I would love to win, would be a great christmas present

I agree. This is not "music journalism" by any standards. This is opinion, and bad ones at that. Spin has been spun.

Sweet. Here's to Beck influeincing more artists. Love that Beck.

ok well i like radiohead......i like all of there albums, as far as im concerned, they have done no wrong (so far)

Read the bottom. It was told to a reporter from Spin, asshole. Maybe you should read the whole piece first BEFORE you make a complete ass of yourself.

Good to see these bands getting some recognition on a big magazine. Hope it doesn't go unnoticed.

Thanks for all of the giveaways!

this is the perfect example of someone not having something worthwhile to write about and so they see how far they can run with a ridiculous devil's advocate argument. unless you actually feel this way... which i suppose is possible if you're smoking crack. its also yet another indicator that we are living in the age of popular music's death. i dont even know what to say besides... i disagree... STRONGLY. ps. suck it.

Nirvana didnt kill hair metal..hair metal killed hair metal..Nirvana just woke up our senses..then as "grunge" was dying off, Green Day showed up in the masses then when pop punk and ska were dying down here comes Deftones and Korn, then Kid Rock, then stepes in Coldplay and snow patrol etc etc etc...You cant give Nirvana credit for killing hair metal...its the music indeustry that kills genres.

are you guys out of your SMURFING MINDS. i never really had any bad blood with spin magazine, but now i will be telling everyone how you guys are over rated and obviously you think you can do know wrong by publishing this pathetic article on one of the most artistic original and talented bands of our generation. by even mentioning the copyright infringing COLDPLAY is an indication that the writers for your magazine are undereducated. i'm through wasting my time with you. SPIN SUX
