Me And The Moon Car:

--- Quote from: Yasser ---
--- Quote from: Me And The Moon Car ---MTV2 was much better when it was just a twenty-four-hour broadcast of music you get on the programme 120 Minutes (without any adverts!). 90% of my early music-buying was influenced from it when I was younger. Bands like Mylo, Spacemen 3, Clinic, David Byrne, Loud Reed, Mogwai, My Bloody Valentine, Flying Saucer Attack... none of whom you see on MTV2 nowadays. Mores the pity!

When did My Bloody Valentine and Mogwai get played on mtv2? and which songs?
--- End quote ---


A few years ago I saw the video to Lose My Breath (very strange video) and Stanley Kubrick (even stranger). Seeing these videos is what got me into My Bloody valentine and Mogwai in the first place (I hadn't even heard of them before that). I caught 120 Minutes quite recently too and saw the cartoony Hunted by a Freak. very cool.

saturnine1979:
I have to thank MTV2 for getting me into indie a few years ago. I used to watch Subterranean every Friday night with a pen and paper, writing down artists to check out.

I got into a lot of bands because of that show.

I haven't watched it in about a year, though. From what I've read, it's gone to crap. Oh well.

He is MTV2 spawn.

I would like to apologise on behalf of the New Zealand people for Zane Lowe. If you ever get the chance to hear his band Breaks Co-op don't. They suck. Pathetic Acoustic Warbling Co-op, more like.

Oerdin:
I never really got into MTV because they never seemed to play anything but what the record companies payed them to play.  VH1 has a little more variety but not much thus I was left with independent radio or show's like NPR's All Song's Considered.  I'm lucky that I live in a city where all of the radio stations haven't been bought by the multinational corporations so you can still find stations which don't have play lists with the same 25 songs.
