I have to agree with Dan, I used to be on this list awhile back and I
come back and I've seen more about Radiohead, the Dandy Warhols (the
pompus assholes they are), and those nazis Skrewdriver than anything
relativley mod oriented! Are you sure this is "Mods"list or is this
modern rock list. It seems a mention of recent bands like the Embrooks,
Solar Flares (ever hear of them?), and the Conquerors people turn a
blind eye. Well I guess people here are more interested in Korn than
the Action or Simon Dupree & The Big Sound here. Hmmm!!!
