Surely Coldplay is the most boring band in the world?

Perhaps... but I don't mind them. Meant to be quite exciting live.

Oh, there are a host of others that my colleague persists in playing full-volume in the studio (including the likes of Coldplay). Isn't it wonderful that we are all so different though. It's those generic radio-friendly bands that make others so deliciously obscure and wonderful

I'm late to this one. Would agree with practically all of these. A blog post alone is nowhere near enough to convey the sheer staggering awfulness of Manic Street Preachers - that would take a stonking big book, which of course no one would buy. But I disagree with you about Radiohead, who frequently bung more ideas into one song than many bands manage in a career.
So I'd suggest you drop Radiohead from the list and replace them with UB40.
Glad I've got that out of my system.

I may replace Radiohead with U2 but not UB40. How can the band that wrote Rat in Mi Kitchen possibly be boring?
