Crowded House are the greatest Australian band

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard would like to have a word with you...

Solo Don Henley > Solo Glen Frey > any Eagles album

Spoiler

they all suck

 

[wokeupnew]

That new song/album that everyone is gushing about and calling "amazing" - it ain't.

Large if factual

which one?

Edit: Is it Cyboogie?

 

[LeSamourai]

ELO > Queen

Hasslehoff is to blame for the proliferation of tech based warfare. If he could've just stayed the hell away from the Berlin wall we wouldn't be in this drone mess we're in.

The only good Weezer album is their debut...

The Blue Album isn't even anywhere close to my favorite from them. I'd put both Maladroit and the White Album above it - which are also the two albums I consider their best.

KGatLW had a better 5 album run in one year than Crowded House had in twenty.

Ehh. KGatLW are awesome. I just like Crowded House more... and they only have 7 albums.

You’re drunk...blue and Pinkerton are superior to any other album by them

I did like a lot of Maladroit when it was out. Most people love Pinkerton but I could never get into it.

Maladroit should have been the record they followed up Pinkerton with instead of Green. It's up there with their first two in terms of quality (and far exceeds the Blue Album for me).

Also the Red Album is underrated and has some of the band's most creative and enjoyable work on it.

I also liked Pacific Daydream more than Everything Will Be Alright in the End

Metallica only has three good albums and they are the first three.

I’m not sure this is a hot take so much as verifiable fact.

I think they have burst of good content through Load, Reload and Death Magnetic.

Also most of St.Anger is pretty good once you get ignore the horrible snare sound and sometimes terrible writing.

Brit Pop is boring
98% of the garage rock revival of the 2000’s is v.bad
Jack White is maybe the most overrated musician of my lifetime

This is my new favorite thread on this board. Thank you @Count_Vader!

You're welcome. I enjoy robust yet respectful musical debate. I will say Pulp, Blur and Oasis are the only good Britpop acts imo.
Jack White is good but I agree people put him on such a high pedestal. Then again, he's one of the precious few of mainstream rock that isn't stagnant and complacent.

Kate Bush has some of the worst vocals I've ever heard. Her songwriting/ instrumentation are PHENOMENAL but that voice sounds like a drunk woman trying to do a Bee Gees Impression
