You say Led Zepplin- I say Death Grips
You say AC/DC- I say Neutral Milk Hotel
You say Guns and Roses- I say Radiohead
You say Van Halen- I say Slint
You say metallica- I say My Bloody Valentine
You say The Beatles- I SCREAM The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.
You say Oasis- I punch you in the face
70% of teenagers and young adults have turned to hip-hop and rap, if you are apart of the 30% that still listen to real music, copy and paste this message to another 5 videos.
