what was metallica's last hit?
St. Anger in 2002....

what was more succesful. St. Anger or Jaded.

I don't know, it really doesn't matter. but I have heard jaded more, but I never really heard of st. anger on the radio that much.

that was before I heard of metallica, I probably never recognized them.

good job. aerosmith sucks.

that is what you think because you never heard of them and that is why you say they are. you have to know their history to say that they are, but you don't know so you say they aren't any good because you don't have anything else to say.

you just told me there history, and who HASNT heard aerosmith.

.... you are officially dumb.

This thread is just horrible doh

Led Zeppelin are easily the best out of that list.

I think you should have done two seperate threads...

anyway, I voted for Led Zepplin.

Bardcok--- was that for me or him?

Aerosmith had one really good CD (Toys In THe Attic) before they became parodies of themselves.

it would have to come down to areosmith and led zeppelin. zeppelin had one smash hit "stairway to heaven" which was in the seventies. that song was hard to beat during its time. none of areosmith's songs was as good as that. led zeppelin was a Little older band and they started in the mid sixties. they band broke up in the early eighties after their lead singer died of alcohol poisoning in a drinking binge. when he died so did led zeppelin. This fate happened to another band that wasn't considered a rock group. lynard skynard was a popular band in the seventies until in 1977 a plane crash in a woods changed everything. Ronnie van was the lead singer and song writer for the group, he died and so did others and after that lynard skynard was never heard of again. led zeppelin was a hot group in the seventies while aerosmith was descent. but when zeppelin broke up, areosmith took over and the eighties was the decade for areosmith.

cking, please come back when you know what you are talking about.

led zeppelin was a Little older band and they started in the mid sixties. they band broke up in the early eighties after their lead singer died of alcohol poisoning in a drinking binge.

nope, he's still alive. Bonham, however, is dead.

zeppelin had one smash hit "stairway to heaven" which was in the seventies. that song was hard to beat during its time.

1) Zeppelin was the most popular band of the 70s - and not just because of Stairway to HEaven
2) Stairway to Heaven isn't that good a song. Black Sabbath, and actually Zeppelin themselves, had a lot of better songs.
This fate happened to another band that wasn't considered a rock group. lynard skynard was a popular band in the seventies until in 1977 a plane crash in a woods changed everything.

Lynyrd Skynyrd is considered a rock band. They are the most popular Southern Rock band ever. Aerosmith disappeared in the 80s until "Walk This Way". So the 80s weren't exactly 'the decade for areosmith'. btw, it's aerosmith.

Where are the Eagles?

just stop. your only embarrassing yourself and you are COMPLETELY wrong on 99% of the things you speak of that are "facts". so just hush and go back to your corner.

wrong, lynard synard was not completely a rock band but country in some categories. yes, they were the most successful southern rock band in history, but they wouldn't make in the eighties because they would have to change the style of their music in order to keep up with non southern rock bands. they never did in the 70's because they had no need to because they were very new and nobody every heard of them before, but int the eighties everyone would be sick of their music because they would never upgrade it to sound eighties. never would never do that because it wouldn't be southern rock anymore, they could but it would never work and they would never be that successful. stairway to heaven was a major hit back then even if were don't agree on that, but truly it was.aerosmith changed also and it proved successful and it not they would have died away. wrong, areosmith had more hits in the eighties than any other decade. aerosmith ha been through the sixties, seventies, eighties, nineties, and up today. led zeppelin has been through the sixties and the seventies. I wouldn't say that zeppelin and black sabbath had more hits. that is based on your opinion if you think have more hits. on my radio station plays aerosmith all the time and less zeppelin, strange? wouldn't zeppelin be played more because they had better songs based on your facts? aerosmith simply had more hits because they simply changed their music when society changed over time, some bands couldn't do that because they only knew their music and nothing else. aerosmith did but not without a cost. they had success in the nineties but still not like the eighties, the nine lives album in 1997 still sounded like it was recorded in the eighties. despite it did have hits like "pink." bands simply had to changed when society changes because people would be sick of listening to music that sounded like seventies when it is in the eighties. I have no never heard of zeppelin in the eighties, what happened to them then? shouldn't they be the best in the eighties? I guess not. if it came down to an overall all poll of the people in this country who live through the seventies and the eighties then it would go to aerosmith, only because they were heard of the most and not zeppelin despite they were a hot band in the seventies but disappeared in the eighties.

Where did you get this shit? One Smash Hit? Wrong. The Lead singer dying of Alcohal Poisoning? Wrong.
