Sorry, sweetheart, but I've heard many of their songs. My brother was a fan, and guess what? All their songs suck.

I heard they had a song called "lip lock rock" back in their glam days. Did you know Pantera also used to be glam. Can someone post a pic?

Are you kidding me? I love Faster Pussycat! Their first 2 albums are the shit!

You're all forgetting Stryper, who brought you such party hits like 'To Hell With the Devil'.

You must have missed whole thread that was devoted to Stryper recently. The thread that probably inspired THIS one in fact.

Rowdy said:

Oh no, don't hate on Stryper. They were keeping it real with G.O.D! Plus they're bumble bee outfits were smokin! Seriously, I give them props for doing their own thing and trying to spread the good word of the lord.

I forget, was Trixter any good?

Motley Crue are not all bad as musicians, but I'm not crazy about what they represent. Sort of like Guns 'n' Roses (who I like a lot), they've said & done some things that make themselves look like immature racist sexist drug addicted morons.

andyman91 said:

That's what they were.

lilgish said:

Trixter were pretty crap but I used to have their tape back in the day. They had some catchy tunes but overall, they were shite!

lilgish said:

no

I think you've got that competely backwards. i have never, never, never[i] understood the appeal of G&R and axil rose. sure, they had 1 or 2 catchy songs, but other than that, i just don't get it. Nirvana, however, changed the face of music, in my not so humble opinion.

dancerella said:

OH MY GOD!I USED TO HAVE THE BIGGEST CRUSH ON DAVID COVERDALE(OKAY,SO I ALSO HAD THE HOTS FOR RUDI SARZO AND ADRIAN VANDENBERG TOO,)IN MY DEFENCE,I WAS A TEENAGER,HAD TIGHTER PANTS AND BIGGER HAIR THAN ANY OF THOSE GUYS!I CAN'T BELIEVE I JUST ADMITTED THAT!I LOOKED DAVID COVERDALE UP ON THE WEB FOR OLD TIMES SAKE LAST YEAR...MMMMM.LETS JUST SAY THAT HE IS LOOKING HIS AGE!X

ambergreen said:

Wow, you thought he was good looking? Well, to each his own I suppose. He just looked like a wolfman or something, to me.

I'll give Nirvana their props for changing things up when things got stale on the rock scene but Kurt Cobain is overated in my opinion. He is no genius like everyone says. He wrote good songs and there's no doubt that he was talented but I wonder what he'd be doing now if he were still alive. Look at Eddie Vedder and Pearl Jam. They were also regarded and great musicians and I know they still have a huge fan base but they're not really "popular" any more. Axl on the other hand in my opinion was very talented and sexy as hell! They are 2 very different artists so it's hard to even compare them but let's just say I prefer G n'R over Nirvana!

dancerella said:

Actually Pearl Jam's latest offerings have been a nice mixture of artsy fartsyness with good old fashion rock. I was never much of a fan of them though.

I agree--Kurt Cobain is no genius. But I really dig his music. I own a good deal of Nirvana Stuff from Bleached up to the newer stuff and some boots. I don't consider them genius's though.

What Nirvana was, to me, is the last nail in the coffin for the excesses of White American Rock music during the late 80's and early 90's. I would peg Jane's Addiction and Post Modern and College acts as being the preceding nails.

But it's the last nail that seals the coffin shut, and cuts off the airflow. I smiled joyfully when Nevermind knocked MJ's album off the top of the charts. And I smiled even more joyfully witnessing the slow and painful demise of bands who at one time thought they where invincable.

Nirvana was symbolic of the youth at the time deciding they wanted to change the landscape of what was being fed to them. Ofcourse, they had the first punch and coperate america delivered the second. After Nirvana, all sorts of "grunge" and grungy acts started invading our space, like Stone Temple Pearl Jam and finally that aweful aweful aweful band that somehow sold millions--Creed.

WEEZER.

The members of the band weezer used to be an a glam medal band called Zoom.
They used to literally skate down the sunset strip.

No, really, these guys win. Or lose.



I have to go wash my monitor now.
