The Beatles = Overated They had John Lennon and Paul to nullify that.
Jonas Brothers = Spawn of satan Thank you, sir, but they are for the kids, mind you.
Rolling Stones = Only good when high... only got popular when people got high... Also overrated.
Guns N' Roses = Famous because of slash... Guns N' Roses - Slash = Garbage I think the only one that was garbage from that band was Axl. He's a prick mind you.
Led Zeppelin = Another "Drug Famous" group When you are as talented as Zeppelin, like as Bonham and Plant, you can get by with that. There were sooooo many drug-famous bands back then, can't think of a band who wasn't. Very challenging....
Deep Purple = Washed up got lucky pioneer of alot of music I blame Smoke on the Water.
Pink Floyd = Overated "Drug Famous" band I've never heard a band that has ever sounded like them. I think they had a right to be.
Hannah Montana makes all these guys look good: Not at all true. She's corporate commercial pop throw up.
The thing is, you guys list all these famous bands, and clearly they are actually good. Why? Because that's how they became famous. You might not like them, but they are still quality bands because they appeal to their target listeners.
well if you think about it like that then all bands are good if they have any fans at all because one example is Nickelback. i hate them but they do have a large fan base if they're still together. at the same time someone may dislike the bands we like but we still think that they are good.
I, for one, love Nickelback. I just listened to a few songs again the other day. I was surprised at how raw they sounded. They don''t try to be new or wacky or super inventive. They're just regular rock, which is what I like about them.
The slow songs aren't as good as the fast ones like Animals or Fight For All The Wrong Reasons, which sucks, cos they're mainly the ones you hear on the radio.
Now as for the worst band...I'm putting Dragonforce up there. Their sound is almost entirely studio made, there's absolutely no technique to the guitar playing (it's just fast, that's it) and the lyrics sound like they just pulled a few phrases from fantasy books and rearranged them for each song. Plus they suck beyond belief live.
I haven't even bothered to listen to the Jonas Brothers. Never want to, either.
Same goes for Hannah Montana.
As for someone saying that without the Ramones, there wouldn't be punk, you are wrong, sir. Punk originated from The Clash and The Sex Pistols.

Nickelback is, unfortunately, what our culture knows as "regular rock". Let me tell you something. There was a time when Queen was "Regular Rock". Would you try to compare Nickelback to Queen? No.
They really are a stupid, commercial, waste-of-space rock band. Fuck anyone who calls them pop-rock. They are too heavy to be called pop. They are great musicians, too, my god.
Animals is good, but really, there are much better Nickelback songs, like Savin' Me, Never Again, Someday, How You Remind Me, and Woke Up This Morning.
Pop rock is a terrible genre to label these guys as. Seriously. Pop does not sound like Nickelback, AT ALL.
