Foo Fighters suck, change my mind. (1 Viewer)

Nirvana is far and away the most overrated band of all time. Foo Fighters are actually better than Nirvana all things considered. They were the ultimate grunge band, a genre that has proven itself to be in retrospect largely inconsequential culturally, socially, even musically. If anything it laid the groundwork for the 2000's butt rock. Just an awful subgenre started by a subpar band. Cue the Gen X fury.

You are free to speak your mind. I can't actually relate to what you are saying, but hope you feel better now.
 
My all time favorite band but just my opinion. Dave is a great song writer and very skilled with musical instruments. I volunteered last year to create the senior power point slides, as my son was a graduating senior to showcase the genius of some of their songs. I grabbed acoustic versions of My Hero and Times Like These edited them down to the collage of photos, starting with My Hero as a youth to Times Like These as a Teenager. There were tears everywhere and I knew I had to lighten the mood at the end, so I mixed in a little DMX Stop, Drop….on his senior photos ending it with the iconic Kanye West “Chic-Fil-A” to dry the eyes for a laugh.

Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl: ‘We think we suck’



If won't believe Dave, not sure how else I can convince you.
 
This song is better than anything the Foo Fighters put out, well it's definitely possible.

Yeah but your perception of Foo Fighters is clouded with irrelevant associations and betrayal - it can't be on merit with that kind of bias. But I suppose everyone's view of music carries those tainted viewpoints . . . which is why these kinds of discussions about music are pointless.

Ha! He is just humble.

If you say, so. Let's just say, I'm surprised when people actually say, they like the Foo Fighters. I remember watching MTV or something, and Tony Hawk (skateboarder) said, he liked the band. Almost fell out of my chair.

Seems to me at least.

Even if Dave wasn't in Foo Fighters, they would still suck, it's just that it wouldn't be worth starting a thread on why they suck though. Which leads me to believe it's not as irrelevant, as you would of hoped. Nice try though.

It just depends, if you like discussing music, or not. Sure people have different tastes, but it's not worth getting all bent out of shape like a Foo Fighters song.

What do you think about Kurt Cobain?

You think "this band is sheetty and everything they do is sheet and I can't understand why anyone would like them" is discussing music? lol

That's just trolling - it's not trying to have a real discussion, it's just stating viewpoint. It's like the conservations 15 year-olds have. It's pointless.
