Bands Vs Thread

Deathblow
Ok, this idea came from the wonderful Mister Rob, who obviously stole it from the Movie Stars forum wink

Anyway, from now on any kind of thread or poll opened pitting two or more bands against each other will be closed straight away. If you want to get others opinions on who's better than who, do it here.

i.e.

Radiohead or Good Charlotte?

Damn I'm a good mod.

Alpha Centauri
Is Radiohead or Good Charlotte the first one?

Or just some random example?

(Radiohead).

-AC

Afro Cheese
I saw a list of the hundred "great albums of all times" and Radiohead's OK Computer got number 1. Overall it was a weak list but I thought it was cool that Radiohead got number 1 cause usually they just automatically give it to an older album or band.

http://entertainment.sympatico.msn.ca/celebs/articles/1129792.armx

Darth Revan
That is cool. Myself I wouldn't consider it the greatest album of all time, but still.

In any case...

Chili Peppers vs Bad Religion

Alpha Centauri
I wouldn't either. I would consider it one of, easily.

Yeah, RHCP.

-AC

Afro Cheese
RHCP

Me either, but I am more happy with that as a choice than I would be for most of the albums those magazine guys usually choose. I dislike other parts of their list though, like their number 2 choice.

De La Soul vs Tribe Called Quest

Dark Mousy
De La Soul all the way.

Linking Park vs Green Day.

PINBALL
I would say Green Day crushes Linkin Park

SnakeEyes
Yeah me too...

The Ramones versus The Clash (I say the Ramones...)

Darth Revan
The Clash. Just because I've never understood what made the Ramones so "great."

Iron Maiden vs Black Sabbath

Afro Cheese
Maiden.

Pantera vs Slayer

SnakeEyes
Slayer...

AFI vs Less Than Jake

PINBALL
Less than Jake
Sum 41 or Blink 182

Darth Revan
Blink-182

The Roots vs Blackalicious

PINBALL
I dont know much on eather of those bands

Afro Cheese
It's hip hop, pinball.

Hard choice but I'm going to have to give it to The Roots.

NoFX vs Bad Religion

SnakeEyes
I am inclined to say NoFX...

LanİeWindu™
Metallica vs. AC (lightning bolt big grin) DC?

loserib
acdc

LanİeWindu™
Mudvayne vs Gwar?

Alpha Centauri
Mudvayne.

The White Stripes or Yeah Yeah Yeahs? (Mine is TWS)

-AC

Zahit
The White Stripes. (YYYeah's are good too though)


MINISTRY vs SKINNY PUPPY?

Deathblow
Skinny Puppy, undoubtedly.

Here's one I've been struggling to decide;

Public Enemy or Rage Against The Machine?

Lana
I have to go with RATM.

Tool or NIN?

(should be interesting...)

Deathblow
Tool. Almost nobody beats Tool.

Boysetsfire or From Autumn To Ashes?

R0B
I dont really know who Autumn To Ashes are that much. Ive heard of them but I dont know them. And I have only heard like 1 song from boysetsfire so I guess Ill go with them. The Ramones or Van Halen? ( sorry if Halen isnt spelled correctly )

Alpha Centauri
NIN are nothing to Tool, they're/he's just really good.

Not too sure on those two. Sorta indifferent.

-AC

Lana
I only asked 'Tool or NIN' because the other day Tpt and I were discussing whether Maynard or Trent were better/more talented.

Dunno about those 2, I've never really heard anything by either.

Tptmanno1
Yup, debate of the century I say...

Deathblow
Nah. Maynard's the better vocalist/lyricist, and Trent's the better/more versatile musician.

Alpha Centauri
Tool as a collective come up with better music than almost any band ever. Including NIN.

There aren't many better. Maynard can play guitar and piano but he just doesn't. So I'd say Trent is the better player.

Lana, you have heard Trent's solo stuff. NIN is his solo stuff. He makes the albums alone with the exception of the additional guitarist/drummer.

-AC

Darth Revan
Maynard is a far better vocalist, and a not-so-far better lyricist. Trent is better at everything else.

