Bands such as The Killers, Franz Ferdinand, Interpol, Hot Hot Heat, The Hives, The Libertines, The Strokes, etc. have all been referred to as "New Wave" rock bands for their 80's pop/rock influence and their catchy tunes.
Which of these bands are you into or have you heard from? My favorite band are The Killers, but I've also listened to music from Franz Ferdinand, Interpol, and Hot Hot Heat and I'm very pleased. I think I may just get addicted to this kind of music. It's very catchy and fun and even good to dance to.

Oh yes, I love these kind of music. Something that bugs me about The Killers and Fran Ferdinand is that their lyrics does not make sense at all. Though the music is really good. The Killers are also one of my favorite bands.

I've heard of all of the ones that you've listed.
I'm only into Franz Ferdinand. Sometimes their songs get on my nerves though...They get old kind of quickly, but nonetheless, they're awesome. |

i love most of them! not much into the hives, strokes, or hot hot heat, but theyre alright. i adored franz ferdinand when they first came out, but im a bit tired of them. also this radio obsession with r brightside has taken the allure out of thekillers for me as well, but i still love them both

I love The Strokes. They remind me of the good old rock. As for the rest, I like some, but most don't interest me and get old incredibly quickly.

I don't like Interpol at all. The guys voice weirds me out.
I just downloaded some music from The Faint and Franz Ferdinand. I like.

i've only ever heard 'evil' by interpol, and i liked it a lot.
the libertines are easily one of my three 'desert island' bands, and i also love franz ferdinand and the killers |
