^ no I'd agree, they didn't start anything new but they did make it more mainstream, and the beatles at least created a lot of things that were built on by artists who came later on. I'm not doubting their talent in the least, my first post makes that more than apparent, but I am saying that both seem to have a following of listeners that don't really value them for their talent, but because these bands have a sort of cult following built up after their huge success.
