Here are the correct answers by the way:

Pretty soon it will be time to pick the top three of the naughties (2000-2009)...Who do you think will be the top candidates???

1960's
The Beatles
The Rolling Stones
Bob Dylan

1970's
David Bowie
Pink Floyd
Queen

1980's
The Clash
The Pixies
Talking Heads

1990's
Radiohead
Green Day
Oasis

Can't believe how slow moderation on this is. Very quick to slap warnings on people posting a fat man's arse.yet a frequently banned troll is able to continue to post his inane bullshit from his blog.

i will not list my 3 favorite artists from each decade... i will not.

60's-Beatles, Stones, Bob Dylan
70's-The Grateful Dead, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd
80's-Talking Heads, The Replacements, The Cars
90's-Nirvana, Phish, Jane's Addiction
00's-The White Stripes, Radiohead, My Morning Jacket

I have a hard time putting Dylan on my list simply because he is not a band. He put together some great bands, but he himself was not a band. Similar to Neil Young.

I think the Talking Heads best work was in the 70s, but they started out the 80s pretty strong too. Same goes for teh Cars

I'm not a fan of Radiohead or Phish, or the Rolling Stones, but all of your choices are pretty good.




I thought your picks were pretty good until the 90s. Remember I said the 3 Best bands, not the 3 worst...

maybe because regardless of howmuch ace annoys you, so far in this incarnation nothing he's done has actually impacted one's ability to enjoy the board. a minimal amount of ignoring is all that's necessary if these types of threads really bug you that much.

60's - beatles, kinks, velvet underground
70's - springsteen & e street, clash, who
80's - costello & the attractions, replacements, r.e.m.

they are all better then Modest Mouse and BJTM

is Mitchell president of the board or something??

springsteen??? Costello???? Pretty good picks other than that. What about the 90s though?



That's just crazy talk. Modest Mouse and BJTM were two of the few truly original and creative bands of the last 20 years. Sure BJTM had alot of influences, but the way they processed those influences and organically created something completely new from those influences can't be beat. Great song writing, great instrumentations, great riffs, the whole package.
Modest Mouse can be hit or miss, and they sometimes wouldnt know when to edit themselves, but when they were on, they were top notch.
Radiohead on the otherhand suffers from trying too hard to sound original and end up sounding like a bunch of half baked ideas all crammed together. Green day...I mean come on. Green Day??? Good lord.
Same goes for Oasis, they just make me wanna puke--I couldnt name one song by them, honestly.

classic songwriting.

So when he was banned permanently I missed the condition that he could come back in a less offensive manner. How when this board goes apeshit at LOPP spam on the etc side it's suddenly fine to mass promote your awful blog by starting such inane bullshit topics every day on the music side. Guess I'm the chump for boarding here still in 2009 and making an effort.

Not get enough answers to these elsewhere?

I'm in complete agreement here. If someone is banned, than would indicate permanence.
If he was "suspended", don't say he was "banned"

Totally agree with Mitch on this one. I want to hear about music not about this guys blog. Seems like everyday there is a new one of these shit threads.

You're joking right?

As usual Mr Mitchell is on the money. Why is Mr Mitchell not a mod?

60s: Wu-Tang
70s: Wu-Tang
80s: Wu-Tang
90s: Wu-Tang

That's not even the half of it, this guy was the absolute worst. Makes Montana look the model template of how to board.

Would do nothing but start pointless list threads, start 'controversial' debates framed with piss poor arguments, insult boarders and their famalies left, right and centre and mainly just smeared shit all over the board.

Don't like pulling the 'you weren't there' card on people but it's relevant here. No surprise that Troll sympathiser elco doesn't spot this black hole boarding technique so beloved by Montana being imployed again.

He doesn't care what your answers are he just wants blog traffic or for you to waste time answering so he can tell you are wrong.

It's a weird day when I agree with Mitchell.

I take it back: I got nothin' on this guy.

Kind of the same thing that Mitch is saying about you telling people that there picks are wrong. What the hell do you mean by "Here are the correct answers by the way?"

So Rockism 101 is always correct.

Can you ask Rockism 101 how Obama should treat the war on terror? Or if we should start using stem cells more often? Or if abortion should be legal?

You really, really don't want him talking about abortion.

Or pretty much anything else. Even I managed to figure it out.

hey Mitch,

why do you think Montana is a "bad boarder"?

and yes, i was being serious about Oasis. they are better then Modest Mouse. the end.

so, instead of banning Ace, the powers that be have moved his topics to Plug One

bunch a fuckin' pussies

Should've put him in the SO Store thread. Then someone would view it.

Hey:

1) The Ace thing is a (pretty damn likely) theory, but just a theory nonetheless.

2) Yeah, I thought Plug One was the place for pimping one's blog.

3) I wasn't privy to the behind-the-scenes of Ace's earlier departure. I'll catch up with Rufus and Jason about it.


Regardless of whether this is Ace, I haven't seen anything particularly egregious out of this person. But you guys go ahead with the stoning in the meantime.

Did someone say abortion?

For when you delete this in a minute.

none of the images on your link are currently being displayed correctly, so i have no idea what your picks are since you didn't label anything.
