Same here. Pearl Jam is about the only thing I like that came out of that mess.
Skits/unnecessary sound effects on any album are awful.
Except the cannons on For Those About to Rock. Those were totally necessary.
Good choice actually. In Utero was a fantastic album. Nirvana's best.
Queen is never a bad choice, but for the 70s I have a soft spot for Since I've Been Loving You.

I probably said this because I like complaining about it, but I saw GZA do LS at the Metro and he blew through it in like 15 minutes. He only did his parts and moved on from the song. The intros to the songs were longer than when he was rapping
Also, he played it out of order. What the fuck? He started with the intro for LS and then went into something else. That was the biggest boner killer ever
Yeah Illmatic is still absolutely killer. Anyone listen to Nas's album from last year? Best work he has done in a long, long time.
For best song of the decade? Nah. Bohemian Rhapsody has so many levels and some of the best vocals ever in a song.
Best thing he's done since Stillmatic. World's an Addiction gives me chills.

GZA is horrible live. Ghostface and RZA are great live though.
Led Zeppelin just ripped off other bands. Fucking cunts.
Robert Plant's voice makes me want to jam a pen through my ear drums.
Stop making me agree with you cunt.
Wow, I had never heard this before. This is really really good.

Now that I think about it, this is one of my favorite bands of all time.

"Grunge" was such a mish-mash of styles anyway. They labeled a bunch of very different bands as grunge. Nirvana's sound was predominantly punk influenced, Pearl Jam had clear punk, classic rock, and even metal influences...Soundgarden was heavily metal influenced...Alice in Chains was essentially hair metal influenced.
I'm inclined to agree. Saw GZA two years ago, wasn't great, he actually got mad with the audience at one point. Ghostface and Raekwon were incredible though.
Check out the album, it's really good.

Yeah I know, but I still read people saying positive things about his most recent tour (when I saw him). I'm just guessing people are dumb or just overplaying how good he was.
I need to go to more hip hop shows. The ones I've been to have left a bad taste in my mouth (specifically Wu-Tang and GZA). I saw Moosh and Twist, these two 19 year old dudes play a show and they tore it up which was exciting. They did that whole sing-song-y sissy chorus thing that Mac Miller and the likes do which was disappointing.
If you are between 25 and 30, then this song is your anthem. Who doesn't love this song during that age?

Their influences are definitely on full display. I think, though, that with their first couple albums they're the perfect summation of their influences. The band itself was FUCKING ridiculous too. Robert Plant is easily the "worst" member of the band. Jimmy Page, JPJ, and Bonham are/were behemoths.
Zeppelin, to me, was picking a bunch of really awesome influences and having fucking amazing musicians (Page, JPJ, and Bonham) sum up what was so great about music in that era.
I knew Dastardly would fuck it up.
Not as bad as that Digimon soundtrack guy. What the hell was that!?apocalidiot

This is why I <3 you two.
This is probably my favorite SW song though:

I won't disagree with this.
Led Zeppelin is like Rush for me. Great musicians in bands that are totally fucking ruined by the vocalist.
You're just posting the songs everyone knows, let's go with some good maybe not known as well songs of theirs:
How to disappear completely
Talk Show Host
And their best song in my opinion, for some reason I love listening to this song every time I'm walking on an airplane:
Fake Plastic Trees

Fuck off, down syndrome child.
Pearl Jam and Radiohead. Oh my god, literally what is wrong with you?
What are your favourite songs? I'm super curious now.
Uh oh Tabris is bragging about liking their other boring songs over the ones people actually like.
Nothing is wrong with me Tabby, thanks for your concern though.

There's one Zeppelin song for you then!
The Tragically Hip is awesome. It'll probably divide a lot of you, though, and I don't expect many Americans like them. They never really made it past Canada.

Hard to choose but if I had to it would be Zombie or Kamalas Too Nice. Zombie has so much energy, it's great
Do you have any faith for Deltron II?

Someone mentioned Queen earlier and I wanted to throw my favorite Queen song out there:

Christopher Lambert VS Freddie Mercury. *fap fap fap*

That is a laundry list of amazing music.
Definitely. I saw him in Oakland a couple months ago and he did a couple songs from it, they sounded great.
So what's your favourite songs then? Give us your top 5-10!

If you haven't checked out The Who's first album (My Generation), do it. The Who is one of those bands that have so many different styles and their first album is perfect in my opinion. It is on Spotify. Again, even if you don't really like the Who it's no doubt worth checking out. Catchy ass songs
That's so relieving to hear. Going by the demos he released, his delivery was boring as hell

Badass to all hell. This would be mine.
First heard it in a skate video in 1997, stuck it on my mixtape straight away.
The Who is fucking incredible. You're forgiven for Pearl Jam.
Weird, though. PJ is so ridiculously heavily Who influenced. Eddie is good friends with the band.
This post reminded me that Corky from Life Goes On put out an album once.
Enjoy fuckers:

Probably the only Zeppelin song I can listen to.
It's a crime how unknown he is.
CTRL+F Queen - No Results
He only worked with The Beatles on one song which isn't in their top songs.
But yeah, pretty amazing all of the good music he's been a part of.

Fantastic album. My personal favourite is this:
They really defined a new era of prog through this album alone.

The Who are so great. If any of you haven't checked out Live At Leeds, you're missing out on one of the best live albums ever put out (in my opinion). Also on Spotify, and theres like fifteen versions, which mostly include them playing Tommy all the way through on the second disk. But this tracklisting is tops
Definitely up there. The Band are fucking amazing.
Fuck Vanilla Ice for life for stealing this bass line.
