Maybe this is not the music for you.

You probably should have started with Freak Scene.

You are probably right. But I wanted the clip with Tweedy in it to make a point.

Nice one Pal, I really appreciate your attempts to broaden my musical horizon.

 

 

Tragically, Dinosaur Jnr sound nothing like The Four Tops.

 

 

Neither band sang at Woodstock, its probably why it rained on the day.

 

 

Peace, love and soul songs.

I’d have started with this.

 

 

Great band, seen them many times. J rocking the full on Gandalf look these days.

America put a man on the moon to escape nonsense like this.

 

 

Beam me up Paddy, I've lost the will to live,

 

[Jose Jones]

Wilco would surely be in with a good shout, and the Flaming Lips. Both better and more original than Blink182 or the Killers.

 

I don’t even particularly like them but are the New York Dolls in?

I seem to recall they were mentioned on a few lists, so probably not.

[cochyn]

Weezer over Blink 182 any day of the week. 

 

Or Eels.

[manwiththestick]

I'm not afraid to say I really like Blink 182. Should they be in a top 64? No, not at all, but there are many others in the list that shouldn't be there also. 

 

[TheHowieLama]

Replace Jefferson Airplane with Grateful Dead - stop 

 

Get Zappa/Mothers in the tournament. Someone like Korn or Limp Bizkit out. Probably the only time those two bands have ever been in the same sentence as Zappa - full stop

 

Respectfully yours.

 

 

[Lee909]

Limp Bizkit are everything that went wrong with music in the late 90 and  early 2000

 

[TheHowieLama]

Yea man - both of those bands are horrendous. 

If you want a heavy band bring in somebody like Slayer. Tool would be better than either of those showers

[Sugar Ape]

I’ve just done a search and I think the only person who mentioned Limp Bizkit is Code. 
 

That says it all. 

[PestiRed]

This competition is going to test my years-long commitment to negging anyone who says anything positive about the worst group ever in the history of music (Eagles).

You're wrong and you will run out of negs.

I don't like The Eagles but if you're saying they're worse than Limp Bizkit or Bon Jovi then you're going to be wrong.

 

Some of the bands in this make The Eagles look like Igor Stravinsky.

Limp Bizkit pisses all over loads of the bands who are in here now.

 

They were a big part of those who mixed hip hop and rock early, and they have influenced loads of other bands.

 

 

 

 

 

[Section_31]

Has anyone said Green Day yet and, if so, how are we going to have them killed?

 

 

[Jack the Sipper]

 

 

Surprised to see that only two of us voted for the B52s. 

 

 

[Code]

I also notice Five Finger Death Punch have been left out, surely a mistake?

 

 

 

 

[Redder Lurtz]

What page number is the list on? Did the Distillers make it?

[The Midnight Rambler]

Weezer over Blink182 please Stig.

I think the five knuckle shuffle is more appropriate.
