Good article that definitely addresses my question. I like GNR, Queen, very early Metallica, Alice Cooper- but they're all actually bands that boil down to a couple songs for me. Van Halen and the Beastie Boys are the only bands mentioned that I really love. That doesn't diminish LZ's sphere on influence. It's actually weird to me that I could love a band so much but remain so relatively ambivalent about what grew out of them especially when compared to Black Sabbath.
