I know that some people hate them but they are talented musicians and good people who always do their job as honestly as they can. I'm probably biased because I've been a fan for over 10 years but I will always defend them because they deserve it(and no, I don't have a crush on Kelly).
I'm going to defend them too cos I've been a fan for ages too! I do have a crush on Kelly Jones! |

Stereophonics rock.
I'm going to see them in Dundee at the end of the month.
Can't wait.
It is a good song, and the othersi've heard from the new album I think after a few listens will be just as good as some of there more famous hits. |

I was watching them on channel 4 yesterday, and given that I hadn't heard any of them speak before, it was nice to hear the Welsh accents flowing out. Like when I first heard Fran et al speaking Scottishly.
Anyways, I'm going to be watching their new album closely as a maybe-buy. Sorry, Dubz, but we can't all rant about the same things :) |

A litle pedantic, it's about the music not the title, well for me anyway.

*edit* Alo I noticed that none of The Stereophonic "fans" picked up on that :P |

Haha no need to apologise, that's your opinion, I may not agree with you... but that doesn't mean you don't have the right to say it. And who knows I could be proved wrong ;) (although I very much doubt it, hehe)

Lol, do you ever agree? It's far too easy! ;)
I doubt it too, and you'd never admit it :) |

I don't know about the others but I had noticed, I just didn't want to come across as pedantic by correcting you :) |

Lol, excuses, excuses...
I thought you were being funny and making fun of the title, but I didn't know it was wrong before I read the rest :s
All it proves is that, as you say, you aren't a fan. |

I was only pissing about anyways.
Stereophonics started off brilliantly, 2nd album wasn't quite as good but was decent enough. The 3rd one I hated, though I didn't give it much of a chance. The rest have been ok, but I tend to get bored of them pretty quickly. |

I have the Stereophonics pigeon holed in my "Why the Hell do they still exist?!" category. They seem to have stopped trying to offer up anything of artistic merit and are just turning up for the paycheck and the free bubbly at showbiz parties. If they had a normal job they'd have been sacked for "Absentee-ism" around 4 years ago.
Other bands in this category are Shed 7 and The Charlatans. |

I loved the Stereophonics at first but have been going off them more ever since! I don't think I've liked one of their songs for about 8 yrs.
Useless fact - somebody who I went to uni with reckoned their dad was Kelly Jones' babysitter. He may have been lying though. |
