hasn't the 10's been done a couple of years ago?
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Take me down, to the underground
Won't you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life

Nice to see Schizofrantik on yours as well! Underrated band

Must have been before I joined cause I don't remember that. In any case, I think it'd still be interesting to see if people's tastes have changed in the mean time.

For a moment I was wondering why multiple people had included the Future Kings of England in their list until I remembered that they're not the same band as the Future Sound of London
