i hate the doors

[cthulufhtagn]

right up there with the beatles, rolling stones, U2, sex pistols and nirvana as one of the most overrated bands of all time.

cheesy lounge keys.
pretentious macho posturing.
general lack of rocking.

the doors suck.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

agreed

If Morrison wouldn't have died, nobody would've cared about them.

this man speaks the truth

fuck rock stars, especially dead ones

 

[David Gold]

The Amorphis cover of "Light My Fire" is cool. That is all.

 

[Eminor]

The Doors are one of the few classic rock bands I enjoy. Incredible band, and every album except The Soft Parade is fantastic.

 

[unknown]

they have a few songs I enjoy, but aside from that they're pretty useless

 

[Reign in Acai]

I have no problem with hearing them on the radio, though I wouldn't pay a single cent for their albums.

 

[Climb Thar Hill]

Everyone (sans Eminor) IS GAY-FUCKING-TARDED

The Beatles overrated? LMAO I'm not the biggest fan in the world but I sure know an ignorant statement when I see one. A lot of their early-mid era stuff is brilliant, nevermind ingenuis. Their use of melody is still unmatched to this day, for the most part...and just generally EXCELLENT songwriting.

Also, The Doors are fucking awesome and had more talent than the majority of shit nowadays...ESPECIALLY mainstream LOL.

The Rolling Stones I could care less about but I dont negate the fact that they were original for their time, definitely in the beginning, and were very influential. I only really like Paint It Black ( ) and Wild Horses.

U2 is the most overrated band in history imho.

Sex Pistols were fucking rad and Johnny Rotten would spit in your fucking face for saying otherwise. C'mon now, one of the pioneers of the punk movement.

Nirvana, well...I dunno....I liked them in the early 90's, dont really car that much for them nowadays and yes, they are overrated imo.

I seriously would rather listen to AKON and Fitty.

 

[IOfTheStorm]

I like The Doors a lot, but yes they are overrated, thinking that there are tons of better 60s bands.
Sex Pistols = absolutely overrated.
Rolling Stones = not that much.

 

[Mormagil]

ah man, fuck you matt

 

[grazim]

The Doors are great. Also, @ Eminor: Soft Parade is a pretty sweet album in my book.

 

[Eminor]

Yeah, it is, it's just easily the least of their work, in my opinion.

 

[Demilich]

This thread really sucks.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

shit thread

 

[Crimson Velvet]

Nirvana = someone else's poo

the beatles: greatest rock band ever? possibly. most overrated? certainly. i don't deny their brilliance, but the second coming they ain't. there's such a haze of myth and nostalgia surrounding them theres no room for objectivity. the way people talk about them you'd think nobody had ever picked up a guitar before they came around.


as for the sex pistols, i'd kick johnny rotten in the crotch. everyone gives them credit for "inventing" punk rock, as though one band could invent punk rock. fuck that, they blow and nearly all their contemporaries and followers mop the floor with them...the clash, the ramones, the stooges, bad brains, black flag, etc etc. no contest.


to clarify, i'm not implying that overrated=bad (necessarily). glad you agree with me on U2 though, every time i hear bono wail "WITH OR WITHOUT YOUUUUU" i want to rape his family.

That's a big oxymoron you know. The greatest rock band ever can't be overrated.
I think they are ABSOLUTELY overrated, other 60s bands wrote much better music. But i can't deny their importance.
