    Boo!! :mad: They still put on a hell of a live show, though. Corporate whores, my a**e. The whole point of the music business(or ANY business)for that matter, is to MAKE AS MUCH MONEY as possible.

    Good luck to em.

    Yes, but music is an art. Art does not equal business. If Metallica's main aim is to make money, then they are no longer artists and can be described as corporate whores

    . The Killers, your man Brandon Flowers is an idiot..

    Brandon Flowers came out and said that in 10 years r so the killers first album will be regarded as better than the beatles white album!! how much of an idiot is he?! doesnt he realise that the beatles wer bigger than jesus!

    So how will people regard the most recent album? Every time I head it on the radio I wonder how that crap can be played, the songs are just that bad.

    I can sorta relate to that. They're so horribly over-rated, its unreal.

    Yes, music IS an art. But unfortunately, like, for instance, football, it has become a business too.

    I remember watching the Some Kind Of Monster DVD(crap film I know), and they were having a discussion about contracts when Robert Trujillo joined the band. You could see that they were driven mad about all the business bulls**t, but, like it or not, money is why most bands are in the business, and anyone that tells you anything different is just talking s***e!

    discussing music on boards is a tricky business , unless your into bands who never became successfull ( at least financially ) your considered lame

    each to there own , i still think led zeplin are brilliant and i still think there in a whole other league to motley crue , ac/dc or the eighties hair bands

    well, aint you full of crap:rolleyes:
    fact of the matter is generic music, which is what most music mentioned in this thread is in my very arrogant opinion and many others crap! its to appeal to a general audience, and cannot be sexist etc. and generic music=POP music.
    peoples music tastes are all opinions and are all valid. NO need to cry sacrelidge if sombody who likes motley crue, also likes led zeppelin,
    motley incidentally cite led zeppelin as a influence:rolleyes:

    i hate people who are led zep "fans"(only own mothership) and cant even spell the bands ****ing name right(

    Us Zep fans tend to shorten Zeppelin to Zeplin. Its cos we say it so much, type it so much, tattoo it so much, and also Zeplin is more pleasing to the ear than Zeppelin for some reason. Its kinda hard to believe that a Zep fan cant spell Zeplin. I mean Zeppelin.
    So I reckon there is no need for the rolleyes. I reckon that the rolleyes should be banned. Its always the one thing guaranteed to indicate a total thread failure. Either that or mentioning the Holocaust, Hitler, U2, Bono, 360 vs. PS3, sex near Marksie, Christiano Ronaldo, or killing all the unemployed people.

    I'm finding it hard trying to ignore the fact that 2 people mentioned Thin Lizzy on the thread... as someone rightly pointed out... WTF???
    Glad Ugly Kid Joe got a mention and Offspring... Don't think these have been mentioned so far though:

    The Quireboys!!!!!!:D

    never heard that before:confused: id just use zep, or led zep, although i know led leppelin fans who are really anal about people spelling it wrong:confused:

    bono and u2 have been mentoned all ready...suppose this is why its going haywire.

    cant believe the amount of people who think led zeppelin are the height of musical taste:confused:
    they are good but................................

    I nominate JJ bloody 72! I hated them with a passion! And Travis, Stereophonics, Oasis and 80's hair metal ****e are all shocking bad. Silverchair, a whinny wanna be Nirvana sham **** feck angry:mad:.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 211 ✭✭Dr.Slurm


    Kaiser Chiefs - Their songs are catchy to begin with, but quickly become irritating to the point of nausea.

    Same goes for Hard-Fi, The Fray, Maroon 5 etc.

    The likes of Puddle of Mudd, Staind, Nickelback and Lost Prophets, I also find pretty awful.

    Whoever mentioned Radiohead must have been thinking of the alternate meaning of the word awful. In that case, I agree that Radiohead are awful, in the sense that their brilliance inspires awe. ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,803 ✭✭✭lintdrummer


    And Primus. Who in the hell decided that Primus were worth listening to.
    Actually Primus are a representative of all that skater punk / rock nonsense from which so few bands emerge with any respect.

    Uh oh, you touched a nerve there Dr. Primus are one of the most unique bands I've ever heard, they do what they want and got recognition for being themselves. I don't see how Primus are "Skater/Punk Rock", thats just wrong, they actually have their own genre. Listen to The Brown Album and tell me if thats Skater Punk. Your talking bollocko...

    Anyway I think U2, Lost Prophets, My Chemical Romance and all the Emo bands, Kaiser Chiefs, Fratellis etc. are rightfully on this list.

    I nominate this thread for the most pointless piece of garbage on boards.


    May as well have called it "who has the best opinion?".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 454 ✭✭CrazyTalk


    AC/DC
    The White Stripes
    Most (but not all) Indie Rock
    The Darkness

    Didn't you just shorten Zeppelin to Zep there? Methinks someone is trying to cover their tracks... ;)

    The only people I ever hear saying Zeplin are those who think that's how the name is pronounced and spelled.

    But anyway yeah, +1 to worst thread ever.

    this thread is great and bad at the same time:D

    LOL at the people offended that music they like is on peoples lists.
    its opinions get over it!!!

    great to see the different tastes, pleasantly suprised about U2(i thought i was on my own on that)

    amazing that people think ACDC and Led zeppelin are untouchable, and blasphmous to say they are ****:D:D
