    Nikki Sixx wrote 3, maybe 4 great songs, Vince Neil can't (and could never) sing, Tommy Lee sure can't either (decent piano player, tho), and I have nothing bad to say about Mick Mars, or any of the other Crue-verse musicians.
    That being said:
    Poison > Crue
    Extreme > Crue
    Kick Axe > Crue
    Mr. Big > Crue
    L.A. Guns > Crue
    Quiet Riot > Crue
    David Lee Roth > Crue
    Enuff Znuff > Crue
    early (and later) Pantera > Crue

    Not gonna compare Pearl Jam to Motley Crue. That'd be like comparing a ribeye steak to McDonalds. You compare McDonalds to Wendy's, Burger King, and White Castle ;)
    Opinions are like assholes, we all have one.

    None of those listed are better, but I'm guessing you know that and were looking for a reply

    Agreed,  they're all equally terrible. 
    No mention of sexism here, just a joke at your preference, musically.

    I don't think PJ is high art.  I do think Motley Crue and plenty of the other hair bands were sexist and degrading to women.  I don't have a problem with anyone calling it out.  I think it should be called out.  They were dirt bags.  PJ wasn't perfect, but they weren't dirt balls.  

    right no junkies or killers in pj
    Sarcastic?

    OK.  Do you say the same about other bands who did the same thing?
    (Or so the same thing, still?)

    I'd like to think so.  80s bands in particular built their whole persona around misogyny. While bands like the Stones have gone too far on occasion (Stray Cat Blues as an example), it didn't feel like their raison d'etre.

    I don't criticize the junkies as much.  That's a personal issue and demon.  I'd have to eliminate my whole jazz collection.

  • Just want to add to the discourse that if you want those Dirty Frank-esque nasty riffs and that funky beat and lyrics that are not like salad --

    -- then Vince Neil away from Mötley Crüe is something not to be missed:

    If PJ is not "high art", Motley Crue music is a finger painting done by a Golden Retriever.

    Generic riffs, dumb superficial songwriting for mouth breathers, and the same tired personalities that went stale 35 years ago.

    Thanks for proving my point.

    Sarcastic?

    fact with sarcasm. Sixx full blown junkie. coke and heroin, Lee had his own issues. Vince is a drunk who killed a guy while drunk.

    Mike gets honorable mention though.

    Its good that Vince can mostly grunt the sounds to approximate singing the lyrics though.
