Major Isewater Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 My top 3 Coldplay ( as welcome as coldsores ) media darlings who can do no wrong . The ' go to ' group ' for any particular ' opening ' . When Mrs Isewater opened the fridge last night I expected Coldplay to be there with their whining vocals and lack of imagination. They are the musical équivalent of Balotelli. Red Hot Chili Peppers The tedious bad boy image masks the fact that all their songs are the same and sung by a donkey on heat. The winner of The Emperor's new clothes award goes to ... Oasis The biggest load of dross in the history of music . None of their songs have a meaning but as long as it rhymes they rattle them out . Nick some ex Beatles and Indy riffs and the jobs a good 'un . All my opinion of course , do you agree or have you other candidates ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonBristolian Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 I saw the Red Hot Chili Peppers headline a festival. I'm not a fan but was happy enough to watch them with an open mind. They were utterly, utterly dire. Even their better songs were utterly lacklustre. Dreadful live band.

What the hell have they ever done! I'll bite! They redefined dance music in the late 80's and gave us the genre that was to become trip-hop. What have Coldplay ever given us?

054123 Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Agree with 2 of the 3. Oasis influenced a generation and we haven't had anything like it since. Musically you may be right but as legacy goes, it is what is and can't be denied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking as someone who loves their music (at least first time around), and was happy to be part of the Madchester scene, I agree that they have been deified way beyond what their back-catalogue would suggest.

Lanterne Rouge Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 We allowed solo artists? Elvis Presley, I know I was a youngster in the 60s so wasn`t aware of the changes in music that were happening but I don`t think he was all that.
