The list would be about 600 bands long...but Rush and Queensryche would be right on top.

Fish on...

Cali? No, I'm from here...and saw Queesryche back when they were a heavy metal band, and were good...for one four song EP.

After that they decided to be a cross between Pink Floyd and a bowel movement...heavy on the bowel movement.

The list is long but:

The Eagles
Steve Miller Band

There are a ton of bands who's studio albums and popular songs suck, but are great to watch in concert. Just watching concerts on Youtube I changed my mind about:

Rush
Dire Straits
OAR

and a bunch more.

Queensryche as a heavy metal band in 1982...GOOD:



Queensryche as a schitty progressive hard rock "concept" band...BAD:



If you like the second one more than the first one then you clearly aren't a heavy metal fan...you probably like Dave Matthews and think Hootie and the Blowfish fuckin rocked it.

Add all those post-metal butt rock bands to the list...pretty much all of 'em.

This "new" band opened for Judas Priest in...'82? '83?...can't remember which one...anyways, it was Great White, and they got booed off the stage, halfway thru the first song someone hit the singer in the head with a shoe thrown from the crowd and they stormed off.

Wahh.

Kingdom Come opened for AC/DC in Vancouver, BC, in something like 1990 or 91...they only made it one song before being booed off the stage as well.

Besides loving the bands I went to see, my second favorite thing about heavy metal concerts when I was a kid was that if the opening act sucked, they never made it thru their set wink

On the other side of that coin...Twisted Sister opened for Iron Maiden, again in 82 or 83, and they kept getting encores until they ran out of songs to play and Iron Maiden came on over an hour late...and the first thing Bruce Dickenson said when they finally got on stage was how awesome he thought Twisted Sister was, and encouraged another ovation for them.

Fish on...

By "cliquemates" you mean everyone except you and little twatty, right?

gtfo and you won't have a thing to worry about, Hamster.

Of course you won't because you and twatty are all about fagging out the place. Both of you have been very successful in that respect.

My taste has changed has changed since I bought my first 45 in '56. Some bands I liked like the Beatles but can't listen to them now. Never liked Led Zep, Lynard, Rush, Dead and a lot or others. I dj with vinyl sometimes & been dogged since I don't have a KZOK typical playlist.

Right,and then Boz and Nicky went on to do some killer [Bleeeeep!] while Steve Miller went on to sing "our loves in jeopardy...baby...ooo-oo-ooo-oooohhhh". He sucks.


As far as hating on the Beatles I don't get that either. They were fuckin awesome.

It's easier for me to think of bands I like than ones I don't care for.

Interesting to read about some that don't like the Beatles. Don't see that often. Although I find myself appreciating different Beatles pieces now than I did in the 60s. I guess that's called growing up. Always liked the Rolling Stones and still do, although Jagger's most recent efforts come up way short. I suspect he's just trying to milk the legend of the Stones for a few $$ more. Also liked the Doors, Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, Moody Blues, Iron Butterfly (sort of like a one night stand), Eric Clapton and Cream, Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young, Chicago, Bob Dylan, and oh so many more. Yeah, a big part of me is stuck in the 60s. What's not to like about that?

As a kid in the 60s I remember my folks asking "Is that supposed to be music?" I found myself thinking that a lot with much of the current crop. I agree with Salmo in that I think more about what I liked. Like him, too, I find that I like different tunes from the bands now.

Interesting how our tastes change over the years, for sure. I've been through a lot of phases with music, and years of playing it and learning new stuff has made me appreciate stuff I didn't like growing up. Likewise, it's made me think differently about some of my old favorites.

As an example, Nick mentioned John Mellencamp. I never cared for his stuff as a kid, but I heard "Jack and Diane" recently, and it was like I was hearing it for the first time. That guitar intro sounded sweet (especially coming out of the bridge), and hearing that chorus with wiser (OK, older) ears hit me hard: "Life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone..." that's good stuff, there.

Yeah... now that you mention it, I can't name another Cougar/Mellencamp tune I really like. I guess it's like Tom Petty said: even the losers get lucky sometimes.

Never liked Springsteen, either. "Born to Run" is a pretty good one, I guess. Everyone that likes him says seeing him live was what won them over. I wasn't about to pay the price of a Springsteen ticket to find out if that would work for me.

