and everyone loves the darkness. the one guy looks like peter frampton sort of.

Daddylikes 07.16.2006 09:47 PM

Yeah, I'd say the Darkness is more influential than Nirvana.

Daddylikes 07.16.2006 09:48 PM

Also I'm surprised that Little Richard didn't make the top ten (or Elvis, or Ray Charles, etc.)

can't have nirvana/radiohead w/o pixies

Daddylikes 07.16.2006 09:59 PM

I'd say that Dj Shadow is more influential to Radiohead than the damn Pixies.

The Pixies and Nirvana are the two most overly praised musical acts of all time.

The only reason they are fluffed so much is because it's "cool" to fluff them.

Michael Jackson is infinitely more influential to music in general than either of those bands, but you'll never see Michael Jackson get fluffed like them.

I agree.....The Strokes, but no Bad Brains/Minor Threat? There are a ton of metal/hardcore bands that they influenced by them.....a lot more than the few "garage revival" bands that I think are more SIMILAR to The Strokes than being heavily influenced by The Strokes sound or whatever. *Shakes fist.

The Ramones are surprisingly low on that list.....I mean come on. The fast drums, the guitar, the approach to rock n' roll......

Cantankerous 07.16.2006 10:48 PM

the ramones changed music for the worse.

krastian 07.16.2006 11:08 PM

You don't like punk? You don't like to rock? There'd prob. be no Sex Pistols without The Ramones....I'm pretty sure you've mentioned the Pistols a bunch of times on here. They learned to "play" to The Ramones first record.....you know that.

if i give a shit is another matter.

krastian 07.16.2006 11:48 PM

Ok.

Daddylikes 07.16.2006 11:51 PM

Ok, to say that Nirvana is more influential than Marvin Gaye basically means you are mentally retarded and can't discuss this in a rational manner.

I've never heard such bullshit expounded in my life.

Good luck being a lifeless retard.
