>implying all of that isn't heavily inspired by blues music, which originated as United States slave songs
>Gorillaz
try harder with the b8 next time
the smiths, the sex pistols, the cure, joy division, blur, gorillaz, portishead, massive attack, stone roses, depeche mode, wire, jethro tull, and belle and sebastian are all very bad. i cant stand british people's superiority complex over music especially when they've been ripping off formula's from black music and white music in the us. they do best when they're not imitating american and jamaican music
Muse, Crystal Fighters.
kek at americans who can't face the fact that other countries can be better than them at things
OP here and im actually not british.
Muse is preatty bad thou
>America lays the groundwork for literally all populat music for the next 200 years
>American music sucks. They are so bad at musicing.
>Jethro Tull is bad
It was more african music and european classical and folk than american music.
Its 2017, not 1997
oh. thought this was a bait thread but you're probably genuinely wondering why they're more influential. i think it's not true that they're more influential because
bob dylan
lou reed
the ramones
john coltrane
thelonious monk
miles davis
howlin wolf
john lee hooker
all of R&B in general
du wop and funk music
british music was big in the late 70s and up until the late 80s because of their more accessible pop spin on more bluesy american music
*steal music from the people they imprison, enslave and force to work taken from their own countries
see above
Thats true thou. Brit music died like in 2000 (except Radiohead).
inorite, if only Fantano and Pitchfork weren't so consumed by poptimism and white guilt tho
yeah remember when we stole africa's folk music?... wait
''your'' folk music is British from when we invaded and ran the place until we got bored and fobbed it off back on the local schmucks
Elvis by himself had more influence culturally and musically than any band you named and probably more than all of them combined.
"no"
do they really teach in british schools that britain let america have its independence?
yeah, aren't you lucky we were bored of your shithole
>mentioning Ramones but not Dead Kennedys
