She does seem like the one artist who came out in the midst of all the new female R&B artists who actually had talent for writing and performing. Her second album was really good, too. I just hope she doesn't get swayed.

Audioslave, Velvet Revolver, White Stripes and RHCP have been some of the lone bright spots in music so far this decade.
Im with you on The White Stripes,but Velvet Revolver aint up to much apart from a good first single and RHCP have been making the same album since 93.

No
I'm not denying they have a trademark style, but considering that's not what they do, you'd be wrong.
The Chilis have been doing "the same thing" for 13 years and are still quite clearly a better band than all the generic metal bands out. Thine Eyes Bleed, All That Remains, Still Remains, It Dies Today, As I Lay Dying, Every Time I Die etc etc. All the same band, I think.

All That Remains has a pretty distinct sounds, in my opinion, and shouldn't be lumped in that group with all the other "post-hardcore" bands. I don't know of any more versatile vocalist than Phil LaBonte, either. All the old Shadows Fall albums, he was a straight up yeller. The past two ATR albums, which I own, he's got insane range, and tosses out 4 different styles..some tracks featuring all of them. It's kind of hard to be unique, and a metal band, these days.

Yes, everyone is just rehashing old styles that have already proven to work, no one with talent takes risks.... again, speaking mainstreamwise.
By the way, Alpha.... absolutely LOVE the Fight Club sig!!!

I have a different measuring stick with regards to what's considered versatile given that I listen to Mike Patton, so maybe that's why he doesn't impress me.

Well thats my opinion of RHCP.......its what i hear,others do others dont.
I dont think theyve progressed at all.A 13 yr old track couldve sat happilly alongside stuff on their last cd easily.
I have to bow out of this convo as i aint heard ANY of those other bands mentioned....ive lost step with metal and theres that many bands coming up in that genre(and its offshoots) that even the most music savvy person finds it hard to keep up with em all.
