Great band yes, but as for greatest of the last 20 years you need more than 2 albums to qualify. 


I kinda agree but most of the other picks have only one good album, shit some only even have one good song!!!



The bands I think were good bands but nowhere near the "best band of the last 20 years" that I think are getting WAYYYYYYY too much hype are :


Rage against the machine (ya good band but every song sound the same, if not very similar and ok youve got a pocket full of shells we get it wow)

Korn (please dude just please, just cuz u got all into it doesnt mean that anyone outside of the heshen world liked it)

TOOL - once again same as corn, why cant u not be sober??? noone sober could like the music thats why

Some said ROB ZOMBIE - OMG ROFL ROFLCOPTER DUDE!!!! best band of the last 20 years rob zombie gimme a fukn break

MArilyn Manson someone said also - talk about a freak loser, this guy is only the best at loooking like the biggest freak ever, bravo dude u got breast implants youre fukn awesome

Nine Inch Nails - NIN = these guys had quite a following and could make a descent claim but these guys were kinda you either were completely a NIN freak or not at all so no go

Just curious..........who do you listen to? 

Seeing as you're a hick who races drag cars........I'm guessing a lot of country music and whatnot?  Banjo tunes?  The bad that plays the "Dukes of Hazard" theme?  Just curious

  Have you listened to their last few albums?  Everything since "One Hot Minute" has been complete crap....

That whole Californication album is SUCH CRAP......

The lyrics to that "californiaction" song are just laughable.........."Born in Mississippie.........mother was a hippy".......lol so awful


Agree completely, their lyrics are laughable... they have a very good 'groove' to their music, but if you ever try to break down the lyrics and see what they are talking about it's not going to mean anything unless you're on a combination of psychadelics.

Nobody in the states has ever heard of them, unless they are big hockey fans and love Canada.

Agreed... and isn't that what makes music "listenable ?"

I, for one, don't want to listen to some 22 year old's drug induced diatribe on how to solve the world's problems.

Just make it sound good. Pleasing to the ears. That's ultimately what good music is all about.

If you want political, psychological, and social commentary... read a book, watch the news, or go experience life yourself.
