Which artists do you now find yourself liking or admiring which you really thought you wouldn't?

Seems like I heard of some of that. I'm from the south, I'm happy to be elsewhere because of that sort.

Im relatively meh about Albarn, but I really loved the music he did for the film Reykjavik 101.

he wrote some good lyrics if you ignore that parklife/country house blip.
but i recently saw graham coxon on tps, id never really took much notice of him before, but seeing him up close and explaining where some parts used different processing, really opened my eyes and ears to his guitar playing. he used a lot of experimental techniques for little one shot blasts you hardly notice, a lot deeper than id ever go him credit for.
i think we can all agree blur were better than oasis though
