@@LordBackuroin my personal opinion i always preferred maiden over Metallica idk why it’s just i always got a picture or story made with a lot of maiden songs so thats why i like them a lot
Rush definitely has a distinct sound but I don’t think all their songs sound the same. There’s a big difference in sound between albums like Hemispheres and Fly By Night for instance
"Green Day should've broken up in 2009" As a major Green Day simp I could not agree more. Everything they made up till 21st Century Breakdown was phenomenal, and 21CB isn't even a bad album It's just the worst of the best I feel. But the trilogy on wards is just so... I don't wanna talk about it. Also the fact that the same Nirvana songs are always played I think really tarnishes their reputation. I still think Nevermind as a whole is an amazing and perfect album but god damn it people there's a whole other side to the album, and Nirvana is more than just Nevermind, Bleach and In Utero are just as good if not better but except for Heart Shaped Box I NEVER hear anything from those albums ever.
I mean, their MTV show was legendary and was purely accoustic, a side almost forgotten about them. I think it's going to change a little because of something in the way, or at least I hope so.
Yeah, you never hear songs like Drain You, On A Plain, Scentless Apprentice, or Milk It on the radio. And that's still true if you count any samples of those songs, really.
@@honeycomblord9384 mmmm I can understand Scentless Apprentice and Milk It since those aren’t “radio friendly” but Drain You and On a Plain??? No excuse
One day, bands like My Chemical Romance, Blink-182, A Day to Remember, The Story So Far, Municipal Waste, Iron Regan, At the Drive-In and Alexisonfire will be considered "Dad rock" by the next generation and I am not okay with that information.
U2 has like 2 and a half good singles, 10 boring singles, the kind that you listen once and go "ah that's interesting" only to change it every other time you hear it come up, and then all their back catalogue seems just as interesting as watching ice melt all day.
Kind of disagree on his take for Nirvana don't think the lyrics are that complexed or good but the mix of the lyrics mixed with the tone of the track can have you feeling a certain way and is just a good vibe would put it in B or A teir personally.
@@animality102 Just like with ELO’s Out of the Blue. They think that just because that particular album has a lot of happy songs that ELO only made happy songs in general. So stupid.
2:16 legit paused the video and looked around my floor for a solid 2 minutes before realizing the sound of the guitar pick dropping was in the video. That pick is gone by the way
I grew up with my dad always playing the Grateful Dead and I never really liked it, but I went to a concert and get it now. It’s just a really cool experience to really let loose
Beatles are one of those bands where you need to listen to the full discography to really understand the hype. They have light acoustic songs on the same album as heavy metal. Most people who actively dislike them have only really heard Hey Jude and She Loves You.
I dislike them because they’re highly overrated. I really hate it when people compare them to ELO, when they sound nothing alike. Really pisses me off. Their sound is very simplistic to me. And I’ll never understand the hype.
@@snsnshhhs663 They sound quite distinct in both style and mixing to me. Just compare The third is the one that makes the least progress of the bunch, but you also have to take into consideration that they were all released within 3 years. If you look at the progression from "Please Please Me" to "Help!" and think about it as a 2.5 year timespan during which they're the forefront of music production it's quite impressive. Just listen to I Saw Her Standing There, It Won't Be Long, Mr Moonlight, (skip the third album), You've Got to Hide Your Love Away and Michelle / Norwegian Wood, I'm Only Sleeping / She Said She Said and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds. Got some great variety there.
@@snsnshhhs663 When you compare Please Please Me to Rubber Soul (Albums that were released less than 3 years apart from each other) they are very different. I mean Norwegian Wood opens up with a Sitar of all instruments. Yeah, a lot of those earlier Albums sound similar at times but once you hit Revolver everything changes. Revolver only came out 3 years after Love Me Do that's pretty darn impressive if you ask me
i've listened to their entire discography and i'd still put them no higher than C-tier. george harrison's "all things must pass" beats everything the beatles ever put out imo.
Should've had Foo Fighters, Megadeth, Allman Brothers and Jimi Hendrix Experience on this list too. Maybe even Journey or fuckin sex pistols Edit: the who.
Honestly I love how different this list can be for different people and how subjective music is. Except for U2 who are objectively the taint of FM radio
I feel like the only dude in this comments that loved U2. lol I get it, Bono is a self-loving prick but their music is so authentic and big. Two of their albums are amazing.
