Here;s a fact for you how many weeks have the Wedding Present spent in the top 75 album chart? ? ? 20 weeks!!!!! that with 9 albums including 2 compilations that is absolutely tragic. compare with OCS 149 weeks!!!! with 5 top 10 albums including a no1 album out of thier 9 albums released. The singles chart doesn't matter or the indie charts, this is the one artists care about!!! btw I do prefer The wedding present just making a point, they are relatively obscure wot ever u say.

basically, this was a list of the biggest 80 bands ever, in terms of sales, popularity and overall achievement. but at the moment we only have 78. what i would like you to do, if you're so inclined, is pick two of the following bands, the two that you think most deserve to be on the list, and post your choices... b-52s belle and sebastian ben folds five blink-182 bluetones the eagles eels embrace gomez happy mondays inspiral carpets kiss mansun ocean colour scene queens of the stone age super furry animals tom petty & the heartbreakers the wedding present weezer

I'm late into this thread (drat!). Cannot BELIEVE nobody seems to have even mentioned the Moody Blues or Little Feat (assuming I searched correctly). Missing the Moodies out is a Greek tragedy of Olympian proportions. We're all doomed I tell you, DOOMED!!! :
