Chicken Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 My only thing with Jethro Tull is that rock bands don't have flute players. Otherwise I think they're great band- flute included. Who says? The flute in Jethro Tull is one of the things that's so great about them. I find it very refreshing to hear a flute solo instead of a guitar solo sometimes, actually.

Jahfin Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I know you didn't explicitely say it, but I would never compare Nirvana to the likes of Green Day.....they're universes apart!! You're correct, I didn't but you know the music press. In the wake of Cobain's death they didn't hesitate to call Green Day "the new Nirvana". I do see them all as an extension of punk rock though, no matter how far removed. Like I said, they were the more accessible versions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jahfin Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Well, if punk developed into Nirvana's sound, I can only rejoice!! That not really what I'm saying but Nirvana were definitely heavily influenced by punk. Pat Smear was in that band for a reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dragster Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 That not really what I'm saying but Nirvana were definitely heavily influenced by punk. Pat Smear was in that band for a reason. We could say Nirvana knowingly put the "funk" into the "punk" or if you like it more, Mascis was the man who 'psychedelilized' Nirvana's 'punky' sound! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idunn Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I think someone ought to make a case for Hall and Oates. I'll do it. THEY SUCK BEYOND THE REALMS OF SUCKITUDE!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
moondog Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I cannot stand The Sex Pistols. Stone temple Pilots, or Pearl Jam. And almost everybody on the thread. And with the exception of maybe 1 song, Velvet Revolver. Anything country, except Johnny Cash. Oh yeah remember accept? Think they were German. My God this list could go on forever.

Bong-Man Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I rip on Styx quite a bit, but I'd have to give the nod to Toto. People say the band members were great musicians. I'm sorry, but you don't have to be a great musician to play Roseanna. Saw then live too warming up for somebody. They sucked....Toto IV sucked....the Rains in Africa sucked. They never made it in Japan because Toto happens to be the name of Japan's largest toilet manufacturer. How fitting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charles_Obscure Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 The Police - Good musicians, bad songs... Creed Nickleback all those "emo" bands... pretty much everything MTV has played since 20 years... hehehe Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stonefreelee Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 When our local classic rock station has a remote I try to get at the DJ who plays Seger every four songs. I'm banned from all their outdoor events........There was an incident. Nice!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stonefreelee Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Rap music (all of it, never mind the band/artist) - it's what the "off" button was made for. couldn't agree more... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ninelives Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Are the Ramones a music group or comedy act? While they aren't exactly technically brilliant, they had that a great energy and were quite fun live. Provided you stayed out of the mosh pit (i'm short, it was scary ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stonefreelee Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I'm surprised Jethro Tull didn't get any mentions. Go ahead, I can take it. Well, they were supposedly called "Jethro Dull" by "the boys", but who knows if that was true or not? However, they were the first concert I ever saw, probably eary '78...but they did get blown off the stage by their opener, Uriah Heap...sorry... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Electrophile Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 If I posted all the bands I thought sucked donkey dick, the site would crash.

Jarlaxle 56 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 (edited) Flaming Lips Explain, because I just can't understand how anyone could possibly dislike the Lips even the slightest. Edit: Sorry for being an ass, I was just shocked that someone would think that of them. Edited January 23, 2008 by Jarlaxle 56 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
