But it does light the burning torch of hatred I have for him! Plus, he's a terrible musician. He can't sing and he can't play guitar, but somehow someway people started thinking he was underrated. OK.

If you like grunge and hate Nirvana, you're just being a tool.
Because all grunge bands sound exactly the same, right?
I'm not a huge grunge fan myself, but saying "IF YOU LIKE (genre) BUT HATE (band) YOU'RE JUST A TOOL" is a pretty goddamn ignorant and stupid thing to say.

Hell yeah. Let's be friends.

There's a lot more psychedelic influence in their music, but they're still progressive. Personally I think that's why they're BETTER than every prog band - they don't just play crazy stuff like Crimson or Yes, they basically took psychedelic music and twisted it around a lot.

Although, then you say they're not all that psychedelic...what are they?

Also, I'd probably give Animals top billing in their discography, then Dark Side of the Moon with Wish You Were Here bringing up the rear.

The Wall is pretty middling, got some cool songs but it's not the masterpiece everyone says it is. I think Mark Prindle, who I don't often agree with, hit the nail on the head; it's an album for teenagers. Very youthful.
