REM
Talking Heads
U2
The Replacements
The Cars
Iron Maiden
Judas Priest
Van Halen
The Cult
Great White or Guns n Roses
You also ripped me for Cinderella... Just wait till I bring up Duran Duran or Billy idol.
Great White was your favorite 80's hair band? I was into them, but hard to put them ahead of Def Leppard, Motley Crue, whitesnake and others, IMO
Good call on The Cult. Underrated/kickass band.
I was a fan of Motley Crue but every album got worse IMO. They went from good rocking metal to bubble gum pop... I did go to the theatre of pain concert, loudness opened, their guitar player was awesome!
I agree. They had a decent come back with Wildside, but after that it was over.
(how could they even come close to too fast for love or shout @ the devil)
U2 and Duran Duran were the same. They had awesome early albums, but sold out to pop shortly after.
For anyone who doesn't care for U2 should listen to their first 3 albums.
Boy, October and War contain some really heavy songs with incredible lyrics.
After "War" they went fuckin total mu-tard. (musically retarded)
I'll probably gets some flak for this... but I also like Tesla, Ratt, Dokken, Cinderella and Whitesnake.
Some of R.E.M's shit annoys me and sounds like college chick music. Then they have some really good shit like orange crush, blame, took your name and the one I love. I can listen to those on any occasion.
Ratt, Dokken and Whitesnake are acceptable, Tesla was ok for a few minutes but Cinderella? Ewww.
I seen Ratt in concert back in 86 I think when they opened for Iron Maiden, Accept also played that day, front row outside concert, keg in the van, was a great time! I think I seen Dokken and Tesla but I don't remember who with...
The one REM song I have always liked was Everybody Hurts, i've dealt with alot of death in my life and it's just always a song i've liked.
Joshua Tree amazing album, I dont think i've ever owned another U2 album...