Oh, and just a little off-topic point here: Maynard has been known to play guitar in Tool and APC concerts on occasion. wink

Kyuss vs Queens of the Stone Age

SnakeEyes
Queens of the Stone Age...

The Cars vs. Cheap Trick

StinkFist462
Cars

Mars Volta or Bright Eyes

SnakeEyes
Mars Volta

The Strokes vs. The Hives

LanİeWindu™
The Strokes

Tenacious D vs. Weird Al

SnakeEyes
Hmmm, thats a toughie... for me I say Tenacious D...

The Used vs. The Killers

TraptUnderIce
The Killers only becuase I've actually heard their songs.

Megadeth or Metallica?

Lana
Metallica, ofc.

A Perfect Circle or Deftones?

Dr. Strangelove
That's a tough one...

A Perfect Circle

Radiohead or Opeth?

SnakeEyes
Radiohead

Darth Revan
Opeth.

BB King vs Eric Clapton

LanİeWindu™
BB King all the way

The Darkness vs. Queen

Alpha Centauri
Queen.

Led Zeppelin Vs The Who?

-AC

LanİeWindu™
Led Zeppelin

Creed (sick) vs. Altar Bridge (sick)

TheKangarooster

Cannibal Corpse Vs Christina Aguilera

HAHAHAHAHAHA smile

Deathblow
Yeah...

Mobb Deep or Wu-Tang Clan?

Alpha Centauri
Wu-Tang Clan.

Keeping the theme....

Canibus or Slug?

Deathblow
Canibus

Another one I could never decide;

Company Flow or Cunninlynguists?

Darth Revan
Cunninlynguists

Libertine
The clash or the sex pistols?

Alpha Centauri
Da Clarsh.

Muse or Feeder?

-AC

TheKangarooster
Muse of cource

TheKangarooster
merzbow or absurdgod ?

Deathblow
I've never heard of absurdgod before, but assuming that they/he/she is in the same vein as Merzbow, I will say neither. I honestly cannot understand how people can listen to that kind of thing.

Smashing Pumpkins or Sonic Youth?

Afro Cheese
Smashing Pumpkins

Prince vs Michael Jackson

NicktheBassist
both terrible and cannot be juddgeed due to equal crappyness.

i can't think of a good match involving Tenacious D.

How about Senses Fail vs The Used

SnakeEyes
The Used...

Armor For Sleep or Brand New?

Moonunit
...or boring old radiohead, nah shut up, they wrote the best album ever, no shut it they did, look stop arguing they did...

Morgoths_Wrath
Lamb of God Vs. Shadows Fall

Deathblow
Shadows Fall, easily.

Dark Tranquility or In Flames

(pre-Soundtrack To Your Escape In Flames, that is)

SnakeEyes
In Flames

Again... Armor for Sleep or Brand New?

Filth
Hmmm...... Brand New, but there not very good.

Cradle of Filth, Dimmu Borgir, Graveworm or Death?

Deathblow
Dimmu Borgir, but they're not very good.

MF Doom or Kool Keith?

Afro Cheese
Personally.. MF Doom. I know Keith is a legend and all but overall I prefer Doom.

Soundgarden vs Incubus

Deathblow
Nah I was thinking Doom too, he has Keith just about beat on every level.

Soundgarden

Fluke or Underworld?

Treehuggerjanie
underworld.def.
hmmm...
murderdolls or frankenstein dragqueens from the planet 13?

StinkFist462
J-lo

Ministry or Mindless Self Indulgence

magic_hate_ball
Ministry

Incubus or Deftones

Darth Revan
I'd say Deftones stick out tongue

Stone Temple Pilots vs Guns n Roses

StinkFist462
STP , easily

Velvet Revolver or Audioslave


side note i cant stand either band

Darth Revan
That's a tough one...

I can't decide, all I can say is that I pretty consistently like VR from what I've heard, while Audioslave has a couple great songs and a number of mediocre or bad songs. Cochise has one of my favorite guitar riffs ever... Mostly because it sounds like a Rage song yes

Porcupine Tree vs Dredg

StinkFist462
PT

The Killers or The Bravery

Alpha Centauri
Audioslave and bad songs don't belong in the same sentance.

As for the above choice...hmmm....The Killers. Just because I want to kill them less.
