Now hush, before Gary US Bonds takes you to New Orleans and teaches you about real rock 'n roll.

But we're talking about Aerosmith's influence on hard rock and heavy metal here and not other types of music. You know when people discuss influences on those genres the same type of bands like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Kiss, Alice Cooper and Aerosmith, along with a selection of other bands is what usually comes up in any book or internet site. Maybe you should do some research....
Whether you like a band or not these are simple facts to understand. For example I really can't stand The Beach Boys but I'm not going to spend my time trolling around saying that they're not influential or there were a million other bands better than them.
