Depeche Mode
I'm only a casual fan of their music, but goddamn their crowds are fucking awesome to witness. I had never seen and heard so many people at MSG singing along, dancing, arm waving, and just being so into it from start to finish.

And yeah, they did Push the Lil Daisies, but it's not fair to judge them on that, since it's pretty much that song made people who didn't know any better forever think these guys were a novelty act, when in fact they're among the greatest songwriters and musicians around

Greatest band and live band ever

Funeral was great when it came out but it really hasn't aged well (and it's only been what, like 7 years?). Everything they've done after has been shit. Easily one of the most overrated bands ever

That Medina guy…
What an asshole. totally using his fiance for sympathy votes to make up for his completely average vocals. This might be even worse than Gokey.

Portishead >>>>>>>>>>>> Arcade Fire
