Wow, I'm amazed that you actually like two of them. I'm also surprised that you don't despise Tool and Coldplay. I actually thought you would have liked My Bloody Valentine, if anything.

I actually have a ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead vinyl. You are aware that they were basically a "scene" band when starting, right?

That's what I thought when I first heard them. They're like Smashing Pumpkins on awesome pills. What have you heard of theirs so far?
