Nah, I still think Bleach was the best, and in a distant second is Incesticide. Alot of the songs off In Utero are overplayed and stale.

Hmmm I have so many of these:

Dance music is not just for pill poppers, if you're that small minded you can't like rock music and dance music, you don't deserve to have thoughts, same with every genre of music, there is something worth listening to in each one, don't ever dismiss an entire genre

The Mars Volta will never ever be half as good as ATD-I

Hundred Reasons should be put down, as should the singer from Starsailor and many many mainstream indie bands such as Razorlight and the Ordinary Boys

The Beach Boys 'Pet Sounds' was NOT the best album ever recorded, far from it

Franz Ferdinand would be so many of our faveourite bands if they hadn't found fame so quickly and we weren't sick of hearing their records

Neil young is miles better than Bob Dylan

^^ Yeah I'd agree Bleach then Incesticide were definelty the best albums, In Utero just wasn't as good, and Nevermind was way too overrated to be able to compare fairly

So true. I wouldnt have even bothered to listen to mars volta if it wasnt for my favoritism towards ATDI. Even Sparta is better than mars volta.

* not every song is about heroin
* hip hop IS music, contrary to the belief of (always) some moronic prepubescent metalhead who judges music by its level of distortion and number of notes played per second rather than style and creativity
* Just because Kurt cobain blew his brains out doesn't make him enigmatic or a genius

Totally, I have a soft spot for Sparta, despite the fact they suffer the same fate. They're just better.

I actually hated them more before everybody started kissing their ass.
Maybe i`m mellowing in my old age, still don`t like them ... I just don`t hate them as much.Maybe because i`ve heard all those other British guitar bands since & now Franz Ferdinand don`t seem as bad.

Basically i think the main thing to mention is that:
Us rockers - just because we dress different or listen to music others wont accept us for because it aint 'cool' like r'n'b, doesn't mean we arn't people, in some (or most cases) better people

Well let it all out here , post any of your opinions that may be consdered 'against the grain' here , be controversial , be bold , don`t let people tell you your opinion is wrong. Stick to your guns & don`t be afraid to rustle a few feathers.

A few of mine that i`ve been shouted at about.....

Pet Sounds is nowhere near the greatest album ever recorded , and apart from Good Vibrations & God Only Knows I have no time for the Beach Boys whatsoever.

Same goes for Sgt Pepper & the Beatles

Around 95% of Bob Dylan`s output is boring rubbish

Pink Floyd have not made anything worth listening to since 1977

Can were better than Pink Floyd anyway

Led Zeppelin are ok for a fun blues based c0ck rock band , but to suggest they`re one of the greatest bands ever is laughable.

The Fall have more talent & creativity than every single american punk band put together.

Nobody gave a crap about Elliot Smith & Jeff Buckley till they kicked the bucket

Note to American indie bands ...Ripping of The Cure , The Smiths , Joy Division , Echo & The Bunnymen & Gang Of Four does not make you 'alternative'

The current crop of British guitar bands ( Futureheads , Razorlight , Libertines , Delays , Bloc Party , Art Brut , 20 20s ) are boring generic crap

Elton John has never contributed anything to music & that includes ****ing Tiny Dancer

Classic rock fans make me want to throw up , really we`ve heard for the last 30 to 40 years how great ledzepbeatlespinkfloydhendrixmorissonectectect are , we don`t really need to hear it AGAIN.

As does anyone who claims to be 'punk rock'

There is no excuse in the world for owning the Stereophonics last album

Billy Corgan should have retired in 1993

American music scene of the last 20 years ...grunge & emo , surely you can do better than that. And while your at it can you stop buying Pearl Jam albums , you just encourage them to make more.

so what are you a fan of?