Ironically enough, that song Billy Joel wrote for said hottie wife was possibly his worst... and that's saying a lot.

the most over rated band of all time is the Rolling Stones but even they have a albums worth of of good music. Same with U2 the next big over rated band but the video of the rattle and hum concert was pretty good. Kiss sucks big black donkey dik and has zero that is even remotely listenable. the Beatles influenced by mcCartney is for teenage girls but the Lennon influenced stuff gives them two albums of great music. Almost all rap blows but dr Dre's Ring ding dong is great and eminem has a handful of good ones. Most punk is unlistenable. New country is for people that are half fag. If you don't like the doors and Dylan you most likely like new country. The doors absolutely live is on of the best live albums ever recorded and a double album at that , the holy grail of great bands. All Dylan is good but the unplugged album is fantastic. The whole hair band genre is an embarrassment to mankind.def leopard is like hearing a dog with diarehea try to sh!t his lungs out. Most metal is for infants but Sabbaths black album fits in the holy grail category and if you watch the video rock in Rio by iron maiden it's great too.

Bruce Springsteen
Billy Joel


These would be near the top of my list too. I mean U2, wtf do people hear in that boring band? Eagles...they were always another CSNY wannabe band to me. (Ok, the Felder/Walsh dual lead thing was cool.)

And Billy Joel? The only thing of his I ever liked was his ex-wife, Christie. And wtf did she see in him, anyway?

FF, I sort of liked Jack and Diane too, but anything else by Johnny Cougar sent me running for the barf bucket.

The best part of being forced to go to Springsteen concerts was that I could freely boo all night long and no one knew any better.

Billy Joel is getting added to my list along with the Grateful and Dave Matthews band.

One of my favorite Priest songs. I regret not seeing them live. Nice guitar solo at 2:10.

Artists that have been overplayed at nausea, is kinda different than sucking. Still like Rush, but I might be a lesbian. Like Priest too, but I'm pretty sure we weren't after the same game.

Yeah, Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main Street are horrible albums............just like Revolver and Abbey Road.

Oh wait...........no they aren't - they are fantastic albums and only a complete fucktard like Us and Them would even make such a fuckin' idiotic claim. Not surprising considering his unjustified arrogance, though.

What the fu.ck is wrong with you clowns? Billy Joel's Piano Man is a great album - so is Green Day's Dookie and Nimrod. You don't like some of their work? Then go find something else to listen to you fuckin' whiners.

This thread is just a bunch of fuckin' donkeys who have never created anything worth a sh!t getting all sandy about musical artists that HAVE created something worth a sh!t.

Fuc.k this thread, and fu.ck anyone who thinks their worthless contributions to the world are more important than albums that mean something to people.

"I dj with vinyl sometimes & been dogged since I don't have a KZOK typical playlist. "
"What do you do,get hired for parties and play Benny Goodman and Count Basie for 20 year old ecstacy ravers?"

Good one, RobertF. Style points for that one. It just might be a good idea. The last wedding I did was mostly vinyl 45 & lp roots & culture, lover's rock, soul covers & some concious dancehall styles of reggae music. With reggae music, skank is a verb & not a noun.

Since I'll be 70 on my next b-day, most of the folks I play for are a bit younger than me. I try to play danceable tunes & some '60's rock make people do the hippy dance & I can't abid the hippy dance.

You're funny. Boogerflicker's not bad, but I can think of at least a couple plays on my handle that would be much more offensive (assuming that's the effect you're after). I mean, how about Dicklickr? Too easy!

Did I imply that I did not like Elvis? As it happens, I was never a big fan, but there's a lot worse being named in this thread. My question was taken from the scene in Pulp Fiction where Mia Wallace asks Vincent Vega if he's a Beatles man or an Elvis man, the premise being that all men are one or the other. Does your hatred of both those rock icons mean you're not a man at all?

Food for thought....

Word on the street is that Christie Brinkley is now dating Johnny Melloncrap. That women, while still extremely hot for her age, has just the worst taste in music. Bruce and Elton will probably be next. Not that she'll get very far with Elton, but she'll try anyway. Just stay away from Bowie you slut!

Sheesh! All the fag talk and accusations had me back in junior high there for a moment. Enough already! Take that crap out to the alley, like men, er fags, er what-the-hell-ever you are. I want to read what it is that you like or dislike about various musicians because I'm interested in learning more about music. Maybe the Darkside isn't such a good place for that. On the other hand, this is where some of my friends, who have opinions about music, hang out, so why not?

