Hey forgive my chat room ignorance but what is a 'Troll', other than, seemingly, the ultimate dismissive?
It's kinda like someone who fishes out people using bait. Making statements that would upset or aggravate people generally in a sense. "People who listen to this have bad taste." "Anyone who says this is a moron."

Ah I getcha, as in TROLLing. Like if I were to say 'Anyone who likes The Captain and Tennille sucks Satan's c*ck!', I'm basically just spoiling for a fight, not really engaging in any meaningful discussion. Interesting.

Thanks for the schooling.

haven't heard enough Captain and Tenille to have an opinion, really

let's get back to Hendrix - i mean he was only recognised in the UK during his lifetime, and that was only on "par" with Clapton

in the US, he was somewhere between Santana and Jerry Garcia

only in retrospect people think he's high above all of them now

not to mention nobody ever said he basically invented shoegazer, jazz rock, funk rock and did the only soul-rock in existence - "Remember"

A metal song with melody probably wouldn't even qualify as metal. Even if it did, the melody would be lost beneath all that hideous distortion. Basically, metal is musical cancer, and if you like it, there's something wrong with you. Of course, metal fans likely take that as a compliment, since, as I said, they judge their music very differently from how normal people do; abrasion and general unlistenable-ness are signs that the music is "intense". A metal song with melody and tune would betray the fundamental tenents of metal.
All I can say is, good luck, you'll need it.

Tennille thought she was all like Kiki Dee and sh*t, but let me tell you something - Tennille couldn't hold Kiki Dee's jockstrap! And the captain? They called him the captain just because he wore that stupid hat? They should have called them the Douchebag and Tennille. Yeah, that's right. I said it. WHOOP!

Hendrix was a way better guitarist and songwriter than God. I mean, have you heard God's solo albums? Talk about blah.

Hendrix is one of those guys who left us way to early. The direction he was moving in before he died was so interesting and compelling, I could easily have seen him doing a spate of albums the way Coltrane did with Impulse, just searching and exploring and getting further and further out there. A lot of what he recorded sounds dated to me just because of all the hippy trappings that were in vogue at the time, but when he was able to strip all that stuff away and just play, it was molten lava, manna from a heavenly cosmic force. You can talk about Eddie Hazel, Sly Stone, etc. all great guitar players, but they didn't even come close to what Hendrix was about.
