Like which ones? Diamond dogs is 'bad', but the rest are fine

This was, from what I can tell, a parody off bowie.

ACDC's back in black is horrible. So ostentatious and conceited. What a horrible band in general.


you deserve to be drowned in Acid! ACDC "horrible band"???

The difference is David Bowie is actually good looking whereas Edgar Winter is... well, let's just say plain unappealing.

Personally, I think their best songs are either Atmosphere or Disorder. I like Ceremony quite a bit, but there's no decent studio version, which is a shame. New Order's version of it is stellar though.

Trust me, when you hear them at the perfect moment, you'll understand. It's hard to come by, but when it happens, it's absolutely haunting. There's a time and a place for Joy Division.

Don't get me wrong, I quite like them. But some Joy Division fans act like they are the greatest band ever, which they plainly aren't.

They're not even the best band from Manchester - the Smiths take that position, IMO.

I have an irrational hatred for the Beatles and a more focused hatred for John Lennon in particular.

One of the worst album covers of all time is the (NSFW) "Two Virgins" cover.

I was never a huge fan of John Lennon either, but not liking the Beatles? Really?!
As for Metallica, one time huge fan, but after they came out with 'Black Album Sandwich' I lost all interest, turned left at Slayer and ended up at the intersection of Hawkwind and the Doors.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

I think Ken just saw Joyce, then read "Let Me Touch Him" and there you go: odd and erotic.
