That's not the point, I've never denied their influence.

Led Zeppelin - Yes, although I haven't listened to them in ages, i don't forget what I used to listen to.
Joy Division - Yes, two superb albums that never gets old.
Elliott Smith - No, because i find some of his stuff boring.
Beatles - Yes, I don't think any explanation is needed.
King Crimson - Yes, because they keep evolving and i would consider their music a step above most other prog. bands. And lets not forget the influence.
Wu-Tang Clan - No, although I did like Enter the Wu-Tang, one album isn't good enough for me.
The Velvet Underground - Yes, but not a convincing Yes. Mainly because of their debut and Influence.

Led Zeppelin - Yes, terrific rock band
Joy Division - Don't know enough about them to vote
Elliott Smith - Small yes, he got some great stuff, but also some mediocre parts, particularly in his later albums.
The Beatles - Yes, one of the best bands of all time
King Crimson - Same as Joy Division
Wu-Tang Clan - No, I don't like their music. Never got what the big deal with them was.
The Velvet Underground - Yes, all their four albums were superb.

Anyone who votes Zeppelin no is kind of an a-hole.

I get if you don't like them, but to deny how many people do or to deny their influence or how much respect their fellow musicians have for them is narrow minded.

You don't have to vote yes, and shouldn't if you don't like them, but to vote no is myopic and selfish.

Yes, you just said Wolfmother was better...

I'll take that as a compliment.

I'd like them more if they showed the same kind of respect to their own influences.

Um then what other choice is there?

You can just not vote either way. Like I did on Joy Division. And it's not a compliment, but you already know that.

Of course it is, but it's the MUSIC BANTER hall of fame, not the Dreadnaught or Jayjamjah Hall of Fame, I have consistently said you should vote based on both personal opinion and how you think the band is viewed by Musicbanter.

I don't care for Joy Division but I see how much influence they have on the people hear and did not want to stand in the way of them getting in. I won't help them get in, but I won't stop them either.

Huh? I thought the idea was to vote "yes" or "no" based on personal preference?

You can vote "no" and still appreciate that they were influential, etc.
