Unpopular music opinions

The Beatles were The Backstreet Boys of the 1960s.

Judas Priest should never make another album

[Coyote]

I don't get Jeff Buckley.
I can't wrap my head around "the genius" of John Mayer, Jay-Z, or anyone who's been called a "genius" during the last ten years.
I can't stand death metal, or any form of "metal".
(Pantera's the only representative of "metal" in my collection, but that's only 'cause Dime was a killer guitarist. And that little parallel with =VH=...)
I sure as fuck don't understand how this is better music for dancing than this?

And who the fuck is Justin Bieber, and why the fuck should I care 'bout him?




















































































What am I showing here, my age or my taste?

[Unchainme]

In regards to Coyote's statement, I have little patience for the death growl vocals. I just don't understand it, as near amazing in a group like that, and almost seems like a cheap way out, I more so respect someone who sings where you could understand the lyrics and have a little bit of range and has some personality.

It's rather sad, because in a lot of those groups there are some decent guitar players, though at the same time, a lot of them just seem to be Joe Satriani wannabes.

Nu-Metal is another thing I cannot stand, and the fact that fucking disturbed gets as much airplay as they do on the local rock stations here really makes me scratch my head. Their lyrics...are..whiny and very shallow, their vocalist can't sing worth a shit and has the personality of a dead moth, and the songs are very cookie-cutter, with no solo. Total buzzkill too with how those stations are set up, as you'll click over and here "Panama" or an actual good song, and you'll crank it up...and then suddenly you hear that shit after it?

[Dave's Bitch]

I hate the Doors.
Jimi Hendrix is the most over rated guitarist of all time.
I think the Rolling Stones are over rated.
Punk music sucks.
Nirvana sucks.
I hate modern metal.

Kiss's 80's stuff is amazing
Sonic Boom is a fantastic album
Never really dug Led Zep
I also really like Def Leppards Hysteria
Iron Maiden need to hang it up
Judas Priest are better than maiden
Velvet Revolver suck
Alice Cooper is better than black sabbath
Dio was better in sabbath than ozzy
Guns N Roses hands down,best band in history

Back when country music was country music and not a bad, cheesey imitation of rock music.

Except for the fact that Glenn Campbell was a California studio musician before he became a country singer. He was even a temporary Beach Boy for a while, and reportedly played guitar on some of the Monkees' earlier stuff. And songs like "Rhinestone Cowboy" are damn near Hagar-level cheesy.

While it's true that Campbell was a session musician, before that he toured the country circuit in the southeastern U.S. during the fifties. Yes, he played bass on the Champs' "Tequila" and was a member of the Wrecking Crew, but you have to remember that for as much piffle that he recorded with that outfit, he also recorded some hard edged country stuff for heavy hitters like Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, and Johnny Cash.

Bruce Springsteen sucks and is worthless.

[Terry]

I want "Van Halen" to hang it up and call it a day.

I have little to no use for Metallica.

I have little to no use for the Beatles.

Truth be told, Ozzy's last decent album was Diary of a Madman: everything ever since has been a case a slow-but-steadily diminishing returns.

Eric Clapton has ALWAYS been WAY overrated (yes, that includes when he was in Cream, too).

Rolling Stones haven't been worth a damn since 1982.

[Bob_R]

The Beatles were The Backstreet Boys of the 1960s.

Yeah, I'm sure I Am The Walrus, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, and Strawberry Fields were their inspiration.

Judas Priest should never make another album

Judas Priest should have NEVER made an album to begin with.

(prepares for pounding)

richie sambora is one of the greatest singer/songwriter/guitarists of all time

[Seshmeister]

Is your favourite movie Priscilla Queen of the Desert?

[Mr Badguy]

You're right, Sesh.

"Sex and religion" was pretty good.

However, 40 minutes in 20 years is a shitty return.

[Seshmeister]

I never said 40 minutes, probably closer to 25. Once all those pig sounds start on the second side I have to turn it off.

Saw it live too and it didn't work but that was maybe due to 'support band' sound.

What were Townsends vocals like live back then?

I saw him with Strapping young lad and at times it was good...and at times unbearable.

[Seshmeister]

Yeah that's how I remember it too.

They were supporting Aeroballad and the sound was really bad. Really loud messy horrible and with that kind of ambitious music it wasn't good.

Maybe not helped by me pushing my way down near the front.

Highlight of the show was 'For the Love of God' which is coincidently what I was thinking for most of their set...
