I'd like to see Glenn Danzig and Henry Rollins in a cage fight. Now THAT would be a spectical!

Danzig would just summon some kind of primordial demon thing that would eat Rollins for lunch. Barring that, Rollins would pound the crap out of Danzig.

LOL no

And as for Berry. Consider the time he was in when those songs came out.

We're talking people doing "the bunny hop" was being wild and crazy
so Music like Berrys Style was over the top

Thars different genres of music.

You might be able to see some connection between two or fifty of them.... like in your example.... lets say "rebellion"... shared 'tween Berry and Zed Leppelin. But that doesn't make them the same genre of music.

Just 'cuz Chuck got all crazy doesn't make him head bangingly metal.

The Pistols *were* and still *are* Rock 'n Roll. It was never about complexity (though each musician was exceptional with their respective instruments, Glen Matlock most of all). It was about raw power, the lyrics, and the message. A genuine "we don't care about what you think of us" attitude.

I love the Sex Pistols as much as the next punk does but if you ever see a video recording of any of their live performances, you'll see a member of the band with his instrument not plugged it. For live shows at least, the stage manager was the bassist because Sid Vicious wasn't all that good of a bass player.

And the Sex Pistols were a marketing gimmick. Yep, that's right a gimmick. Their manager/producer and creator, Malcom Mclaren, created the Sex Pistols to help boost sales of his clothing store. so while they did put out good music (with a little production help on their records) they were basically a corporate tool.

Don't get me wrong, it is a complex work of musical splendor. But Pink Floyd were full of themselves. They were suppsoed to be rebellious, but they didn't do anything to rebel! And talk about selfishness: They didn't (and still haven't) paid those kids who sang the chorus on "Another Brick In The Wall". There's more to music than the "music".

It's not Rock 'n Roll. It's Psychedelic Guitar-Based Pop.

LOL! You never listened to Sid Barret era Floyd and withholding money from those little brats is the ultimate one can give.

Funniest Grammy ever was the year Jethro Tull won for best metal band.

How come nobody mentioned Tull yet anyway? Or Genesis... Pre-"Trick of the Tail".