I'm with Dan S. regarding Billy Joel's Piano Man. If music is the combination of rhythm, melody, and harmony, then Piano Man is solid gold in more ways than one. Maybe it doesn't appeal to you, but that doesn't make it bad. It's only bad if you can substantively pick it apart within the framework of musical structure.

And what's with the Rolling Stones hate? Saying "the Stones are D-bags" is shallow and empty as criticism goes, making the criticizer the D-bag. How about something substantive? Otherwise your opinion is less useful than your asshole.

Several of you dislike the Eagles. I don't get it; I think they're really good. I know a former bass guitarist who doesn't like them either. But his criticism was that "they are too clean, too pure, too perfect . . ." He likes to jam on guitar, but that's not the purpose of every piece of music. I don't see why "clean" makes a piece "bad."

When I look back on the rock that I liked so much in my youth I realize that for the majority, the lyrics were really teeny bopper juvenile. But since the musicians were teens or 20-somethings, it amazes me that any of it includes some kind of intellectual message. And those tend to be the tunes that best stand the test of time.

OK then, get back to your usual Darkside fag festing . . .

Salmo - its just personal taste. Some people like some kinds of music and others like other kinds. Robert F seems to really love the hard stuff. Some on here don't like the hard stuff at all. Its just the way it is.

Personally, I really dislike truck commercial rock and that's my problem with John and Bruce. While their music may be structurally sound, how many songs do they have about "America"? It's like they know that as long as they sing about "America", they will have paycheck after paycheck after paycheck. It's not creative, its commercial crap meant to fill their wallets. I'd also put later Bob Seger into this category.

All that being said, what kinds of music are you wanting to learn about or are you interested in? There is some good modern stuff out there, but you have to look really hard these days to find quality and not commercialism. Give us a lead on your tastes and I bet the fellas here can turn you onto some good stuff.

An addendum...if you are really into any "country" band that wasn't formed before about 1983, then you aren't really into country music. Calling new country music "Country Music" is like Kanye calling hip hop "the new rock and roll".

Fish on...

First off Taste is subjective. Some people are only exposed to
What they hear on the radio others dig into various genres to explore different sounds . Mcdonalds is the largest restaurant company and Walmart is the biggest retailer just because they are popular it does not make it the best.

Just because someone is talented does not mean they are all good. Billy Joel is is talented but his song writing does not compare to Bernie Taupin and Elton . Listen to them side by side and Elton blows Bj away pun intended. Elton is an equal if not better piano player than BJ. Elton likes BJ they toured together.

The stones even in their early years copied the style of other acts. They are not innovative and they do not have the best position players. The Who on the other hand had one of the best at every position. Townsend is an abosulte genius. Moon is considered one of the top 3 rock drummers ever even with a time signature that was all over the place. Entwhistle is considered to be the gold standard of rock bassist. Daltry is a great front man not the best voice but that's not a requirement of front men . You can say the exact same thing about Zepplin. Sure the stones have some great songs but the majority are average.

It's interesting that people get bent because someone does not like their taste in music. But the stones still blow and their fans are pedestrian. Most of them live in planned neighborhoods with catchy names like chestnut hills .

"Personally, I really dislike truck commercial rock and that's my problem with John and Bruce. While their music may be structurally sound, how many songs do they have about "America"? It's like they know that as long as they sing about "America", they will have paycheck after paycheck after paycheck. It's not creative, its commercial crap meant to fill their wallets. I'd also put later Bob Seger into this category."

Nick, good comments, and giving it a thought, I agree. Yeah, I know it's about personal taste, but it's interesting to know what's influencing that taste.

Jerry Garcia, me neither.

Stam, you were making complete sense to me right up until your desert island list. I never woulda' guessed, except maybe Willie Nelson. Maybe our age difference explains part of it, but Nirvana is more my kids' era than yours.

Todd, if Kanye called hip hop the new rock and roll, then he's one positively moronic f'er.

