Honourable mentions to Foo Fighters, Fu Manchu, Fiery Furnaces and Four Tet, but I think the best in my collection is 50 foot Wave. That qualifies right?

Fifty Foot Wave is my No. 1 too.
Also on my list are Firewater The Flaming Lips The Free French Four Tet
and I could add Franz Ferdinand, Fugazi, Gavin Friday, Ella Fitzgerald, Aretha Franklin, and The Finkelsteins.

The same, Wilhelm. Are they famous now? Their first single (titled "Is That A Golf Ball Or Did Your Face Just Go Shopping?") came out while I was in PE. It was only available from some surf gear shop at the Boardwalk, so I went and bought it, just for the hell of it. Their video was funny in a very silly way, and was filmed in PE, which made it special (I still have the file somewhere.) I guess they sound like Sum 41 or whatever band does the "skate-punk" thing, but I don't care, they were good fun.

Well I always considered "Frank Black" to be more a stage name, not a personal name. Like Frank and Black are not somebody's first and last name, it's just "Frank Black", like the name of the band, only in this case the band is only one man. So maybe Frank Black and The Catholics is in a way an "F" band? |

The Futureheads or Fugazi.
I'd say 50 Foot Wave come under the number. Their name is never spelt out. I guess they win the 50 category hands down.

If 50 Foot Wave had to go under "numbers", my choice of F band would be Firewater.
But hey have enough firepower to win both categories IMO.

Yep, they are fairly famous now. They must've been really young when they started out in PE. I saw them live a few months ago. They play the three boy punk stuff Greenday churns out.

i'm looking into the Fall, i didn't forget faith no more, or fugazi. i just don't like neither as much as Franz. Futureheads are PFG.

well, it's easier to simplify by putting him in the B's cause then where does Bowie go, D's? Dylan in the B's? Paul McCartney and Wings would remain in M because it's his real name? anyways, the only difficulty i think i'm going to have is when we get to I and iggy and the stooges are there and iggy alone is in the P's. let's classify now Iggy will be an I so as not to unfairly compete with the pixies. OK? there is an exception to every rule.

You're right. I'm just complicating things. Man, reading this post makes me realise how many excellent bands there are out there. Most of these names I've never even heard before. Who says rock is dead! I get all excited just thinking about all the great music I have yet to discover. |

I don't know about the fall...Granted, i've only heard two songs off Kurious Oranj, but neither of those songs were awesome. I'm gonna have to be a boring man and cast my vote for Fugazi and Flaming Lips and Fiery Furnaces.
And Franz Ferdinand is pretty good.
EDIT: Actually, one of those songs from Kurious Oranj WAS awesome. The Fall probably is a great F band. I just haven't heard them. They have been around forever. |
