Axl Rose is the most overrated front man ever.

    Thats even funnier than the idea that Axl isnt a great frontman...

    Let me see here... Geddy Lee..In a band that has been putting out music for some 30+ years...One of the most iconic voices and recognizable voices in all of music. And to top it off...One of the best bass players to ever live.

    Go jump on dance dance revolution and quit acting like you actually know music.

    This whole thread is stupid, all it is doing is trashing singers who've been in bands that have sold millions of records.

    They must be doing something right.

    That tool from metallicadramaqueen sucks, as does their drummerdramaqueen.

    If cant even know their names...shut ur mouth. Do you like metal at all? If you answered yes...Send a written note of thank you to both of those so called tools or guys that suck so bad. Without them Metal does not go mainstream.

    Those two tools wrote and recorded the best metal album of al time ALL TIME!! Master Of Puppets is still unmatched to this day.

    I guess its just the fact that they made your cheap ass pay for music. Go freaking figure right? A band puts out an album with teh hope sof making money off it. Nobody records an album and says "hey i hope a bunch of snot nossed kids can download this for free so we dont make any cash".

    But go on with your idiotic ideas about who actually puts out good music. Maybe if Metallica had wonr halloween masks and acted like idiots for your attention you would like them.

    Quick question-- When do you go on tour and how many albums have you sold?? My guess...NONE and NEVER!

    Hate Dave Matthews as much as you want....DMB was the most visited tour of the year last year. How did yalls tours go?

    You're right. Biebs, Nickleback, One Direction, Jonas Brothers, Creed... Awesome. Millions of records and sold out tours prove it. I would place both DMB and Coldgay on this same donkey level. You may disagree, but using success as an "above reproach" barometer is profoundly retarded.

    GnR were $$$. Obviously. Just as success, obviously, doesn't always equate to talent.

    The first four Metallica albums are absolute classics and their 5th is not my favorite but its cross over appeal was a remarkable achievement for a metal band.

    Early Metallica is great I agree. But they jumped the shark with the black album. Should have stated away from worrying about radio play. And bob rock for that matter.

    lol

    For my next trick I will patiently, yet patronizingly, explain that someday when you're far out of college, and DMB is co-headlining bar mitzvahs with Ace of Base you will look back upon your misspent youth with deep embarrassment.

    In fairness, I used to think Counting Crows were sweet.

    You wanna explain why you don't like them?

    Besides hating on the fans of course (understandable since most are insufferable douche canoes).

    He's an integral part of the band, how can he not be part of the discussion of what makes them great?

    Your statement would make sense if you were referring to Gibby Clark, but Axl? You lost me.

    Sans his singing style (which I don't think is even that unique), he offers nothing IMO.

    He was solid contributor in terms of song writing, take him out of the equation it's a completely different sounding band.

    You should find on youtube Guns N Roses at the Ritz 1988. The guy is in prime form and ripping it up. I love it, but hey to each their own.

    The fans are where the disdain began - and amazingly nothing has changed in that regard since they were a UVA garage band. Exact same d-baggery, different generation.

    I had an even greater loathing for the Dead for the same reason. Difference is that I could at least appreciate the Dead. I actually dig a handful of their songs. But Dave's mewling, warbling voice seriously drives me batshit. Every single song is "Crash" to me. Hackneyed saccharine pseudo-hippie-pop torture.

    First part is understandable but I have no idea how every song sounds like "Crash Into Me". Anything past Busted Stuff is crap sans Groogrux King anyways.

    I could be wrong. Next time I'm deeply suicidal I'll dig further into his anthology.

    Listen to three (and a half) albums only: Under the Table and Dreaming, Crash (skip Crash Into Me), and Before These Crowded Streets. Dabble with Remember Two Things and Busted Stuff. Skip Everyday, Stand Up and Away From the World.

    Check out Big Whiskey and the Groogrux King at your own risk.

    I also recommend finding old live albums (between years '94-'02). That's the glory years.

    I do know their names, and I know they have said really shitty stuff about other bands on stage for no reason, look up youtube and their remarks about Lane Staley. Also, they were the start of what brought down Napster, therefore, they are douches, and will most likey, burn in hell, wishing Lane Staley pissed some talent on their burning useless asses.
