    The 1980s gave us some of the absolute best music ever recorded; they just didn't play it on MTV or the popular radio stations.

    I think I like zero bands from the 90s, and if I do, they are admittedly derivative dreck (see Pearl Jam).
    you're in the fanclub of a band you consider derivative drek?
    I know, right?

    I have an album title for you!

    I could've been wrong for voting CCR, but the Ramones just sounds like one continuous song to me.

    I love that movie. But agree with offshegoes.

    I love that movie. But agree with offshegoes.
    How in the fuck does "Howling at the Moon (Sha-La-La)" or "Bonzo Goes to Bitburg" sound anything like "Blitzkrieg Bop" or "Rockaway Beach?"

    Wait just a fucking minute here.  Are you telling me that Bon Scott AC/DC sounds like that shit bag Brian Johnson AC/DC?  You motherfucker...

    BTW, I think Bon Scott was the coolest.  Johnson sucked.

    7 records between 80-90.  Brian Johnson is awesome.  Those Bon Scott records were badass, as well.

    Brian Johnson's singing sounds like he's perpetually constipated. not my thing.

    While this comment on Brian is the correct take, your vote tells me that you must be gunning for tempo’s No. 1 spot. 

    More importantly, your brain has been fucked enough, sir!

    And 5 people (so far) looked at all those bands and voted R.E.M.?!?! 10 voted the Ramones!?!?!

    And the Heads are out!?!

    What in the good goddamn is happening??

    Where’s @lolobugg   ??

    Back in Black has some decent songs,  but Johnson sucks. I would never argue with  lyrical poetry like..

    "Let me put my love into you babe,  let me cut your cake with my knife."  

    Dylan is a hack compared to that...
