<p>The most popular artists in my year are probably Vampire Weekend, which I adore, and Example, whom I can’t stand. Without any precedent whatsoever, dubstep has styled itself as theee definitive music of British culture. I respond to that by turning up a) Joy Division b) the Beatles c) Elgar. Shut up and go home, wobble fans!</p>
<p>^ AHHH I disagree. New Order is amazing, but JOY DIVISION. Ian Curtis <3</p>
<p>Anyway, everyone at my school listens to the same music – whatever is on the popular radio station (so Rihanna, Bruno Mars, Lil Wayne, etc.) or classic rock. It’s so frustrating. I’m into the whole indie scene, so I have absolutely NO ONE to talk to when it comes to music oh well. Bands I’m listening to right now: The Smiths, M83, Fanfarlo, Los Campesinos!, Modest Mouse, My Bloody Valentine, Radiohead, Neutral Milk Hotel, Dinosaur Jr., and Yuck!</p>
<p>m83 is incredible, and the smiths are my second favorite ever behind no. but I have to stay up on hip-hop as a job requirement, so my knowledge of new wave and classic alt is all for naught )):</p>
