We all listen to good music, well according to ourselves anyhow.

Well I get your point but you named emo bands. Which aren't punk?

Emo is hardcore, hardcore is punk. You're wrong.

Hardcore is not punk hardcore is dumbasses who can't play their instruments. I guess you're pretty hardcore.

you're retarded..completely and utterly retarded.

LOL

So whats your favorite band?

Okkervil River. Yours?

My favourite band is The Fall of Troy, and The Mars Volta..too tough to choose.

So in other words A midget who wants to be Jim Morrison , 2 dead junkies , 2 fat guys in flannel & somebody I can't be bothered finding out about.

1. Spice Girls
2. Puddle of Mudd
3. Nihilist Spasm Band
4. Stain'd w/ fred durst
5. Merzbow

Well ****hole.
# 1.Glenn Allan Anzalone is not the only member of the band Danzig. And also he may sing like Jim Morrison, but he sings a lot better than you and he could kick your ass anyday. Not to mention he single handedly created two genres of music.
#2.Kurt Cobain's death had nothing to do with his heroin addiction, and it doesen't make him lesser of a person just because he was addicted to a horrible drug.
#3.Alice in chains is one of the greatest bands of all time, Jerry Cantrell's guitar playing is unparralled, and Layne Staley is one of the greatest vocalists of all time. Also, I'll state it once again: Drugs do not make you lesser of a person.
#4. They didn't always wear flannel, And there were four members of the band two of which were extremely skinny. Not to mention the fact that Gary Lee Conner is one of the best guitarist's of the nineties.
#5. I'm glad you haven't heard of Static Grim you wouldn't appreciate them.
End of story, you obviously have terrible taste in music and you are a complete dumbass. Also, I would prefer if you left me alone for eternity.

Spice Girls are better than all those, dude.

Kurt Cobain was on heroin when he was shot dumbass. And lesser of a person? Go back to school.

First of all this has nothing to do with you, Second you must be ignorant, because heroin causes numbness and extreme drowsieness not suicide, so Kurt would of been extremely tired and numb when he shot himself.

Oh my god are you that much of an idiot? He was on enough fucking heroin to kill a horse, thats why his 'suicide' is so questioned. Maybe you should do a quick read-up on something before posting about it. It had alot to do with his death because he probably woundn't have gone through it so well even without being shot.

CobainCase.Com - The Kurt Cobain Murder Investigation by Tom Grant

Kurt Cobain killed himself because he couldn't handle the stress of fame and being in the spotlight all the time, He also had extreme back problems and stomach pains because hydrochloric acid was eating away his stomach lining he took heroin so he could sleep and not feel the pain.
P.S Don't try to tell me about Nirvana when you don't know **** yourself.

I think one just needs to go look at the nirvana thread to see how much you know about nirvana.

Using your taste to look at music is the most biased way to look at music. In other words, it is 100% opinionated, which means he can't be dumb for listening to a kind of music.


Now I am not targeting this just towards you, but towards people that judge music while using the bias of taste. Why can't music be judged on a more universal standard such as skill and originality? IDK maybe because people don't care about that anymore. So without using taste, I will judge your bands.

1. Danzig 7/10
2. Nirvana 3/10 (They ripped the Melvins, what did you expect?)
3. Alice in Chains 6/10 (Umm what exactly did they do for music that was so special?)
4. Screaming Trees 6/10 (Same as above)
5. Static Grim (No clue who they are.)

See now instead of arguing how cool these bands are, we can argue on a much easier base like talent.

The only good band you named was Danzig. Even then, old Misfits are much better. Either way, none of those bands are punk, so why is this in the punk forum?

I listen to good music, and so can you! Go here and download everything. Then listen to it. Congratulations, you now listen to good music.

I'm mostly joking, you can listen to whatever music you want. But if you go around attacking others' musical preference, you should expect to get some ****.

David Bowie beats them all!

EASILY.

(I do like AIC though)

You stole my favorite band *gasp*. Seriously though, Okkervil River is better than every band that that guy mentioned.

Tool
TMV
CTTS
Bayside
Co&Ca
Dillinger

combined overall/right now:

Funeral Diner
Spirit of Versailles
Envy
Et tu Brute
Blood Brothers

The Fall of Troy
The Mars Volta
Elliott Smith
Portugal.The Man
Weezer

based on talent, the orginal danzig line up should have a 9/10 after the line up change 5/10.
yea nirvana ripped the melvins, and the pixies.
and as for doing something for music, since when do you have to do something amazing to be a good rock band?
what did metallica do? what did led zeppelin do?
so while you are right about basing things on talent ,your wrong in your assumption that you have to be amazingly influencal to be good.

Metallica, lost Newstead.

then again, they have spider fingers now so meh

A band is a band through all its generations. So what is the average of those two fractions. ZOMG it is 7/10 O_O.

You amazing is obviously not my amazing. You have to something good to be in a good rock band. Many bands out there are original or technical in some way, therefore you must raise the standard of amazing to things like Mozart and those genius's. Excellent is like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and King Crimson who were technical for their time and were both original in what they did. Good is very broad scale with many bands across the board including Rush, Radiohead, etc.

Influential in Thrash Metal, but I consider Metallica to be in the good scale.

Already explained.

No, you just have to be amazingly influential to be amazing.

Don't forget post Damaged Black Flag.

I think it should only be one band that you love. Whether they were influential/successful etc is immaterial. mine is PINK FLOYD..SH[I]T I have just fulfilled every criteria lol.
