I really don't understand the obsession with Enter Shikari. I just think they are really, really rubbish.

Lostprophets well and truly are the best band ever and I love them. I hope they win both the awards they were nominated for. I can't wait for their next album!

I dont get how people dont like ENTER SHIKARI! i mean. yeah...two of them are hot but also. the music is great. I am seeing them for the second time in southampton this October. THEY ROCK LIVE!

I HAVE heard Enter Shikari. I was dragged against my will to one of their shows and they ARE rubbish. So, that is how someone can't like them. I just bloody don't. I have never really liked trance and adding it to rock doesn't make it better. Sorry that pisses people off. It's just my opinion and I'm allowed to say it. Get over it.

Posted by Albertarose | August 13, 2007 7:40 PM | Reply to this

omg i hav been 2 two of there shows and CANT WAIT to see them again the music is amazing and omfg do they get the crowd goin i love them totally individual

Posted by emilyyyy | August 13, 2007 8:28 PM | Reply to this

Why have they only been nominated for one award. They're amazing. And Ryan Ross is the sexx :)

Posted by Ellsee! | August 14, 2007 12:05 PM | Reply to this

It's already been done, far far better, by the following:

Chemlab
Ministry
Pitchshifter
KMFDM
Fear Factory
Red Harvest
NIN
Cubanate

Now fuck off and get a haircut.

Posted by jessica | August 14, 2007 10:20 PM | Reply to this

Is there any of these forums where MCR do not get mentioned. Am sick an tired of hearing about them now I really am. As soon as someone mentions them its they suck, no they dont, they suck, no they dont, they suck

Can we have a dedicated forum please Mr Kerrang where all the people that want to say they love MCR and all the people that say they suck can go to and not annoy the rest of us that want to discuss the actual topic!!!!!!

Its like a broken record now. Agree to Disagree FFS

Shut the fuck up.
People have their own opinions on everything even the bands they like.
So don't fucking go and put down a person by saying that the band they like best sucks.
That's just plain rude, I don't like rude people.
I personally love FOB.
