I asked HIM to name 5 bands I listen to in order to illustrate that his claim is silly and without basis. Point made.

Rx Bandits
Opeth
Sepultura
Black Map
Deftones

The Wall is really not a good album.

You have your opinion, I have mine. I think Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars is one of the most contrived, pretentious albums ever made (and that is one of the claims made against The Wall). I don't dislike Ziggy Stardust, either. I just prefer The Wall and will take anyone to task who makes a ridiculous statement like "The Wall sucks," because its success and legacy say otherwise.

All shite, huh? You try too hard. I like how you include a basically unknown independent band like Black Map. They have a total of 4 songs that have been heard by anyone outside of their inner circle.

In what way? Of course it was planned to be a concept album.

So was The Wall, which was my point. You can't imply that The Wall is contrived then claim that Ziggy Stardust is amazing and expect to be taken seriously.

Ziggy had a different, spacey vibe compared to other concept albums.

The Wall took elements of Tommy and especially Quadrophenia and made it even more depressing.