@@zackzallie8735 Honestly I feel like it's because Judy's audience is younger shredders who don't have the patience for music that's more mellow/slower bpm, etc. And imo a lot of people inherit the opinions on U2 from other people, rather than forming it naturally without bias. It's like the Train effect where everyone else says they suck so "I guess they must be right" and you just trust the crowd. And another issue is people who only know the vanilla corporate rock singles and assume all their songs sound like Beautiful Day and WOWY. Which is absolutely not true, since U2 has one of the most diverse discogs of any classic rock band (post-punk, techno, blues, gospel, etc. etc.)
as someone who got into rock n roll through KISS, i agree with them being in c-tier lmao. their best stuff came out when significantly less people cared about them - albums like creatures of the night, lick it up, revenge, etc.
The intro to long time by boston with the organ fucks so hard. I love rock music with organs we need to bring back organ rock music the closest we've gotten is Dream Theater and King Gizzard.
i was coming here to comment this from an objective stance. Listen to Lakeside Park, then listen to The Anarchist, then Something for Nothing. LITERALLY NONE OF THEIR SONGS SOUND THE SAME. like Roll the Bones has Bravado immediately followed by dreamline. so i think his biggest criticism of rush is coming from somebody who hasn't actually listened to rush.
As a Nirvana fan, I’d argue that the talent is not only in the lyrics but also the music itself. You see, there are bands I like more overall (AC/DC, Metallica and Linkin Park are all in my top 5), but when listening to a full album from one of these bands, a lot of the songs often sound the same, as if they were made around the same few chords, just rearranged slightly. But that doesn’t really happen with Nirvana. In Nevermind, the first 5 songs alone are so tonally, lyrically and audibly distinct that you wouldn’t really think any of them came from the same album. *Smells Like Teen Spirit* is a great, high energy opener with a very simple chord progression, *In Bloom* is a more advanced and hard hitting rock song with more complex chords and solos, *Come As You Are* is a lower tuned, darker and grungier song, *Breed* is a super fast paced fun punk rock song and *Lithium* is a slower, quieter and more introspective song with a greater focus on the lyrics with a hard hitting chorus in between. Bottom line is Nirvana is great, not just because their music sounds good but it was made with some genuine creativity, care and attention to details.
Pink Floyd is my favourite band of all-time too. Pink Floyd is a band that always sounds good but there's a switch that must be flipped. Pimk Floyd is so deep that you really have to listen to them for years before you really gain an understanding of them. However, once you "get" Pink Floyd, that switch is flipped and you will forever be seeing the world differently. You'll also fall hopelessly in love with their music, more than any other band you've ever heard. It takes time and it takes brains but once you "get" Pink Floyd, you'll never be able to "un-get" Pink Floyd and their genius will enhance your life with wisdom in ways that you never thought possible.
For what it's worth look into the Dead's live albums, they're actually really tight. Not a "Dead Head", but the sheer musicianship from them is unreal. Agreed though it's either you love it or don't get it.
I’m kind of surprised foo fighters wasn’t on there even though people either listen to one of their songs(everlong), four of their song(everlong, my hero, learn to fly, and best of you), or all of their songs except for most of the sonic highways album and everything after that
Bro listen to The Dead's Live in Europe in 1972...it has a goofy looking trippy cartoon guy with an Ice cream cone on it... I felt the exact same way you do about the dead until I heard that whole album while smokin some dank green...but seriously I respect you a lot man and that's why I felt the need to comment in Hope's you'll give that album a listen to... China cat sunflower into I know you rider and Jack Straw, Black throated wind, and brown Eyed women are some incredible songs from that band and the 72 in Europe recordings of those songs are sheer magic
I have never heard say that all Rush songs sound the same. They have a specific and recognisable sound, but from their first to their last album (and they got 19 albums) you can tell there's a whole lot of diversity and variety.
Not really seen a list this good before, my only thing that I would do is, put Skynyrd in S (for their musicianship, they have 3 guitarists like Maiden)
Pretty good. Led Zep, ACDC and Beatles need to move up a level, and Lynyrd Skynyrd down a level. Fleetwood Mac up 2 levels. Mega Death has to go on the list. Then I can Dad approve it.
