5_moves_of_doom Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 95.Spin Doctors-2 Princes 80-The Cure-Pictures of You 67-The Rolling Stones-Sympathy for the Devil 53-Lou Reed-the ENTIRE Metal Machine Music ALBUM 45-Jimi Hendrix-Foxey Lady 26-Faith No More- Epic 16-David Bowie-Hang Onto Yourself 95 -- Damn catchy, fun, and harmless. 80 -- ...What? Legitimately good song. One of the Cure's best. Maybe Guitar World just aren't fans. 67 -- Not a huge Stones fan... but c'mon, that's a great song. 53 -- Nice to fall asleep to. And you know, it's obviously not easily-listenable on its own merits, but Reed definitely showed bravery in releasing it as a big name on a big label. At least cool for historical value. 45 -- Not a great Hendrix song, but it's a pretty cool riff... a little annoying, maybe, but not top-100 material. They're definitely just trying to stir shit up by putting Hendrix on here. 26 -- Fun pop song, catchy as hell. 16 -- GREAT song. What's their problem?
B. Brian Brunzell Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 I can actually understand the beef with "Epic", and I'm the ULTIMATE Faith No More mark. The solo just does nothing for me. It sounds disjointed and sloppy and overdubbed inplaces. Faith No More still owns you,though.
snuffbox Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 Another retarded list. But not as bad as pitchfork's.
spiny norman Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 I would say it's worse than Pitchfork's actually.
snuffbox Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 Again, as with pitchfork...wheres the Nickleback mentions?
Only The Strong Survive Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 You'd have to read exactly WHY the song's are picked. I have the issue, and issues with the playing come from sloppiness, Pro Tools-esque cutting and pasting, out-of-tune notes, or total lack of taste in terms of style or flow. It doesn't refer to the songs themselves, just the leads.
Red Baron Posted October 8, 2004 Author Report Posted October 8, 2004 I'm guessing Poison solo is the concert where C.C. showed off his "skills"
AboveAverage484 Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 43-Venom- At War with Satan Yeah, like they really give a damn.
Corey_Lazarus Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 I'm trying to think of how any of the guitar parts to Living Colour's "Cult of Personality" are bad. I mean, the solo's NUTS and goes with the awkwardness of the main lick/riff.
Guest GreatOne Posted October 8, 2004 Report Posted October 8, 2004 --65-Slayer-Exile Gheyness confirmed here as well. Hell at least pick Warzone for christ sakes! Then again, any pre-metal Pantera is just fine with me.......................
Guest ian. Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 22-Blind Melon-No Rain What did they say about that one?
Giuseppe Zangara Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 Again, as with pitchfork...wheres the Nickleback mentions? That Pitchfork list is five years old. As for this list, citing the Replacements as having bad solos is missing the point entirely.
Paul Stanley Posted October 10, 2004 Report Posted October 10, 2004 Love Gun? That's one of the best solos in rock history!
Paul Stanley Posted October 10, 2004 Report Posted October 10, 2004 And yes..i own the original 2 disc Swallow This..........Live! (Poison fan..yes, i know) and CC's guitar solo is very bad.
The Czech Republic Posted October 10, 2004 Report Posted October 10, 2004 That riff from "Brainstew" is a terrible bastardization of "25 Or 6 To 4." Green Day sucks.
