I’ll take Pearl Jam over Nirvana, but it’s very close. Both put out great albums early on. The Rolling Stones vs The Who? Easily The Who, not even close. Also The Stones absolutely suck, I despise them. I wanted to like them, I just don’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it’s close, but I didn’t know what the consensus would be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 (edited) Radiohead Nirvana CCR Motley The Stones Guess I'll be the one but I can't stand the Who. Now the Stones are also annoying at times (especially their sex songs) but I'll take Gimme Shelter, Can You Hear Me Knocking, Paint it Black and Rolling Dice over anything the Who ever wrote. Heart vs Fleetwood Mac Edited February 21, 2023 by Shockwave 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I had the privilege to see Ann Wilson recently perform. She's still got it; the show was great. She did a cover of Rooster, and it was fantastic.

Heart vs Fleetwood Mac I agree. The Who's sound does nothing for me. I was never into the Stones much either, but Paint it Black and Satisfaction were always good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd by a mile. I'd put Phish up against a band like The Grateful Dead instead. PF sets the mood. Phish is something to listen to when already in the right mood.

Shockwave Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Screw Phish. I have no idea why they have their own dedicated channel on XM. I've never heard even 1 track from them worth a relisten. Floyd by miles and miles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnChimpo Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Fleetwood Mac - I like both. Smashmouth - I liked both when I was in middle school. Pink Floyd - I don’t understand the appeal of Phish, although I can tell they are good musicians when I briefly stop on their Sirius XM station on my way to something I want to listen to.

biggie. Posted February 22, 2023 Author Share Posted February 22, 2023 Don't forget to provide a matchup after making your pick; it's how to keep the thread rolling. Fugazi vs. Dinosaur Jr. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamq Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 (edited) I really do not like Pink Floyd but have only heard the hits played on the radio. Any suggestions on good deep tracks to listen to?

Fugazi vs. Dinosaur Jr. I like Fugazi, got into them because Flea talks about em quite a bit. Never heard of Dinosaur Jr but I'll give them a listen.. EDIT- Nevermind, on the 4th track now and Dino Jr is definitely better to my ears. These guys kick ***. Good videos to boot. Here's a 90's blast- The Offspring or Sublime Edited February 22, 2023 by adamq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I was the second answer, I'll defer to Biggie and repeat his matchup: Brand New vs. Taking Back Sunday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
