DUNST ATTACKS AMERICAN INDUSTRY FOR 'CRAP' MUSIC

Actress KIRSTEN DUNST has attacked the American music industry for producing "crap" bands, insisting British artists are better at making "great" songs. The Spider-Man star - who is currently dating Razorlight rocker Johnny Borrell - reminisces about the music she listened to as a child, from the likes of Guns 'N Roses to the soundtrack of musical Les Misrables, but admits she isn't a fan of the artists which dominate today's charts. She says, "It's harder to find great music these days. We have Amy Winehouse now, I guess and Bono (of U2). But still our biggest bands back home are crap. "We don't have a Bob Dylan; where are all the great writers? We don't have enough new great talent. We just don't have the inspirational songs that pop out."

I am a huge U2 fan, but I would say to this lady that she is so wrong. Ever heard of The Killers?? and the trend for good music from her part of the world is on the up.

Well, Green Day certainly isn't crap. They are great. Bono and U2 aren't American, they are Irish, but then many Americans wish they were Irish, too....
