![Default](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
just wondering what bands people are listening to most at the moment and who your favourite bands are ?
For me Im a massive Bloc Party fan think they are top notch. Silent Alarm and A Weekend in The City are superb.
I got the Editors new album at Christmas and am very impressed with them too.
Others Im listening to a lot right now The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Killers.
And going back a little bit am a big fan of New Order, Joy Division and The Clash![Thumbs Up](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

My all time favourite has to be AC/DC, especially the Bon Scott Era. Also partial to a bit of Iron Maiden but, my tastes are far wider than that. I also like a bit of Roni Size, Amy Winehouse etc.

If you like a bit of folky, punky, Pogues mixed with the Levellers type stuff then check out Melbourne band The Go Set. They are awesome...and a great craic live.
There's a few videos of them up on YouTube and on their website www.thegoset.com.au
They play live around melbourne quite a bit and have been doing really well at various festivals this year. They'll be playing the St Kilda festival next month and Port Fairy.
They're also going to Europe later in the year and will be playing in London!
Well worth checking out...they will not disappoint![Sunglasses](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/sunglasses.gif)
Edit: You can actually find some vids at their myspace site, not their main site, but there's a link to their myspace site from the main site.
