Talk:Jangle pop
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hey... read the jangle pop article. Small. Very small. Which is fine... except REM wasn't the first jangle pop band, nor was it an American genre. For example, The Church, an Australian band, started out as a jangle pop band. Their first album, Of Skins and Heart, was released a year before REM's first EP (and their first single was released a year and a half before REM's first EP). Many other examples, but that's enough to prove the article invalid. Tis all... thanks.
Agreed, this barely scratches the surface of jangly pop bands...
Shouldn't The Smiths be wiht R.E.M. and the other bands on this? They are rather jangly (ex. THis Charming Man)69.249.46.86 00:08, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
This article says that jangle pop was primarily a southern and midwestern phenomenon and I question this. For starters, I have listed two bands from Boston, Mass. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sderoski (talk • contribs).
The Feelies were from New Jersey. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.197.126.242 (talk • contribs).
I certainly think that The Sundays deserve a mention.
