Not really the one to ask the question of. I don't know too much Aerosmith, but they get a lot of credit here. I did have some KISS albums and enjoyed what I heard on them, particularly Kiss Alive and Kiss Alive II, so personally, for me, Kiss. Creatures of the Night was another great, later album of theirs.

Ahhh, man Kiss or Aerosmith, IDK which one! I'mma have to go with Aeorosmith for making my favorite song. Smells Like Teen Spirit, all though In Bloom by Kiss was pretty dope.

You totally lost that argument right there against Grunge, and against Kurt Cobain. Gene Simmons is a slime ball douche bag. Kurt Donald Cobain is a saint compare to that chauvinistic pig.

Not quite sure what relevance personalities have to ... oh wait. It's Nick. He judges anything he doesn't like on that basis. Forgot that. Carry on.

Trollheart who do you like better? Priest or Maiden? Maiden by a country mile for me. I just think more of their material has held up over the years. I have so many t-shirts and memorabilia that I probably put Steve Harris's kids through college. Although I do like both bands.
Priest IMO have not as good songs as Maiden, I generally like every song or all but one song on a Maiden Album, but on Priest Albums apart from the first three albums I generally only like about 5 songs per album, although Rising I did like them all!!

It took me at least 6 good listens to fully appreciate that CD. I think the sound is really good!

Diehard Maiden fan. The Number of the Beast was not only my first Maiden album, but my very first Heavy Metal album. I rate them thus:
1. The Number of the Beast (this isn't because necessarily it's the best album, but because of nostalgia and it introduced me to so much)
2. Powerslave
3. Killers
4. Piece of Mind
5. Brave New World
6. Fear of the Dark

and then all the rest, with Virtual XI and The X Factor coming in way, way, way at the bottom, the latter beating the former for bottom place just by a tiny margin, mostly due to "Angel and the Gambler".

Not particularly pushed about Priest. British Steel is a good album and I love Turbo, but other than that, decent yeah but nowhere close to Maiden.
