absolutely hate Sex On Fire tbh. Don’t like it at all, wouldn’t ever choose to listen to it, it’s just pretty cynical, bland Absolute Radio wallpaper like Snow Patrol or Stereophonics or whatever.

Wouldn’t make a list of offensive bands/songs that are just actively unpleasant to listen to, for me personally.

Weirdly played their first UK gig in my hometown at a proper dingy dive of a place. Didn’t go.

I’d like to think I can speak with some authority, being exposed to each of their records, sometimes on repeat for 8 hours a day working at HMV. Theirs is a special brew of insipid bullshit. Top Gear insert montage music for lobotomised Daily Mail readers. Unutterably dreadful, and don’t trust ANYBODY who says “their first two were great…”. No they weren’t.

They should put that on their posters

every extract I’ve seen from this book is fascinating in a similar manner.

From the sounds of things you found the band as insufferable as i found this comment

Better than KoL or RHCP.

Yknow, I’m not even sure I mean Sam and Mark. There was a similar pair of nice lads in Fame Academy, maybe one of them was called Alistair or summat

oh god you’re right, i can’t remember their names though

Lemar.

Caterwauling landfill indie faux-Southern rock shite.

1/5.

A quite shockingly poor band - musically and lyrically bereft.

Actually the Bucket is alright.

Still 1/5.

Sadly apparently not. But in all seriousness, 8 hours of any band would test your patience.
