Rock's fifth symphony?
Apologies, you came across as a dumb American. And continue to: your reading comprehension is still terrible. Too much Kerrang! 1. I'm talking about the rave music that came after Britpop, I would have thought that was clear from my asking how it 'came from Britpop'. In order for something to...- DarkWishWall

Rock's fifth symphony?
Well that just about sums up the whole U.S.A.'s argumental attitude. You didn't read a single word I said, indulged in a strand of unfunny self righteous humour and closed your head to anything you couldn't comprehend. Answers one by one: 1. Yes, Slipknot are influenced by Dylan. If you had...- DarkWishWall

top 100 rock songs...disgraceful
I think that was a cracking list. I would have placed 'Summertime Blues' and 'Stand By Me' much higher, but apart from that I thought it made sense. On a kind of unrelated note, here's my top 100 FAVOURITE songs (NOT MY OPINION ON THE 'BEST'): 1.Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond...- DarkWishWall

Rock's fifth symphony?
Even if you had listed a thousand acts that weren't influenced by it, that would be a small proportion of songwriters who have come into existance since its release, and most of that population would have been influenced by it. Anyway, you clearly don't know what you're talking about if you...- DarkWishWall

Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame
I hardly ever say this but the imagery of the phrase is the only way I can do justice to the amount of laughing I've just been doing: LMAO "HEART- Are we sexist? Heart is quite possibly the most influential rock band with the front MAN being a woman ever" This must be the most...- DarkWishWall

Rock's fifth symphony?
What?!! It has influenced popular music in it's entirety since it's release, just has those other albums have. The Who are a hugely influential and important band but I don't think they have one particular song that stands out completely except My Generation, which is extremely considerable for...- DarkWishWall

Rock's fifth symphony?
There's nothing wrong with the list, most of those are great songs. But I was asking what the most influential, important and enormous piece of rock music ever. Hardly superlatives you could attach to any of those songs except House Of The Rising Sun.- DarkWishWall

Rock's fifth symphony?
I was waiting for someone to be pedantic. Of course rock's not going to be forgotten any time soon but neither was classical 200 years ago! Nobody mentioned that classical isn't even dead yet either, but never mind. Also, the phrase 'fifth symphony' was maybe a little more metaphorical than you...- DarkWishWall

Rock's fifth symphony?
I was listening to 'Born To Run' whilst waiting for a bus the other day and the title track came on and I thought 'Wow, this really is rock's fifth symphony'. In case you aren't familiar with the fifth, it isn't necessarily the BEST piece of classical music, but just has the most mythical...- DarkWishWall

Your 10 Favourite Bob Dylan Songs
Yeah, I saw him live last year and spent the whole gig trying to figure out whether he was just having one of his days where he sings strangely on purpose, or whether his voice had actually gone. I decided that the latter happened so he decided to adopt the former as a fail safe policy! I could...- DarkWishWall

Your 10 Favourite Bob Dylan Songs
You're missing the point of Dylan. YES his voice is unattractive, but he isn't using it in the same way most other vocalists do. That's what makes him so interesting - he's a poet who happens to write songs. He's effectively singing poetry, which gives it a whole new dimension. The tone of words...- DarkWishWall

Your 10 Favourite Bob Dylan Songs
What in the blue Hell are you talking about?! Show me someone who says Dylan's overrated and ten seconds later I'll show you someone who's had his ass kicked, by me! 1.Simple Twist Of Fate 2.Tangled Up In Blue 3.Don't Think Twice, It's Alright 4.Pledging My Time 5.Like A Rolling Stone...- DarkWishWall

Kurt Cobain
You know, I had a Nirvana argument like this once, on www.crf2.com (I was Blondeonthetracks - it was I!). I acted like an asshole (Much more of an asshole than I am) and eventually got myself banned. That is why, despite my intense dissaproval of what an absolutely effete and cretinous moron...- DarkWishWall