Salmo - don't give up on the "newer" stuff (relatively speaking). Most of the music I listen to is from the 60's and 70's which is my parents generation, but I still try to keep up with the times. At 40, I'm exactly from the "grunge" and "old school" rap generation. I have eclectic music tastes and am known to play an old country song, then Motown, then psychedelic rock, then wrap up with some metal or rap or 80's hairbands or 80's Brit. My friends hate it when I get control of the stereo because they want to listen to one kind of music and I want to listen to it all.

Good music transcends space and time both forwards and backwards.

This one may not be for everyone, but I love it. A perfect blend of multiple generations. My favorite band of all time is Floyd and I love fuzzy down tuned psychedelic rock, so hearing the younger kids embrace it gives me hope for the future. What was once old can be new again I guess...

Tame Impala - Elephant

This. The Who had it all.

But I always thought Daltry was a great rock singer, before he got too old. In fact, I consider the "Roger Bros" the best rock singers. Roger Daltry and Paul Rodgers. Too bad Paul Rodgers rarely if ever got a good song to sing.


Speaking of great singers, don't forget the ladies--Aretha and Linda R. [/quote]

We will find out in two weeks when they come to the key. I watched a concert vid from last year and they still sound good.

Wow...great thread so far. Pretty solid music, and great insults even if they were alcohol fueled.

Music is only as good as the occasion; if I'm getting ready to fight or fish Reiter ponds(or both); rock, metal.... going to work; country, classic rock, etc....

Today it was Tool, Counting Crows, Shine Down, and Clint Black.....lol

Robert F - you forgot Kitty or Bubblegum Metal from Japan. smile

The Who just plain rock
Jethro is pretty OK. Not my favorite but not too shabby
Talking Heads is another solid selection

The only concert I made it to this summer was the Doobies @ the Woodland Park Zoo Concert Series. It was a DAMN fine show. Full line up packed stage. Who knew you could rock out at the zoo? I highly recommend it if you have the means.

Just shows there's no explaining taste in music when you hate Fleetwood Mack, Jimmy Buffet, and Jefferson Starship. None of these would be near the top of lists of best bands or musicians, but they have produced a lot of good music enjoyed by millions.

For example, Jimmy Buffet is an OK guitar player, an OK singer, but is an outstanding marketer. I can see that, but the music world would also be a poorer place without Margarittaville and A Pirate Looks at 40, along with a few others.

Ok how can anyone hate the Rolling Stones seriously? Especially the albums with Mick Taylor.

And for those hating on Fleetwood Mac,which band? The one with Buckingham/Nicks that sold multi millions of records or the one with Peter Green which was fkn awesome? I can't hate on either .

But to each their own I guess. I have a very open mind musically. But when you suck you suck. Like these people:

Matchbox 20
Richard Marx
Don Henley
Motley Crue(come on musically?they are rotten)
Danzig
REM(I want to punch Michael Stipe in his whiny face!!!!)
Elvis Costello*yawn*




Let's talk about REM. College radio. What a fkn joke. What a [Bleeeeep!] horrible whiny depressing band. I want to light myself on fire whenever I hear them. I can't see anything redeeming about them. Bunch of hideous sucked up sickly looking bastards playing mandolin suicide music. They could possibly be the worst band ever.

Dontcha think there should be a mandatory retirement age for old rockers? Maybe 59, 62, or whenever they draw their first social security check. They could still work and keep their benefits, as long as they played in an assisted living facility, or any VA managed institution. Some of these fogeys are going to keep at it until they die tragically in an onstage accident involving their mobility device. That will sadden and disappoint everyone in the audience, but the NASCAR fans.

Musically speaking, it's kinda like what Jay Leno once observed, "Old geezers can make love last all night, BUT who wants to make love to an old geezer all night!"

I have a lot in common with a bunch of you, but it's interesting to me that just about everyone named a band I like a lot as one of "the worst." Just goes to show how truly subjective art appreciation is.

