The Cranberries are a Top50 band in History

[Crannadict]

Hello from Spain, I saw this thread randomly and I needed to response all people that insulted Dolores, The Cranberries and the fans who love The Cranberries:

Crap/Not Crap: The Cranberries

They've been on heavy rotation in my house the last couple of days after binge watching Derry Girls. To the point of getting a bit choked up about Dolores's death. Never cared for them at the time though. Had the 7" of Dreams soon forgot about them as heavier, faster, harder, cooler stuff came...

They are not just a single alt-rock band from the 90s, they changed the music scene when grunge were huge in America. The Cranberries always did all they want, and never lost their identity.

At my 30s, I can say that if The Cranberries hadn't existed my life would not be complete. Because Dolores are in my mind ane in my heart since I was just 4 years old.

Saludos desde España

I'm interested to know how they changed the music scene? Whatever you think of their music, it wasn't particularly ground breaking.

I'm sure I'm not being rude but it's just your attitude. It's tearing me apart. It's ruining every day.

Eh? It's literally the thread where the claim was made

I only remember zombie. Which was massively overplayed. For a while I thought it was Sinead O’Connor.

The Cranberries were not innovative but Slowdive, as some critics mention, were it? Souvlaki came out in June 1992 and EEIDISWCW in March 1992, with which the first great dreampop album belongs to The Cranberries.
In addition, folk-rock had been cornered in the music scene for 10 years, since the decline in popularity of Jethro Tull in the 80s, and The Cranberries reinterpreted the folk-rock sound by adding a new instrument:
THE VOICE OF DOLORES O'RIORDAN

This is False:

 

[Steel Icarus]

Lol

Asking for it here but I don't think The Cranberries were the Limerick Jethro Tull.

 

[Favelado]

Sì

Jealous. Guiri in Madrid here.

Funny that, I don't speak espaniol

The Cranberries are bigger than Jethro Tull, with a much smaller discography. I love Jethro Tull and I think Aqualung is a rock Top 100 álbum, but despising The Cranberries is absurd.
EEIDISWCW, NNTA, TTFD and BTH, 4 albums released in the 90s that today have sold 40 million copies in total, which feature at least 20 seminal songs of alternative music from the 90s. I don't understand the antipathy for The Cranberries, I guess it must be because Dolores was pro-life

I think some people just like different things is all

What about WUASTC, the worst Limerick album title of all time. Giveamanakick's Is It Ok To Be Loud Jesus being the greatest.

They were never good with album names, they were good at making music.

But people that don't like The Cranberries must respect people that love The Cranberries, if a person is respectful about his/her dislike of The Cranberries, it's nice!

 

[killer b]

I don't understand - who's disrespecting you?

Okay. Looks legit then!

When they insult The Cranberries they are insulting the fans, and for me as a child who grew up in the 90's this band is part of me. In addition, I have great appreciation for Dolores as a person, because her music and her charisma helped me in the grieving process.
