flotsam and jetsam eh, to each his own.
led zeppelin as much as i enjoy the music, they were the greatest at covering their cover of other work (mod a tune add some lyrics).
godsmack definitely suxxorz
metallica, same crap...over and over and over and over and...over
drowning pool
sepultura
danzig
white stripes (jack white)
fear factory
danzig
disturbed (ya i know but, gotta give draiman props)
and the list goes on, a lot of groups put out some good music and either fell apart or went too commercial...
I grew up listening to Flotsam and Jetsam and liked them for a long time.
It sucks when bands' attitudes will actually negatively affect my opinion of their music.
My band was on the roster with them when they rolled through town.
The local bands printed all the flyers ourselves, did radio commercials, sold all the tickets.
It was a huge success until Flotsam and Jetsam showed up (they were the headliner) 30 min. before they were to go on
with no gear, and proceeded to talk smack about all the other bands. They played by borrowing all my bands gear, (they brought guitars only)
convinced the promoter to give them all the cash, then took off to do a tour in Japan. Promoter got a broken nose and never promoted again
in this city.
Opening for Fear factory was completely the opposite, but that was in a larger venue about 200 miles away. They treated us great. I was kind "meh"
about their music till then, but I came around after that experience and listen to them all the time now.
