Most of my favourites from when i was a teenager are either still going (Swervedriver, Charlatans) or have already had a comeback that's been uninspiring (Pixies, Ride) or just massively disappointing (Happy Mondays, Stone Roses).
Just realised that the Happy Mondays first "comeback" was 20 years ago. And i still can't believe how shit their cover of The Boys Are Back In Town was.
So if the Smiths and the Jam would like to remain historical that would be just great.
Swervedriver are still really good though.
