That's a great list. I like some Cure and some Talking Heads, but honestly I would be totally satisfied with greatest hits from both those bands.


I loathe AC-DC, The Rolling Stones, and Radiohead all to a certain extent though I recognize they've done good stuff.

Oh, add U fucking 2.

batreleaser 03.14.2008 12:10 AM

acdc ive alwayd had issues with, they have some rockin tunes tho, and i worship stones-let it bleed and exile.

uhler 03.14.2008 12:19 AM

1. aerosmith
2. kiss
3. korn
4. U2
5. red hot chilli peppers

i love sleater kinney. one of my favorite bands. heavens to betsy were amazing too and so was excuse 17. the cure, ehh, some good songs. i like some talking heads also, but they're pretty boring overall. early siouxsie and the banshees is pretty damn good. she and her band lost it after their first few albums though. daft punk have some cool songs, but again, ehhh whatever.

Someone bought me all hands on the bad one and though I haven't listened to it in a long time, I remember being rather bored by it.

Those 5 are good choices. Throw in GnR.

Aerosmith = wannabe Led Zeppelin
GnR = wannabe Aerosmith

Sonic Youth 37 03.14.2008 12:59 AM

1. the Rolling Stones
2. AC/DC
3. U2
4. REM
5. Pearl Jam

appetite for destruction will always be amazing. but yeah, guns n roses, stones, theybe become parodies of themselves. the stones shoulda quit after sticky fingers, not gone on for another fuckin 30 yeats, but exile and let it bleed are rock n roll masterpieces.

ZEROpumpkins 03.14.2008 02:00 AM

Jesus and Mary Chain, Massive Attack, Green Day (And everyone else responsible for pop-punk), RHCP, Guns 'n' Roses

I can't name anything, I usually end up liking them. However, if there is a band I dislike is U2. Me and my BF always fight about this, he says they are god, etc, etc.

It's a matter of personal opinion. I can't stand them at all.

alteredcourse 03.14.2008 02:05 AM

I'm sorry but i must agree wtih Zero . Ive tried to take in the jesus and mary chain and end up shaking my head . i honestly dont get the appeal .

ZEROpumpkins 03.14.2008 02:10 AM

Cheers, mate. Being a SY message board, I usually get shit thrown at me when I say I don't like em. Usually the first response is "WELL PUMPKINS SUCK YOU HAVE BAD TASTE" for the people that don't know that I don't like the pumpkins.

Well i spose I like Pumpkins a bit still because I used to listen to them a lot when I was younger and I still enjoy their tunes circa 1993-1996. But I used to be way obsessed with them when I made this account.

fugazifan 03.14.2008 02:10 AM

i dont really hate any band, except for bono maybe. but talking heads are one of my favorites

✌➬ 03.14.2008 02:17 AM

Well we can agree that Bono sucks.

ZEROpumpkins 03.14.2008 02:19 AM

Yeah Bono is way overrated and a hypocrite, but U2 has some good stuff, their old stuff at least. Not Joshua Tree though (Snooze)

✌➬ 03.14.2008 02:20 AM

Ok, I have to agree they do have some ok tunes, but overall their discography is a bore.

alteredcourse 03.14.2008 02:20 AM

If you are so disgruntled with your obviously-unsuiting username , why dont you make a new one Zero ?

atsonicpark 03.14.2008 02:30 AM

Metallica Is Amazing.