I was shocked and thrilled to see Motley Crue place so highly, and as a diehard fan, I can completely understand their demotion later in the video lol. I hardly listen to Metallica, but they are 1000% a better band. Motley was doomed to be dragged down by Vince Neil, and that’s just something you need to live with if you love their music like I do. I’m so happy you acknowledged that they were a stand out from the other hair bands, it always feels so weird seeing them lumped in with the others. And yes, I am biased, but I think that is all down to my hero Mr. Mick Mars. He was the sound of Mötley Crüe, no question. I do feel a little weird for liking them so much because of the way you described your feelings on Pink Floyd. I can talk about Mötley Crüe for two hours just like you can talk about Pink Floyd, but Motley Crue songs are definitely not paintings.
“All Rush songs sound the same” - Literally changed their style every 5 years and their most well known album has songs that sound nothing like each other.
Axl rose is a fucking legend lmao imagine jumping into a crowd for someone taking a pic of you?? That’s hilarious axl is so funny when he rants at his shows I love it
I’m from Gainesville and he went from the claim to fame to cult like obsession around here after he died. I went from thinking he was boring to now feeling obligated to say I hate him. Thank you for validating me.
As a very large Rush fan, all their songs sounding the same is probably a product of you only hearing their most popular songs, most of which all come from Moving Pictures, so yeah they have a similar sound because they are from the same album. If you dig a little deeper, though, they have many songs that sound very far from this, and they are equally as masterful in all of their music. For some very unique-sounding Rush songs, I'd give Losing It, Freewill, Cut to the Chase, Animate, and Digital Man a listen.
Deadheads tend to be fans not just of this one weird band, the Dead, but of music in general. No other band has so liberally blended all types of music together- blues, rock, country, funk, bluegrass, reggae, and the most avant-garde jazz; often all in the same song. Metal vibes are rarer, but still present occasionally. Moreso in 90s era Dead. Give it time!
Really appreciated your respect to Boston and Van Halen. Boston deserves so much more than they've had over the years, same with ELO. I personally would have had Green Day and GnR higher, but that's just me, totally agree with your list aside from those - but I can also totally see why someone would have them that low lol I feel it, though I feel it. I could talk about this stuff forever tbh so I gotta dip out quick on this comment lol.
@Danny Fernanco I actually dislike Full Moon Fever quite a lot. Wildflowers is beautiful, and there's one or two songs on highway companion I liked. I guess it's not bad, but compared to the stuff with the heartbreakers, it's barely worth it.
I feel like the only guy who loved U2. They're probably more hatred than Nickelback nowadays, but their peak is timeless, The Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby are masterpieces.
Honestly, I would put Nirvana on the same tier as The Beatles, if not higher. They were one of the most culturally significant bands simply due to their popularity. They made the idea of the underground mainstream, bringing bands like Modest Mouse and Pixies into the spotlight, and they've made alternative rock popular as well
I love Sabbath, they are my favorite band along with the dead, but if you think there was no scary music before sabbath... Go listen to death don't have no mercy by the dead from a few years before sabbath even started and tell me that wasn't the beginning... that organ and guitar... the lyrics... I'm sure there was no lack of people in the mid 60s that heard that song and were fucking terrified by it... lets remember Link Wrays rumble was banned from tv and radio cuz it was so scary to these people!
I think Metallica is a pure S just because of their early work. Master of Puppets and AJFA are their very best albums, Ride the Lightning is also awesome and I decently like the Black album. After that, their only great albums were S&M and Death magnetic.
Late reply, but I got hooked on Metallica wayyy later on than most folk do. I was already listening to all sorts of metal for years before I got hooked on Thrash. And their early stuff is like PEAK thrash. Definitely S tier.
@@TheSlyrfn1986 go listen to Wire and tell me it's not a banger. Everyone just assumes all their songs are sappy like One or Beatiful Day but that's just ignorant.
My ranking: S: Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Alice In Chains, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Metallica A: Rush, The Beatles, Nirvana, Rage Against The Machine, Motley Crue B: AC/DC, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Deep Purple, Rolling Stones, Queen C: Lynyrd Skynyrd, RHCP, Kiss, Fleetwood Mac, ZZ Top, Boston D: Green Day, Eagles, CCR, Sublime E: Grateful Dead, Guns N Roses, Tom Petty F: U2, Def Leppard
First you eviscerate the great (good?) Tom Petty known for such hits as “Learning to Fly”….and then you say the Van Zandts should’ve learned to fly…a common thread between the two most jaw dropping moments from the vid… …and then you told me I was gonna go far for the first time in a while. That moved this video to a solid B-tier. Stay sticky bros.
