Powerage5 Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 (edited) IRON MAIDEN 1? WtF!!!I EXPECT NIRVANA TO BE ONE CONSIDERING KERRANG FUCKING LOVE THEM Sorry, but I'm siding with Kerrang! on this one. Comparitively speaking, Iron Maiden had 13 strong albums (Becuase everyone knows that The X Factor sucked thanks to Blaze), 7 of which were not only immensely popular but also outrageously innovative and influential (Iron Maiden through Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son). On the other hand, GN'R had 4 huge sellers, altough many people tend to overlook Lies. Also keep in mind, Maiden has been around since '75, whereas Guns N' Roses (As the public views them) lasted from '87-'94.I mean, Iron Maiden was the definitive NWOBHM band. No one was able to write music as strong as Maiden, or put on a live show as good as Maiden. They set the standards for 90% of metal bands to come.Of course, musically, these two bands are uncomparable, Maiden was metal and GN'R was just plain rock.Oh, and to GNRSkidrow1, look at the timeframe; 1981-2006. Zeppelin disbanded in late '80. Edited November 22, 2006 by Powerage5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlashisGOD Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Great to see Emperor on the list. Bout time Black Metal gets its due greatness. But they are most definately better than Slipshit and Nirvana. But.... where the fuck is Mayhem on that list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOLDEN Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 (edited) Where the fuck is Motley Crue?!where they deserve to be :chef:Edit: Iron Maiden #1 doesnt bother me but no Van Halen does.Also I am very happy that ACDC didn't get #1...and I hope that if they uncluded 1980 ACDC would still be 4th, maybe 3rd.

AnEskimo Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Respectable list for the most part, not 100% accurate, but no one could ever be 100% on the dot.16. Fugazi17. Napalm Death18. Black Flag Not sure about Fugazi, but Napalm and Black Flag are fucking awesome. And it makes since on MOST IMPORTANT, not best, because Napalm Death was THE orginal grindcore, and Black Flag was a influential punk band for sure.

How the hell is KORN more important than RATM who basicly started the whole rap-metal wave.GN'R have been a much bigger influence to rockbands than Iron Maiden (credit to IM for keeping it up so long though).Why has is Red Hot Chilipeppers been totally ignored? Other bands I would've like to see on the list is Manic Street Preachers, Stone temple Pilots & Radiohead.And Bon Jovi well "Bon Jovi can suck my dick".

I like em, but weird.How can you say Metallica may have merited being that high 15 years ago, and then not say the exact same thing about GNR? I understand they lost members, but they havent done anything remotely interesting since the UYI albums. Metallica's 1st four albums destroys anything GNR ever did. GNR cant even touch any of those records. They are different styles, but when it comes to musicianship and originality, not even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNR cant even touch any of those records. They are different styles, but when it comes to musicianship and originality, not even close.I'll take no albums over a slow degeneration of talent any day. Metallica got progressively worse with each album after the Black album. The only thing that sounded remotely good since then was a rehash of their greatest hits with a symphony making them sound better. However, I'm tired of this argument, you can rehash it in a billion GnR vs. Metallica threads.Spaghetti was interesting and better than Mettallica's comparable Garage Inc.AFD is miles better than Metallica's first four albums (I'm pretty sure I'm not alone on this one, either). GnR is more musically diverse, and can pull off a heck of a lot more styles of rock than can Metallica. James is not a good singer, and they made a huge mistake when they estranged Mustaine. Besides, they are asses, and any credibility they may have been able to salvage by returning to their roots (taking them off the sellout path they took in the mid-late 90s) was destroyed by the poor quality of St. Anger and the ridiculous portrayal of their "musical journey" in Some Kind of Monster.

wasted Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Whoa don't hold back on Metalicker. Hetfield to me isnt as badass as he thinks we think he is. And Lars well god bless him. They are a fine example of doing it for the fans. I dont know whats best to just stop after you hit the jack pot or just to keep on going against everyones advice. They make me laff which I know isn't the goal. I like Sandman and Ain't My Bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
