I think all of you are fags. I mean i don;t even like most ok the bands any of you mentioned but still non of you know sh*t about music.
I love modest mouse but i do understand what the thread starter means, they have such a particular fan base and when they sold out and put one of their songs on a car comercial they lost alot of credibility with the indie rocker fans. So i do give you that one even though i love them.

As far as NIN goes I have no freaking idea why you would think that. Now im not a huge fan of them but still Trent reznor practically created industrial rock and year from now kid will think that they are bad ass all over again.

Now Weezer. Ok Blue album kicked butt, everyone agrees fans, critics, and the like. Pinkerton Great amongs fans (I'm dumb shes a lesbian oh yeah) but everyone else thought it sucked.
Green- a great shot at redemption they rewon all thier old fans back and gained new ones despite the way to poppy songs. That leaves us with Malidroit, ok this was a downer, but give weezer another ten years without putting out anything and they will be cool again.

Ok the dude who said nirvana I have to rip on you. Ok I hate nirvana I think that they suck and that the only reason that they got popular was because kobain killed himself. But I will never argue the fact that they were probably the most influential band of the ninties. One more thing even though i totally dissed them I will give nirvana fans this nevermind is a great album.

And one more band linkin park ok way over played but none the less they already proved me wrong when i said that they would fade after the first cd. And i was wrong they came out with a very solid follow up and all the teenie boppers love it and want to bone chester.

The one band that i do agree with though is limp bizkit. Not because their music suck persay but because fred durst is a freaking retard and pisses off way to many people. And he just wont let up he still thinks that he is cool and really he showed us all what a stupid f$ck he is.

2 songs, and an album, and now they're gone. I remember seeing them do a live act and it was so mimed. They were the biggest thing for about 2 months, I still jack off to that "All The Things She Said" video though.

Talk about not knowing shit about music. You pratically just gave Nine Inch Nails full credit for something that started pratically ten to fifteen years before Pretty Hate Machine was released.

I mean shit, he didn't even put guitars and drum machines together till Broken.

You seem to know about as much about music as the fucking entertainment section in my newspaper.

This is about being hip, not selling records. And not one of the bands listed here is being hailed as progressive and all that stupid shit they call bands when they are 'breaking new ground'.

I respect bands like NIN and Tool for the ways that they dont have to whore themself out on every little thing. ie pepsi etc

You dont see them on TRL, MTV Cribs or doing an interview for every album on Leno. Because their music sells it self, not their image. Maynard comes across as an asshole because he doesnt talk to the fans or let them backstage, because its about the music not thier bling bling.

no, moron, he did not create industrial rock. reznor is to industrial music what cobain is to punk. i.e. diluted poppy ripoffs of the real thing. go buy a godflesh cd

you mean the only reason nirvana is STILL popular is because cobain killed himself. nirvana was huge, dumbass. obviously you dont know what youre talking about. "most influencial?" try most influenced. the pixies, the melvins, so many other bands had been doing what nirvana tried years before, and ten times better.
nevermind is no better than any korn or linkin park album.

Does everything have to have a label? Your playing stereotypes.

People like what they like, I dont dress like some NIN/Tool fans might. If that was the case you would think I listen to Justin Timberlake.

Its all good though, kl0p.
