It certainly is. AS long as I see the Beatles at the top, I am pleased.

[saturnine]

as long as i see nirvana anywhere but top ten, i am also pleased

[Crusader]

Why was Purple Rain so low on your list? ;)

[saturnine]

not my list, champ. although i do like when doves cry

[CaptainRocket]

Where is the list from, if I may ask?

[mrs jesus]

the beach boys suck, there is entirely too much who on that list, no one really knows anything by jefferson airplane except for what.. two songs(?), meat loaf.. (???), chicago is crap, piper at the gates of dawn is crap, i like the sex pistols, but they should never be included on any top 100 rock albums list since they had no talent whatsoever, other than that, aenima, rumours, and superunknown make me happy.

 

i'm bored.

[saturnine]

i don't like a lot of stuff on that list, but my god, i've seen limp bizkit on lists like this. at least these people were using their heads.

[mrs jesus]

well, i guess.

 

but meatloaf? did someone just slip that in while the listmakers were outside smoking?

[saturnine]

it's one of the best selling albums of all time..

[mrs jesus]

is that supposed to mean something?

[HoboFactory]

Elton John doesn't belong. Tool's questionable also.

[mrs jesus]

Elton John doesn't belong. Tool's questionable also.

if you think tool is questionable, you've obviously never listened to aenima.

[HoboFactory]

Yes, that's the only possiblity.

[saturnine]

and thus the eternal list debate rages on.. why are they the greatest? influence? music? groundbreaking?

[CaptainRocket]

well, i guess.

 

but meatloaf? did someone just slip that in while the listmakers were outside smoking?

Alright, Mrs J, I am coming down there, we are getting shitfaced drunk and going to a kareoke bar to do 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light'

Then the light of god will shine on all the little children.

[mrs jesus]

chad, there is no way in hell that i would get up on a stage and sing in front of anyone, no matter how drunk i was.. but i'll clap for you. i'd whistle, but i don't know how.

[CaptainRocket]

Fine, I'll do both parts myself. and then I'll do my theme song, 'The Kid is Hot Tonight' and disappear into the Texas sunset...

[mrs jesus]

that's a whole lotta sunset, cowboy

[Dan #3]

Tool's questionable also.

You go to hell. You go to hell and you die.

[CaptainRocket]

I'm an Alberta boy. I'll fuck your sunset's ass.

[HoboFactory]

Tool's questionable also.

You go to hell. You go to hell and you die.

How typical...

[mrs jesus]

Tool's questionable also.

You go to hell. You go to hell and you die.

How typical...

fine

 

you go to hell

you go to hell and you BURN

 

(and mate with a demon)

[HoboFactory]

So amusing how defensive Tool fans get; the moment anyone places even the slightest shade of doubt on the god-like image to which Tool fans hold that Maynard character, they go all ape-shit.
