Which UK Radio should I listen online?

[robj]

Hi!

I love to listen UK Radios, the ones which I usually listen are, CapitalFM and BBC Radio1, they are great, but I'm looking for alternatives :)

Could you recommend me a good radio station with online service? ( I accept US radio station as well :D )

I wrote the "UK radio" because I like bands like MUSE, Placebo, The Killers and things like that, I would prefer a that radio which plays music of this style, but I don't mind if it's a good one and doesn't play this kind of music.

Thanks!!

Although it doesnt play loads of rock, I love Radio 2.

Try Kiss 100, plays mainly dance music but is very good, or if you have itunes try Blast Radio, great mix of music and I know 3 of the DJ's, Try Mondays 7pm GMT, the Nick Pledge show. :):)

BBC Radio 4 - For the discerning listener......

Are you limited to US/UK stuff or would you be willing to try Irish radio? If so these are my favourites:

I like todayfm (very modern) but their schedule has as much chat shows as music (this one probably isn't what you are looking for daytime although from 7pm GMT they mostly play indie stuff until midnight)

fm104 Radio station for Dublin they play everything and often bands like you have mentioned

spin1038 Again based in Dublin but more youth orientated

All of these are available to listen online! Hope this helps!

Edit 2fm also plays Rock and Indie from 8pm GMT onwards....

And just to clarify I do say Irish radio stations but they speak english.....:)

Thanks for replying :)

I'll try those stations.

My post title should be, English stations, BTW I was in Dublin about 2 years ago, and I was listening fm104 all the time. I forgot to search it online, thanks for bring it back to my mind :)

Unfortunately, I cannot play Kiss 100 because it's limited to UK citizens :( Seriously, I cannot understand this kind of limitations...

BBC Radio 6Music.

By far my favourite radio station. Lots of new, fresh (and surprisingly good) bands, with a healthy mix of old classics, obscure experimental material and sessions from the BBC archives stretching back all the way to the 60's.

Me likey! :)

if you're in spain try spotify. It's not really a 'radio station' in the traditional sense of the word but it's great.

Im glad I could help you! At least with FM104 you can listen to some great songs then laugh at the positive scum of Dublin City as they call up to attack each other live on air on the phoneshow!

I spent many an evening p!ssing myself laughing at that show!
