Hmmm. An iconic and underated STRONG female band leader with bags of attitude. Yeah I see where you are coming from. How dare poetry be in modern music?!

^ Perhaps he is referring to her 'influences'. I would prefer to think she influenced PJ Harvey rather than Madonna.

Changing music for better or for worse is still changing music.

The Strokes didn't change music they just made a certain form of it more popular.

Thought I might resurrect this thread to provoke some interesting discussion... My votes for the off-ones:

Mary J. Blige - What's The 411?
The Spice Girls - Spice
Michael Jackson - Thriller
Chic - Chic
The Strokes - Is This It?
Nirvana - Nevermind

It's not that I hate those albums (well, maybe the Spice Girls), but that I don't feel like they brought anything new to music, even for the time in which they were made.

I think Thriller should be there, it's one of my favorite albums and it had pretty massive influence, even though it was mostly negative influence, it was still influence.

Anyway, what a bunch of idiots, what horrible reasoning and a horribly written article overall. They really make me wish The Smiths never existed the way they describe it. No Libertines? Oh noes.

And yeah, In The Court of the Crimson King pretty much f*cking started progressive rock but that ain't important enough, that's nothing compared to the massive influence and innovation of The Spice Girls, right? And you gotta throw in more punk albums than you need, as usual.

Clearly kids made this, because their music history is incredibly faulty. Without DSOTM there wouldn't have been as much prog rock?

Um no, by 1973 prog rock was already declining in popularity. Dumbasses.

Agreed. I'm not a massive MJ fan, but isn't Thriller one of the top selling albums of all time? There are few who haven't at least heard the single let alone know the dance.
