Same here. And my friends can't understand.

Steve Miller is also a guilty pleasure.

Creedence is also a favorite and not a guilty pleasure, because I feel no guilt in loving this band.

Well said. Most of you here look down on bands that other scene's celebrate and vice vera. So, it only makes sense to address this forum with bands you would say suck.

lately, VERVE
Blur
Cut Copy
Gorillaz
Van Halen
Duran Duran
Bryan Ferry/Roxy
Groove Armada(1'st record is great, fuck everything else)
Doves
Ian Brown solo
The Samples
Goldfrapp and Ladytron (what's the ruling here)
Motley Crue
old U2
Pulp
Beta Band
OASIS, motherfuckers, OASIS!
Libertines
Junior Senior
charlatans
Helio Sequence(1'st record only)
Alpine Stars

I just threw on any british rock I may give a listen, since that is widely regarded as unacceptable here.

There should be no shame in that. The Boss is great.