My dad grew up on Thrash Metal, My mom grew up on classic rock and country. My dad’s favorite band is Slayer, and my Mom’s favorite artist is George Straight. How the fuck did i turn out as a Primus and Dream Theater fan?
Good try! 😒Beatles and Zepplin revolutionized music as did Nirvana. Greatful dead are hands down the most talented musicians on this list. You got a few right, like Alice, Rush, Chili Peppers and CCR as A tiers and I agree with your ACDC, Kiss and Motley Crue assessments. Get Queen the F@#$ out of S tier. Move Greenday and GNR out of those shit tiers. I dont listen to any of these bands anymore accept for greatful dead, floyd, chili peppers and Zepplin on occasion. Lastly, add the doors to list and throw them in S tier.... Fun video, I enjoyed it!
Nirvana's talent was a great voice, a great attitude and a brilliant ability to find melodies. And all of that with simple chords. I would actually use the lyrics as the last argument. But for me they are definitely one of the greatest bands ever. At least A.
Seeing bands I consider to be "dad rock" mixed together with what I consider to be "those silly new mtv bands" was confusing until I remembered I'm 40.
I think I am ready to give the Grateful Dead a listen.
Listen to some live albums the dead are amazing
Those "silly new mtv bands" came out when you were still shitting the bed. MTV is 40 years old

Gotta agree with Pink Floyd. Like, holy fuck every album is amazing. David Gilmour deserves every praise he gets from other guitarists.
I’m kind of surprised foo fighters wasn’t on there even though people either listen to one of their songs(everlong), four of their song(everlong, my hero, learn to fly, and best of you), or all of their songs except for most of the sonic highways album and everything after that
The blatant Tom petty disrespect is horrible
yeah based on free fallin' like that represents his music
Bro listen to The Dead's Live in Europe in 1972...it has a goofy looking trippy cartoon guy with an Ice cream cone on it... I felt the exact same way you do about the dead until I heard that whole album while smokin some dank green...but seriously I respect you a lot man and that's why I felt the need to comment in Hope's you'll give that album a listen to... China cat sunflower into I know you rider and Jack Straw, Black throated wind, and brown Eyed women are some incredible songs from that band and the 72 in Europe recordings of those songs are sheer magic
I love the fact that he loves Pink Floyd so much he makes a reference mid review of another band lol, honestly I love them that much as well
I have never heard say that all Rush songs sound the same.
They have a specific and recognisable sound, but from their first to their last album (and they got 19 albums) you can tell there's a whole lot of diversity and variety.
Power Windows sounds so much different than their debut, their debut sounds so much different than Roll The Bones or something, you could go on…
Say what you will about the bands, but there's always gonna be the "name 3 songs" gatekeeper walking these streets...
18:12 one thing I love about Pink Floyd is that not all songs are the same and it seems like they can sound like many different bands in one
Bomb video Judy, cracked me a few times. Tho I'd put CCR, Eagles, Fleetwood & Skynyrd in S-Tier with the other 3.
Not really seen a list this good before, my only thing that I would do is, put Skynyrd in S (for their musicianship, they have 3 guitarists like Maiden)
yes and zz top
Pretty good. Led Zep, ACDC and Beatles need to move up a level, and Lynyrd Skynyrd down a level. Fleetwood Mac up 2 levels. Mega Death has to go on the list. Then I can Dad approve it.
Rolling stones should move up as well
How does your comment have 41 likes when any metal fan would know it's Megadeth.
I was shocked and thrilled to see Motley Crue place so highly, and as a diehard fan, I can completely understand their demotion later in the video lol. I hardly listen to Metallica, but they are 1000% a better band. Motley was doomed to be dragged down by Vince Neil, and that’s just something you need to live with if you love their music like I do. I’m so happy you acknowledged that they were a stand out from the other hair bands, it always feels so weird seeing them lumped in with the others. And yes, I am biased, but I think that is all down to my hero Mr. Mick Mars. He was the sound of Mötley Crüe, no question. I do feel a little weird for liking them so much because of the way you described your feelings on Pink Floyd. I can talk about Mötley Crüe for two hours just like you can talk about Pink Floyd, but Motley Crue songs are definitely not paintings.
