Who remembers the guy who claimed no one listened to the Beatles b/c they were never played on his skiing trips?

That Jethro Tull is just a person in a band.

That Taylor Swift is entirely devoid of talent and her songs aren’t the least bit catchy.

That Tool has surpassed Metallica in recognition and stature in the rock and metal pantheon.

That Stone Temple Pilots were the weakest of the grunge acts of the 1990s.

The "Grunge" bands were from Seattle. STP was from San Diego. But if someone insists on lumping them in with the Seattle bands, I'd rank them behind all 4 of the big bands from Seattle.

And you would be mistaken.

I’ll give you Alice and Soundgarden, but STP’s far more dynamic and listenable than Pearl Jam or Nirvana, in my view. STP toyed with styles and textures; the other acts were one trick ponies and always so glum.

Nirvana was the biggest of the bands from Seattle. Pearl Jam has outlasted all of them.

STP was among the first of the bands to try to jump on the Seattle bands coattails. They are not Grunge.

World? Absolutely not. However, definitely one of the biggest rock bands to come out of Louisiana this century.

I really disagree with this. Nirvana had this raw energy that none of the other grunge bands beside Soundgarden could ever even come close to matching. Pearl Jam wrote better, catchier songs than STP. STP isn’t a bad band by any stretch of the imagination, but they’re clearly behind the other 4 big grunge bands in my opinion.

I sometimes wonder “what if?” Chester Bennington hadn’t died. The single they released with him was absolute fiya. They looked poised for a big come back.

All new music sucks.

No one makes good rock n roll like Led Zeppelin anymore.

Greta Van Fleet are a bunch of hacks because they sound too much like Led Zeppelin.

People insisting that rap/hip hop are legitimate sources/forms of music.

I once saw a thread where people claimed the following artists were good:

Bruce Springsteen
Pearl Jam
Phish
Tool

It was the weirdest damn thing.
