Keep on topic please…I don't think any on that list could be considered 'Gods' by any stretch of the imagination.

What board have you been reading? If I hear one more person ejaculate about Daft Punk and their pyramid ("ooooooh, that stage prop is totally blowing my mind"), I'm going to drop dead, resurrect, and drop dead again. And the rest are frequently highly praised, so eat a dick.

Or did you want a thread where everyone says "Call me a heretic, but I just don't like Radiohead, Pearl Jam or Smashing Pumpkins." Boy that'd be interesting.

Daft Punk makes the best dance music of anyone on the planet. fuck their stupid stage setup. doesnt mean a thing. if you want to dance, you cant find anything better. end of story.

From what I've heard Jandek would fall in this catagory, and he's not who i'm thinking off.

I'm either terribly out of touch or my brain has taken off for the weekend already. What band name did you give the Mad magazine treatment to here?

Nirvana and The Grateful Dead, two bands that never did it for me and I can't quite grasp their popularity.

I happen to think The Smiths are God status but understand I'm in the minority. Just because there are small number of fans are in awe of them does not make them Gods in the mainstream…just say'n

This topic would probably be a lot more fun if it were, say, a People magazine forum and you listed someone like Josh Groban. Go on, tell 'em he's not an opera singer.

Grateful Dead make the noise that real bands make when tuning up.
I think their concerts are just events for stoners of all ages to hang out at….I don't think it actually has anything much to do with the band. Not unlike the Parrot heads and Jimmy Buffet. It's the event, not the concert that they go for.

Nirvana are/were, well, just shyte, plain and simple. Cobain became the poster boy for the Seattle grunge movement and that's how they got their following. He will end up being a minime Che Guevara with teenage boys wearing t-shirts with his face on because it's cool to do so, even though they don't have a clue who he was.

Interesting. I would mos def put the Smiths into God territory, both because of my own personal opinion that they are giants among men and because I figured that was the conventional wisdom.

the smiths - how could i forget them? thanks for the reminder. they more than suck, they supersize suck, they suck more than an uncle's day at a whorehouse.

I bet they don't suck more than you. ;)

You like village people, Barbara Streisand and show tunes, we like The Smiths, each to their own.
