I will do one for danish mainstreamers Kashmir too just for kicks, they have David Bowie and Lou Reed singing/recitating on their new album "No Balance Palace" so I thought they may seem interesting.
Band Name: Kashmir
Genre: alt. Rock for most part, they were groovy but now they are more mellow and they have a thing for Pink Floyd.
Your Rating Of Them (1-10): 8
Best Album: you can effectively seperate their career into two periods:
the humorous/slighly perverse period: Cruzential
the more mature period: The Good Life
Songs:
Best All Around:
humorous era: Vote for Dick Taid
mature era: Lampshade
Loudest/Hardest/Most Rockin': Kiss Me Goodbye
Most Relaxing: Bodmin Piil or New Years Eve
Most Played/A song by them you may have heard: none outside northern Europe I suspect, but if you have then Rocket Brothers or Graceland
Song That Best Represents The Band: Again it depends but on newer albums it might be Rocket Brothers.
Bands Like This Band: Well they are always accused of being Radiohead ripoffs which I think is bullshit. If I had to say anything I would say that they are inspired by bands like Pink Floyd but maybe are akin to bands like Elbow and even Radiohead.
Coolest Thing About This Band: they have it all, both groovy manical rockers with rappish vocals and bleeding rock melancholy. Essentially it's their distinctive change in sound that makes them interesting and I like the fact that I can listen to them both for giggles and sobbing. While I admit they are not the best band ever, they have a place in my brain
