Avenged Sevenfold sucks. And I'm tired of seeing that thread title bolded.

I've read this whole thread and I'm still confused... most people seem to think a band sucks, just because they think it's "cool" to say so. Alot of the bands mentioned have been extremely popular during their time(s), so they must be doing something right.

Beatles, Stones, Who, Santana, Zeppelin.... these are all Hall of Fame bands
Green Day... Grammy Award Winners
Nickelback... Platinum selling artist
Motley Crue, Poison... Icons of their genres

I'm not saying that justifies acceptance into your record collection, but you can not deny that talent must account for their success.

Ignorance and hate to musical artists that physically do you no harm is kinda weird. It's just sound and rhythms with (in most cases) words attached.... nothing more, unless you're listening to your Judas Priest vinyl backwards.

Maybe some should look at it like this... If the bands mention in this thread are that bad and truly suck, then those who judge should be able to, without a doubt, produce audio-art that is of higher quality. Right?

Let's hear your multi-platinum selling album... or just your newest single will do fine.

You know music taste is based on opinion, right? Ever heard the expression, "One man's trash is another man's treasure?"

If I think a band sucks, then it is because that is my honest opinion. If you don't, feel free to explain why. That is why this thread is here.

edit: Though if you are going to defend Nickelback, expect some nasty comments.

It's all based on opinion though.
Opinions are mostly fine. Especially musical ones, when it's all based on personal taste.

Yup that's pretty much the right thing to say. Green Day, might be Grammy Award Winners, they might not suck in an exact definition, but many people dislike them.

For example, The Beatles might be one of the most influential bands, but I still dislike them. To restate duga's phrase:
What you think is golden, might be viewed as **** to someone else.

^ fair enough... you guys have good points. I do agree that everyone DOES have an their right to an opinion. That's why we have so many types of music. It's just that the majority of posts failed to describe why they disliked an artist...

By simply saying something or anything sucks, while it is the individual's "right", to say it just sounds ignorant... that's all. No offense.
