But I wasn’t talking to ‘music critics’ I was talking to you. And I wasn’t talking about McCartney’s solo output, I was talking about The Beatles.
Bands with a big reputation that are (musically) shite

- Start date
You seem to point to the absolute shite he wrote as a solo artist to back your point. I never said McCartney was a good solo artist.

What would Picard do?
you can't separate out McCartney's ability as a member of the Beatles from his ability as a solo artist - he's literally the same man, i believe.
And i was just pointing out that my opinion is not exactly "out there". Fucks sake. I'm done with this. Fuck off. I have much more important things to do.

ok - i tried to get on with you but you're such a fucking arse i'm putting you back on ignore.
Over discussing music? Jeez. Ok then.

The Doors have been mentioned a few times and I'm not a massive fan but how are they 'musically shite'? So far it's the only act I'm questioning because I really don't get it.
Unless "musically shite" is being used as a euphemism for "I don't like it" - which btw isn't why I added in Nirvana, I actually like Nirvana I'm just bemused by their incredible success

Yeah, I was going to put them up, it’s just a racket isn’t it?

I mean, tbf I do love a lot of stuff that could be fairly described as just a racket, and I think some of their songs are actually great. But I dunno how much of it would stand out in a blind taste test against other hardcore songs of the era.
Definitely for some of it- I still regularly listen to Everything went black, particularly on the drive home, if I've had a hard day at work.

It's also great how some of the HC bands through the years changed their sound away from the aggressive sound to something more tuneful and seemed to do a great job- I always loved the way 7Seconds did that.

Yeah, awesome.
Am not in agreement with the editor's list either. No need to call him a "deaf cunt" though, is there?

That's a little bit facetious from someone who's been banned at least three times.

At least seven.
He had an amazing voice and could write a decent song when he wanted to. The size of their success was unusual (and accentuated by his death, they didn't have a chance to decline) but I reckon they had more to say musically than most grunge bands.

I disagree, but not vehemently. On KC's voice, it was OK but I think lots of rock singers do just as well or better. They don't necessarily have his chsrisma though and I actually think that's what did it. Unashamed cardigan wearing. Baby face vulnerability worn on sleeve. Boys and girls could both fancy him. Catchy choruses for MTV.

That's no fun!
it's okay, I don't think I even agree vehemently. You're probably right about his charisma. I saw them a few times and he was able to captivate a crowd.

What is kind of funny though, is that Pearl Jam did the actual music better, wrote more complex, layered, psychedelic songs etc and enjoyed (still enjoy) success of the same magnitude and yet they don’t and didn't touch me like Nirvana did. I could analyse that for hours (probably have tbh) but whatever drew me personally to Nirvana but not Pearl Jam, it had nothing to do with music.
