Best band of all time poll

I still never understood what The Rolling Stones had on The Beatles, The Who and Pink Floyd other than maybe commercial appeal.

The thing is, everyone trys to label them as outsiders, as rebels and hipsters. Maybe when it come to their image, but their music was just Rock N Roll and nothing beyond that, and all and all as everyone from AC/DC to GnR know, Rock N Roll is what sells.

Overall IMO, The Stones are incredibly overrated, argubly the most overrated band of all time, and of all the big banRAB that came from the London scene and the British invasion, they were the least original. People give them credit for creating hard rock, but their music wasn't really that different from traditional Chicago blues and R&B. The Who, The YardbirRAB, Cream, Hendrix, Zeppelin and Sabbath did a far better job at channeling those influences into a unique sound.

The Stones did popularise the idea of blues rock, but they were not that innovative, their legacy is mostly about image.
 
Precisely why I dispise them.




If you don't want to make money, why join a label in the first place?



Calling everything from Please Please Me to Help! "horrible proto pop" is just ridiculously wrong.



Ok. First off, anyone who says "quits mattering" should not criticise my grammar.

And regardless of your intentions, if you sell your art for money. You are selling out, theres absolutely no going around it.



Even as someone who dispises the status of The Rolling Stones with an incredible passion. I can still accept that they are better than Judas Priest. At least in my opinion.



A guitar is whatever the hell you want it to be.



Its not just that you added the word "****". Its the picture itself, I now associate you with the image of President Bush and that just pisses me off.
 
But we aren't talking about failed hookers now are we. Plus that analogy is irrelevant to me. I haven't even hugged a girl that isn't part of my family.
 
MM is a favorite among those who can't get into banRAB who use more than the exact same format for every song.

They're more repetitive than The Rolling Stones, AC/DC and The Ramones corabined.
