    I can't believe none of you mentioned The Beatles. Questionable to say the least.

    The Beatles, Wu Tang, The Strokes (the first two albums, the second two kinda suck, comparatively), Lil Wayne

    ^ The Beatles sucked and The Strokes newest album kicked ass (but the first two were better)

    Some of the former Beatles would agree with me there.

    Well, I have no clue what they think about the Strokes..

    Why would you say The Beatles suck?

    Angles was certainly better than that Impressions of Earth but it was a disappointment from the band that, in my opinion, put out the two greatest rock albums since probably the Pixies quit.

    Cause despite some genius song writing (mixed in with good, bad and terrible) they couldn't perform their own songs very well.

    They got better at it as they went on but they are probably the most overrated band ever (maybe besides Bing Crosby, back in the day =P

    Covers of their songs are way more likely to be better than their version than with any other band from the era.


    I was unsure about Angles at first, but once I got used to the sound, and was able to judge it discriminately, some of it was pretty great. Gratisfaction, Machu Piccu and Games come to mind, but I dunno which songs I'm talking about, really =P

    I love live music best but I don't get out much.

    Just saw the pixies a few weeks ago.

    My favorite song has been Beggarman (Gaelic Storm) for a few years now.

    Sublime is the only one of those that I know of, so I'll assume the rest suck.

    I'm listening to the ramones right now, just got a bunch of them, and some of the yeah yeah yeahs.