I personally think Kiss should definitely be in the top tiers! Probably S tier
I can't believe you used the gif i created for the transitions. Love it
“All Rush songs sound the same” - Literally changed their style every 5 years and their most well known album has songs that sound nothing like each other.
Rush’s catalog is one giant song
@@Sunburn77 no
@@luistijerina common rush fan L
Hahahaha please man you can’t be serious
@@plaguedoctor5657 maybe if you had listened to anything besides classic rock radio you would know
good hiphop/nirvana comparison. lovin the vid u never disappoint
I've never heard anyone say they dislike nirvana because its "too simple" its a dumb comparison
@@amaurylannes his nirvana tier placement shocked me
This was painful to watch
Axl rose is a fucking legend lmao imagine jumping into a crowd for someone taking a pic of you?? That’s hilarious axl is so funny when he rants at his shows I love it
I’m from Gainesville and he went from the claim to fame to cult like obsession around here after he died. I went from thinking he was boring to now feeling obligated to say I hate him. Thank you for validating me.
Fellow gainesvillian
As a very large Rush fan, all their songs sounding the same is probably a product of you only hearing their most popular songs, most of which all come from Moving Pictures, so yeah they have a similar sound because they are from the same album. If you dig a little deeper, though, they have many songs that sound very far from this, and they are equally as masterful in all of their music. For some very unique-sounding Rush songs, I'd give Losing It, Freewill, Cut to the Chase, Animate, and Digital Man a listen.
Gonna include 90s bands in a tier list of dad bands but not include TOOL? Dude TOOL is such a dad band though.
Deadheads tend to be fans not just of this one weird band, the Dead, but of music in general.
No other band has so liberally blended all types of music together- blues, rock, country, funk, bluegrass, reggae, and the most avant-garde jazz; often all in the same song.
Metal vibes are rarer, but still present occasionally.
Moreso in 90s era Dead.
Give it time!
Let me fix your list for you.
S: Every Band listed
F: You're youtube channel
😂😂😂
your*
you are youtube channel
I know you aren't calling Kurt Cobain's lyrics good. Not even Kurt knew what the hell he was talking about.
That fact the he thinks Kurt Cobain's lyrics are better than Tom Petty's is absolutely criminal
I dont know if you're trolling but I dont see how all of Rush's songs sound the same at all, like I'm not even mad just confused.
He was thinking of Nirvana.
I just found your channel and you are funny af. Some real early idubbz vibes. Subscribed 👍
“Should have taken some flying lessons”
Bro 😂😂
I ain't a Zep fan but coome on, they should be at least A.
Megadeth not being on here is a tragedy
The Doors too. Maybe Slayer.
Rush is like the ine band that changed their sound with every album. That's a super wild take
bro is that fucking mcafee on your task bar?
Underrated comment 🤣
Really appreciated your respect to Boston and Van Halen. Boston deserves so much more than they've had over the years, same with ELO. I personally would have had Green Day and GnR higher, but that's just me, totally agree with your list aside from those - but I can also totally see why someone would have them that low lol I feel it, though I feel it. I could talk about this stuff forever tbh so I gotta dip out quick on this comment lol.
Also I highly recommend you get into mushrooms, they'll change your life in some pretty awesome ways, check out the recent clinical trials
ELO is highly underrated. People constantly compare them to the Beatles whenever they seldom DO talk about them, even though they sound nothing alike.
GnR's placement make no sense, it's like criticising Burzum cause muh Varg.
the beatles in b tier is crazy, they're literally the greatest rock and roll group ever
Pink Floyd in S tier? New sub.
Should’ve had some flying lessons is actually crazy 💀
Lifechanging content.
“But he’s dead” and “After I Syd Barrett myself” was golden entertainment that I wasn’t expecting
God I was relieved when you put queen in S tier..
Rush is indeed fuckin epic
Beatles gotta be in S tier, everything else is just crazy. Neither metal nor modern pop would exist without them.
Metal did not need the beatles whatsoever
@@wizardgrape7821and Olli didn’t need tou replying 2 years late saying basically nothing
Man your videos always make me laugh man we love you.
Tom Petty's solo stuff wasn't that great, but Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers is one of the best. Certainly better than Eagles.
