They're a more successful, richer, more famous band who write far, far worse songs. I kinda think Travis are the 'thinking man's Coldplay' these days. Far better. Fran is twice the songwriter Chris Martin will ever be.
With Ode, Travis have jumped right back to the top of my list. Ash are the only band I'd ever have considered 'better' to my ears, but they're no more.
Ash? lol |

| I love many bands and singers but the only ones that come close to Travis are Muse, Coldplay and Radiohead. :) |

| Better... a difficult word. You could name bands like The Rolling Stones or Depeche Mode or Metallica or Amy McDonald... but you see, you can't compare them!!! It's a question of everyone's taste! And you should distinguish between the music and the band itself. So, for my taste: the music is great but there is so much good music at the moment. But the band is the best! Unbeatable! |

I completely agree. :) |

Contemporary bands that are making music now?
I can't think of any that sounds better than Travis.
Of course answers on this matter are purely subjective.

travis and coldplay are "on the same level" for me - although i think you can't compare them anymore. i just wanna say that i probably like them equally at the moment ;)
no one else comes close. there are maaany bands i like, but these two have been my favs for years now. |

Me too. You can't compare music.
It's like, I don't know, comparing different colours or something. Or shades of colours. Or something equally undefinable. We just have favourites, bands we like and bands we don't; none is definitely "better" or "worse" than another. |
