Greatest band ever?

[tklint24]

I believe that Rage against the Machine is the greatest and most influential band of the past 17 years (they came out in 1990 with their self-titled album) At the same time, i think Air sucks....comments?

[Boourns]

Stop listening to the local hard rock station. Thank you.

Their self-titled album came out in June of 1992, douche.

Some fan you are.

I hope you have diarrhea during their set

[Mr.Nipples]

*sigh*...this again.

[RATMan]

I've heard it before
Don't wanna hear it again

[captncrzy]

Stupidest thread ever...

Most influential? Seriously.
Buddy Holly
James Brown
Sugarhill Gang
Joy Division
Chuck Berry
Metallica
The Velvet Underground
Led Zep
Elvis Presley
Elvis Costello
...just to name a few. I don't have time to list all of the bands that are definatley more influental.

[hangthedj112]

You've obviously never heard Radiohead.

[bartelby]

i second that

[Changoloco]

You obviously haven't been to your local open-mic lately. Everyone knows that this is the "Greatest Band of all Time". RATM can't shake a stick at the D.

[SojuGorae]

Where's that photo of Rage Against The Machine naked?

Those motherfuckers had some serious size difficiencies.

[betao]

you can find it on wikipedia. The protest at Lolla 93

Yeah, that was an obvious one I missed!

rage is the greatest!

[Tylerdurden31]

Radiohead, Nirvana, Fugazi, At The Drive-In...all far more influential.

[Alchemy]

You don't deserve to speak.

[fober]

As popular as they were/are, they're certainly still unique.

I don't think their "sound" has since been recreated by another band.

You must have been smoking CRACK when you wrote this!!!! Most influential? AIR sucks? Pass the pipe!!!

[betao]

The only thing RATM has bragging rights for is being the most successful band to combine rock and rap. Period.

Their music is great, but they are certainly not the most influential band of all time.

[thinnerair]

The Beatles, you retards.

[Sexecutioner]

Zep

[woogie846]

The Beatles, you retards.

Finally.

To name a few:

The Beatles
The Pixies
Radiohead
Queen

[hangthedj112]

Even in just the past 17 years there's quite a few bands better than Rage.

[matsuolost]

RA D IO HEAD

[Kampy]

Your personal pick would be Rage

My personal pick would be Radiohead

I like Air a lot. You don't.

We know you think RATM Rulez. go write it on your Trapper Keeper

[idrive1life]

RA D IO HEAD

Eureka ... that's the password in the Radiohead presale!

[sydaud]

The Beatles, you retards.

Yeah, pretty much (but I guess it wouldn't be much of a thread)----you want serious, introspective music done right? Listen to the first three cuts on Beatles For Sale : "No Reply", "I'm A Loser" and "Baby's In Black". They cornered the market on pop, psychedelia and, with just those three songs above, were decades in front of "emo".....

I'm 21, so the beatles and james brown and shit aren't in my era. The only group that may be more influential is Radiohead, and perhaps Nine Inch Nails, but Rage is the greatest.

[boarderwoozel3]

Metallica is bigger than Rage.

Your age has nothing to do with their level of influence.
