what do you think the best band of all time is? ACDC Kiss Motley Crue Van Hallen Metallica Led Zeplin Black Sabbath Beatles G&R Blue Oyster Cult Styx Nirvana Judas Priest etc...
they are a great band RJ, not my favorite at all, but great they are...I would have to go with Led Zeplin or maybe even ACDC...
The only one I listened to much from that list was Nirvana. About a year ago, when Sirius had the ACDC channel, my brother and I were driving home from a hunting trip in Alberta and that was the only station he wanted to listen to. I damn near put needles in my ear drums so I didn't have to listen to it!
needles in the ear drum over ACDC?? wow Dan....I had you pegged as a an ACDC kind of guy, certainly not Nirvana...no Metallica? no Van halen?
For some reason I have never liked ACDC or Van Halen. Don't know why....just don't. I used to listen to some Metallica, but mostly Bush, Pearl Jam, STP and the like. I'm 33 and was fortunate to grow up during dawn of alternative. I've also listened to my share of country.....modern country. My dad was one of the founders of a large country music festival back in the early 90's here in WI that still runs every year and draws a huge crowd. Kinda grew on me being around it. Don't tell Scott, but Kenny Chesney is playing in the background now.
I love Nirvana too, really they are one of the bands that I remember most from my adolescence, certainly one of the most influential of my generation. I have a ton of Nirvana on my iPhone. With that said, as musicians they aren't nearly as talented as Metallica. I'd say that Led Zeppelin is just as, if not more talented than Metallica........however they were a bit before my time, I didn't come to really appreciate Zeppelin until I was late in highschool and in college.
Man I love PJ and STP, but I really still despise Bush. Don't know why, but they always seemed like a bunch of "posers" (:D) to me.
Dan and I have the same taste in music. I don't think you can make a list of great bands w/o mentioning The Eagles or the Stones....possibly even Aerosmith. Of those listed, I'd probably take GNR. Metallica does nothing for me.
oh man I hate the Eagles...they have played them in the ground, but I will not argue that have put out some great albums... yall wanna go Hair bands?? Ratt Poison Cinderella Crue Doken Quiet Riot G&R White Snake Def Lep etc...
I like them all except the Beatles. Other than that, I can't choose between them. They're all legends.
As great as some of the bands on the list are... I would have to say IMO... Alice In Chains is the best band ever... amazing vocals, great lyrics, ect..... not to mention that they were the true inventers of the "Seattle Grunge" sound.
Where Hooker!?!?!?! Im ready for a fight! I HATE AC/DC When i hear there music, i think of all the loser kids i put in trash cans in high school. GAY GAY GAY. My big 3 have always been Nirvana, GNR, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Truthfully i believe the GREATEST band of all time was Nirvana. I just do. Other bands i love: Stone Temple Pilots Soundgarden Audioslave Temple of the Dog (Old) Green Day Pearl jam Bush
Yea, your right.... they are better than Nirvana:D I like Nirvana, but alot of the music that they were credited for wasn't actually their music.. it belonged to a few unknown bands... my biggest gripe is the people who say that "Nirvana started grunge rock".... far from the truth... even worse yet is the people who swear that Green Day took grunge to a "new level"
Nirvana did the best thing it could do for Grunge. It popularized it. Smells Like Teen Spirit is the greatest song ever and ill ninja kick you if you say otherwise Nirvana did do alot of covers, of course, but Nevermind was genuinely one of the greatest albums ever released in music history.
