HOLE is the only group my sister and I agree on. But she’s much more into them then I am. She’s member of the HOLE message board. ---

If you really are 12, that explains how in God’s green earth you’ve never heard of Pearl Jam. Either that or you’re having us on. Either way… Oh, and my favorite bands (have to name two, there’s no way around it) are the Beatles and Nirvana. Next, **da’ cook** , you’ll tell me you’ve never heard of either of those as well. ---

They have this sort of seventies retro, silly, yet good beats sound (hmmmm…). I will check out Red Snapper, I seem to think I have heard of them before - thanks! \*\* > > What are they like? Pop, rock, rap, what? I’ve never heard of any band out of Australia but Savage Garden (ugh) and I think AC/DC is to. Well, anyway, can anyone recommend > any bands for me that are like FUEL? I don’t know where to look? Anyone? \*\* I would have to say rock, but with a lot of sampling, like Fatboy Slim…i guess you can listen to one of their songs here: [http://music.launch.com/musicvideos/player/default.asp?videoID=1081013&vo=](http://music.launch.com/musicvideos/player/default.asp?videoID=1081013&vo=) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-your-favorite-band/88014.md?page=4)
