Interestingly,
I find some of the supposedly uh, "heavy", "metal"
slut bands and songs being prostituted about on this board are about as hilarious as well.

"slut bands and songs"? I don't know what those are.

"prostituted about on this board"...you're saying somebody here is paying good money to...I don't even know what you're saying.

Ahh!, these are the masters of slut, lol.

I don't know if you are deliberately trying to confused people or what, but no one here is promoting Metallica these days. No one here is promoting the other "sluts" such as Queensryche, Scorpions, Def Leppard, or even Judas Priest. So why are you saying that we are talking about "slut" bands?

Hey Jake don't be so harsh, JP last albums are bad, and Scorpions has lost a lot of the great 70's feeling, but call them "sluts" like Metallica is a little off the decency [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

And as for Lyn Skyn, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, the only band that bores me more is Van Halen [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Wyvern, I was using his terms and trying to think of bands that might fit into his slut category.

I know pal, I was teasing you [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img]

Definitively without Bruhahha, this one is injecting some gas into the board boiler. I rather pass without this types of attitudes, but a little blood shaking... [img]http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de/rough/flaming.gif[/img]

Skynyrd has some awesome songs, but that doesn't appear to be one of them.

Lynyrd Skynyrd is beyond awful. I honestly can't stand one song I've ever heard by them.

Oh really?

Lynyrd Skynyrd's numerous gold, platinum and hit singles is a testament to their success and impact, a whole lot more than what many other mediocre bands, including your sorry ass can achieve in many, many lifetimes.

So can I assume, from your "sales = talent" point of view, that you are a HUGE fan of Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Journey and Madonna? After all, "their numerous gold, platinum and hit singles are testaments to their success and impact". Your "logic" is flawed at best, and stupid at worst.

If my opinion of your beloved Skynyrd has offended you, oh I'm sorry...but they still suck. Awful. Bad. and Horrible.

This is getting pretty amusing. Skynerd isn't exactly a "metal" or even "hard rock" band - more of a classic southern rock - and that's what I'd call a "Love/hate" genre - i.e. the people that are into it are REALLY into it, and the people who are not are really NOT into it.

As far as the sales thing goes, I love GOLDEN EARRING and the Dutch seem to agree (they are treated lke the ROLLING STONES over there, with greatest hits albums advertised on prime time TV) but they can't sell 3 copies over in the USA), ditto loveable bozos KROKUS whose last cd went to NUMBER 1! in the Swiss charts (NOT the metal charts, the regular charts, meaning KROKUS outsold Britney, Madonna, Mariah, LIMP BISQUICK etc..), so it's all relative.

Alright, I'm standing up for Skynard (but not this new guy, I've read his other posts and he's annoying). Completely kick-ass band. If you think otherwise you're wrong [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Seriously though, probably 95% of all the CDs I own are hard rock or metal, and I'd rate Skynard above 95% of those (I don't toss in Skynard with "hard rock," because Southern Rock is a distinct and hallowed genre, IMO). The music itself was good, and they accomplished something that only a handful of bands have ever done in the history of recorded music, and that is do such a good job of capturing the "feel" and emotion of a region of the world. I guess it might be hard for Yankees to understand ( [img]images/smiles/icon_razz.gif[/img] ), but it's indeed true.
