With a large population as London has you'd expect great artists, the North-West's hit rateis larger i'd say. And the fact that Kate Nash and Lily Allen have put me off Londoners somewhat

Madness wins it for me.
Camden Town
And if you call it the N-W you have to take in the S-E for its entirity too.
Ok lets include the whole north east of the USA then as well. Or how about the west/mid west. We'll throw all te scandinavian countries as one city too. That should liven things up.

Killer list that, but i think The Mars Volta are from Texas. But Tool and Janes Addiction make that list look great

LA raises an interesting point.
Does a city get credit for the bands from whom their artists aren't from there originally?
I mean none of Guns N Roses originals members were from LA
Jim Morrison/Ray Manzarek
Glen Frey/Don Henley
Anthony Kiedis/Flea
Lars Ulrich
Eddie Van Halen
Chris Cornell
And so on...
Does London get to claim the Rolling Stones even though they are from Dartford in Kent?

Why are joy division and new order listed like they're the same band and or interchangeable
the happy mondays, oasis and the verve suck testicles.I rate the smiths, stone roses, chemical brothers and joy division from your list but i would not call manchester the greatest musical city in the world. Man what about new orleans and some of the other yanky doodle cities that created blues and rock n roll.

[Sigh] You have a lot to learn nicky. When the great man hung himself, the band changed their name, and New Order was born. (Nodding head in disapproval.) I expected you to know that.Why are joy division and new order listed like they're the same band and or interchangeable

Hence the name change. Der.
No way would i say the bands are close. Once ian curtis died so did joy division. I do not CARE what the other band members went on to do.
Seattle in the 90's was the place to be baby.

NO, THEY WERE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME BAND. THEY WERE ALL THE SAME MEMBERS, AND THEY DIDN'T REPLACE IAN WITH A SINGER FROM ANOTHER BAND. SO NICKY, THEY WERE EXACTLY THE SAME BAND JUST WITHOUT IAN. GO AWAY, AND DO NOT QUOTE ME ANYMORE. IT'S REALLY ANNOYING NOW.YEAH SO THEY'RE HARDLY THE SAME BAND, HENCE MY INITIAL POINT. My god you're draining.

Oasis suck and you rate the chemical brothers? You sir, are an idiot.

I second that one champ.
Oasis and The Verve do not suck. Nicky couldn't even name a Verve song, let alone an album. But if she can manage that extraordinary feat, she will probably go on to say they are a one song band. That would really be funny.
I rate the Chemical Brothers very highly indeed and would be disappointed if you considered me an idiot for that Sir

I think you'll find she is a girl, so sir is inappropiate i would imagine.
I wonder what she thinks of Noel Gallagher's chemical brother guest vocals.
He..she..whatever. You're still a goober.
