hahaha yikes. Franz Ferdinand especially was one of those shitty bands trying to capitalize on the "retro rival" craze of the early 2000's. Theres literally no redeeming quality in their music.

FF is just as gimmicky as KISS but kiss had the originality and showmanship to back it up.

Coldplay is about as hip a your mom. In fact, our generations moms listen to coldplay. Not even close to being almost hipster shit.

I haven't really given Arctic Monkeys much of a chance, but everything I have checked out from them sounds like generic, rehashed dregg

Their latest album is better than anything Weezer and Kiss ever released

Franz Ferdinald is about as dudecore as you can get. " I want you to Take me out!"

No you don't know what dudecore is. Take me out is a great fucking pop song and one of those rare moments in my conscious life time where something on the radio was actually good.

I have no idea what a "dude-core" band is. I'd assume it's the kind of cock rock dregg that a novelty band like FF puts out.

Heres the lyrics to their biggest hit:

"When I woke up tonight, I said I'm
Gonna make somebody love me
I'm gonna make somebody love me
And now I know , now I know, now I know
I know that it's you
You lucky, lucky, You're so lucky!

Well, Do you, do you, do you wanna?
Well, do you, do you, do you wanna?
Wanna go where I've never let you before?

Well, Do you, do you, do you wanna?
Well, do you, do you, do you wanna?
Wanna go where I've never let you before?"

Typical braindead cock-rock nonsense

"I say don't you know?
You say you don't know
I say take me out

If I wane, this can die
If I wane, this can die
I want you to take me out

If I move, this could die
If eyes move, this could die
Come on, take me out"

Total typical brain-dead, cock-rock chorus

Cock rock is not music based around pop hooks and dance beats

Sure it is, it's all about the content of the lyrics.

And I mean not that it really matters, but you took their most purposely written party pop songs that get radio play. They're great songs but not for having poetic lyrics.

They do have songs with smarter lyrics written in a more poetic style though

No, cock rock is given to bands based around testosterone and heavy guitars.

Franz Ferdinand is post-punk. I feel like I've tried to explain to you what post-punk is before....

So they just put on a cock-rock front to get fans? Bunk.

Listen man, they're just a terrible, terrible band who came out trying to milk that whole retro-revival scene that featured The Hives, The Strokes, Jet and all of those other shitty bands.

Franz Ferdinands whole stick is their retro-rock with their testosterone driven lyrics. It's cock-rock as it gets. Just because it doesn't have "heavy guitars" doesn't mean it's not cock rock.

You're not old enough to realize that FF was just a trendy band, put together strictly to capitalize on a fad. It's why they're pretty much unheard of nowadays.

I mean, granted, theres been good knock-off bands in the past.... But to be a retro-revival knockoff band is pretty shitty.

If you're into the whole retro-revival thing, you may as well listen to the bands that first made it big doing that schtick... Not the shitty knock offs

The Hives aren't great, but they did the schtick first and they don't have cock-rock lyrics
