More about Music.
Seriously, I’m really tired of bands that are absolutely, without a doubt, god-fucking-awful, yet somehow hit the mainstream and are eaten up by the yuppies.
Here is a list of bands/solo artists that don’t deserve the credit/fame/fortune they’ve been given:
Fall Out Boy
New Found Glory
Simple Plan
Dashboard Confessional
Something Corporate
Kid Rock
Limp Bizkit
Disturbed
Puddle of Mudd (what’s with the two D’s? Isn’t that clever !)
Saliva
P.O.D.
As I Lay Dying
Funeral for a Friend
Staind
Sum 41
Blink 182
Good Charlotte (!!!)
Creed
Trapt
My Chemical Romance
And here is a list of bands/solo artists that deserve more credit/fame/fortune than most of the bands around today (Note: there are too many to list here, so I will only name a few, mostly from the 1960s and 70s who defined rock ‘n’ roll as a culture, and revolutionized music as we know it … and some others that are personal favorites.):
The Beatles*
The Rolling Stones
The Kinks
Nirvana
Elliott Smith
The Shins :]
Pink Floyd
Led Zeppelin
Bob Marley
Jimi Hendrix
The Velvet Underground
Deftones
Tool
The Beastie Boys
The Clash
Bob Dylan
Johnny Cash
The Mars Volta
Sonic Youth
Cream
The Who
* Just in case you forgot how cool the Beatles really are, or if you think you’re too hardcore to dig them, check this shit out:
Getting Better by the Beatles:
“I used to be cruel to my woman, I beat her
and kept her apart from the things that she loved…”
…ok, that is all.
