this letter takes up by far the most of any letter in my music collection. some of my favourites are SNFU, stone roses, suicidal tendancies, stellastarr* and of course my favourite....

SUGAR!


The waxworks were an immensely eloquent dissertation on the wonderful ordinariness of mankind.

Three "S" bands consume an enormous amount of my shelf space: Sparks, Stranglers, Super Furry Animals.

How about Stereolab, Sonic Youth, The Shins. Daisy Girl already mentioned it, but damn the Sugarcubes were great.

Stevens, Cat
Stooges
Smith, Elliott

I'd plump for the Smiths still, but Elliott would be a close runner up.

The old man might say Slayer or Sepultura.
My son might say Slipknot or System of a Down.
I think I'll go with Spoon.

Sunset Rubdown are my new favourite 'S' band, but for all time I will have to go with The Shins and Sigur Ros.

I'm seconding Carolyn's (and later Darwin's) nomination of Spoon. I guess that means I'm thirding it.

Some might say Superfriends. Not me though.

Sugar probably get my vote, though I do have a soft spot for the Sisters of Mercy.

Oh, and don't forget Soundgarden, although I wouldn't necessarily call them the best S band ever!!

The Skeletons are pretty bad-ass...

Sonic Youth is my favorite 'S' band though.