For example, f4b's list had me nodding quite a bit, but somehow, Tom Petty makes his list, and I think Tom Petty has been really good for a really long time (though I didn't much care for his music as a youngster). RobertF's list was more or less right on for me, except for Elvis Costello and REM. Elvis Costello and the Attractions are one act I'm very sorry I wasn't able to witness live in the 70s. Costello was a solid guitarist, vocalist, and lyricist, and brothers Bruce and Pete Thomas were one of the strongest rhythm sections around, for my money. There's a live album, which may have only been available with the box set that came out in the 90s, that was recorded somewhere in Canada in 1978, that is anything but boring (my opinion, of course). Of course, I also like the albums from that time period, so.... REM, who were never my favorite, I believe made a lot of melodic, creative, original music, which is more than I can say for what I would consider a bad band. That said, I agree that Michael Stipe is a whiner... which brings me to a point:

I think frontmen (or frontwomwen) are the most polarizing factor in whether or not a lot of us like a band. There was a time in my life when I lamented how much credit and attention singers got versus the "real" musicians (I'm a drummer, so I have a bit of a street cred complex). I've since developed a better appreciation for what singers do, but looking back, I think singers, being the personality most openly expressed in the band, have done the most to mold my initial opinion of a given band. At least in the case of popular music, if a singer rubs you wrong, regardless of the reason, you're probably not going to be too fond of the band, since it's almost impossible to filter vocals out of recorded music.

Not all should retire, for instance "Pink Floyd" IMO the best band of all time. Gilmour is in a class of his own....again, IMO. Any band playing at the Puyallup Fair should hang it up. :>)

Anyway, today's "country" music has given one of the most important genres of American music a bad name. True country music is still alive and well in places where commercialism can't corrupt it. There's lots of good stuff in Texas, and in some places you'd never suspect. Heck, here's a guy from Chicago singing about the Nashville scene. He's definitely a yankee, but his style is pretty true to tradition.

Robbie Fulks - F*** This Town

Here's another one that makes me tap my toes and chuckle:

I Told Her Lies

Heck, even Ween (one of my faves) gets in on the action sometimes:

Piss up a Rope

Anyway, it's not just about how old it is. Even though I'm sure many of you will think this stuff sucks, too, I can say that I think there are good examples of every genre; yes, even rap, out there.

Believe what you want. I'm just saying that when I saw Pink Floyd (well, the iteration at the time), the people around me sure didn't look or smell like they were Mitt Romney or John McCain type voters.

WGAF, you take things way too serious here. For the record I don't like Mitt and cant stand McCain. You're not as smart as you think you are.

Enter Hank 3, here, just to keep the thread alive.

Stuck on an Island,

The Cult
AC/DC
Anything with Chris Cornell
Rush... yeah that's right I said it.
Any Roy Orbison.

Don't care for Taylor Swift. I'll listen to some country, but last few years, not so much.

Indeed, but if you consider the whole body of work, I think they're some of the most talented dudes around. They've tried just about every pop style there is, and IMO they've pulled it all off quite well. Lots of goofy songs (huffing ScotchGuard will do that over time), but lots of real gems as well.

Would be fun to fish with Mickey someday. Seems like a pretty down-to-Earth dude.

I like the blues - Chicago, Delta or Jump Blues which provided a big part of the foundation of rock & roll.

Since it's Billy Ward's birthday, here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpQuNY3XFI0

Another dude is blues shouter Big Joe Turner:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJsod7Lgn8E

Or Big Mamma Thorton singing a tune Elvis covered:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoHDrzw-RPg

I wonder where it would have gone if Elvis, Pat Boone & the other 'acceptable' singers hadn't been pushed forward in place of the real musicians creating a new musical genre'.

The Cult is definitely on my list of Island choices... I love how they reinvented their sound in so many of their albums.

back when hard rock was quality! these kinds of guitar players are up in years now. i'll take this style over modern hacks any day. Michael schenker is very similar.

Deep Purple with blackmore.



it's more than confusing to explain the bands that were apart of the Deep Purple/Rainbow tree.

Bruce Springsteen. I had a room mate who loved the guy and would play his crap 24/7. He always sounded like he was singing while taking a very difficult sh!t to me.

P.S. Rainbow rocks!

Journey, wont even post a video. Steve Perry was a real dickhead at the airport in Santa Maria, Ca, he needed a seat to get to San Francisco as he was late for a concert. He thought I should give up my seat, threw a pussy fit. I had been at VandyLand working for three weeks and I was going Home. No one was getting in my way.

Atta boy Bob. Working out of town can change a guy. I actually used to be a pretty nice guy. Flying home, I wouldn't give my seat to Russell Wilson, even if he was late for a game. Steve Perry....pffft , next plane kid. Good to hear you stood your ground. I can just see the flight crew trying to encourage you to give your seat up. Journey might just top the list for popular bands I could give a chit about.