@Danny Fernanco I actually dislike Full Moon Fever quite a lot. Wildflowers is beautiful, and there's one or two songs on highway companion I liked.
I guess it's not bad, but compared to the stuff with the heartbreakers, it's barely worth it.
I feel like the only guy who loved U2. They're probably more hatred than Nickelback nowadays, but their peak is timeless, The Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby are masterpieces.
18:05 please do, please rant on pink floyd id love to hear that
Honestly, I would put Nirvana on the same tier as The Beatles, if not higher. They were one of the most culturally significant bands simply due to their popularity. They made the idea of the underground mainstream, bringing bands like Modest Mouse and Pixies into the spotlight, and they've made alternative rock popular as well
axel roses voice sound like its on a permanent wah pedal
The Kirk Hammett of vocalists
@@metetural9140they’re both good??
I love Sabbath, they are my favorite band along with the dead, but if you think there was no scary music before sabbath... Go listen to death don't have no mercy by the dead from a few years before sabbath even started and tell me that wasn't the beginning... that organ and guitar... the lyrics... I'm sure there was no lack of people in the mid 60s that heard that song and were fucking terrified by it... lets remember Link Wrays rumble was banned from tv and radio cuz it was so scary to these people!
I think Metallica is a pure S just because of their early work. Master of Puppets and AJFA are their very best albums, Ride the Lightning is also awesome and I decently like the Black album. After that, their only great albums were S&M and Death magnetic.
Late reply, but I got hooked on Metallica wayyy later on than most folk do. I was already listening to all sorts of metal for years before I got hooked on Thrash. And their early stuff is like PEAK thrash. Definitely S tier.
Aerosmith Songs
1:Dream On
2:Every Other Song
Zep in C is a fucking atrocity
There is genuinely someone out there who had a real argument with this video
War and Achtung Baby are great albums. U2 is sweet.
Thank the lord. Someone with some taste.
Incorrect…Edge is a good guitar player annnnd that’s about it.
@@TheSlyrfn1986 go listen to Wire and tell me it's not a banger. Everyone just assumes all their songs are sappy like One or Beatiful Day but that's just ignorant.
Queen, Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath in S tier?
*It is... acceptable.*
My ranking:
S: Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Alice In Chains, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Metallica
A: Rush, The Beatles, Nirvana, Rage Against The Machine, Motley Crue
B: AC/DC, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Deep Purple, Rolling Stones, Queen
C: Lynyrd Skynyrd, RHCP, Kiss, Fleetwood Mac, ZZ Top, Boston
D: Green Day, Eagles, CCR, Sublime
E: Grateful Dead, Guns N Roses, Tom Petty
F: U2, Def Leppard
beatles in top of s, greatest of all time
grateful dead being at E tier is a crime
@@frogejs6629 Why?
Sublime in D? 😨
First you eviscerate the great (good?) Tom Petty known for such hits as “Learning to Fly”….and then you say the Van Zandts should’ve learned to fly…a common thread between the two most jaw dropping moments from the vid…
…and then you told me I was gonna go far for the first time in a while. That moved this video to a solid B-tier. Stay sticky bros.
i like all of these but im not a dad
My dad grew up on Thrash Metal, My mom grew up on classic rock and country. My dad’s favorite band is Slayer, and my Mom’s favorite artist is George Straight. How the fuck did i turn out as a Primus and Dream Theater fan?
Good try! 😒Beatles and Zepplin revolutionized music as did Nirvana. Greatful dead are hands down the most talented musicians on this list. You got a few right, like Alice, Rush, Chili Peppers and CCR as A tiers and I agree with your ACDC, Kiss and Motley Crue assessments. Get Queen the F@#$ out of S tier. Move Greenday and GNR out of those shit tiers. I dont listen to any of these bands anymore accept for greatful dead, floyd, chili peppers and Zepplin on occasion. Lastly, add the doors to list and throw them in S tier.... Fun video, I enjoyed it!
This guy gets it
queen is great :(
Nirvana's talent was a great voice, a great attitude and a brilliant ability to find melodies. And all of that with simple chords. I would actually use the lyrics as the last argument. But for me they are definitely one of the greatest bands ever. At least A.
Tom petty in F? Don’t do me like that
He cut you down to size!
If you put Judy in 1.25 then he talks in a normal person speed
Where is Pearl jam!?!?
