What the hell?

I never said they were the most innovative band on the planet, but it seems like everyone is presenting them as a proto *NSYNC pop group of sorts, is this the same Velvet Underground that i'm familar with?

All I`m doing is expanding on my original post.

Kiss - Wrote basic songs , had image created by band & manager , made lots of money.

Velvet Underground - Wrote basic songs with better lyrics , image manipulated by manager , made no money

Ok... But VU's basic songs were better.

And even if they were basic, it was still far from accessible at the time, the weird lyrics, Reeds spoken word style and the sea of unbearable feedback.

I like a couple of KISS songs, i don't hate them, but i honestly don't think they are that good at all, and the reason people here bash them so much is because of the ridiculous amount of media hype they get coupled with the fact that a lot of people (aside from their core fanbase) just don't think they make good music, this dosen't all reflect my opinion but i think Big3 is handling it the wrong way. His little pro rock n roll-anti everything else rant that came out of nowhere pissed me off quite a bit too, instead of just defending KISS like he should have, he has to do this whole "this style of music is better than this style of music cuz i said so" charade that goes nowhere and more importantly off topic, it's completely unnecessary.
