What exactly is the correlation between Poison and Ac/Dc? The only song I can really think of where Ac/Dc mentions parties is "big Balls" which if you took seriously, then yes. You are a pretentious twat.
Poison is most known for a ballad. Ac/Dc has had one slow song (easy rider is it?) in their entire discogrphy as I recall. Brett Micheals is a pretty boy bitch with his own reality show. Pick a singer for Ac/Dc and we'll go about disproving that. I don't see a damn thing about them that was glamorous. One of them dresses in a school boy uniform which might be the least flattering rock attire in history and I've see Justin Hawkings in a unitard. You are correct in your accusations of Kiss and Poison, but comparing Ac/Dc on any of those points is misguided at best and most times I just think "god damn teenagers and their cursory outlashings"

Just about any pic of Perry Farrell could be up there.

I can TOTALLY understand why you don't like that menatlity. I stay away from glam metal and I like AC/DC because they're more gritty, down n dirty, back to the roots kind of thing. This is why they appeal to me. But I like other bands so much more, there's more to rock than AC/DC. Some people will never admit that. |

So everything that predates glam/metal sucks? Oh the Pandora's box you've opened up. You got so uppity with my accusations that Ac/Dc wasn't mindless frat rock and then you make a ridiculous argument like this.

Theres a huge difference between predates and influences. I don't think its ridiculous to say AC/DC were a big influence on that sunset strip metal scene. In fact I thought you were implying the same thing when you said "Why are their imitators such a pale imitation at best and why does their music endure more powerfully than the pretention and scale riding that came with their peers?" If you weren't referring to all those hair metal bands, then what bands were you referring to?

Frat rock isn't actually a genre, so technically no, they are not frat rock.
Thats merely a phony genre people come up with to discredit bands, for example "This non-existant genre sucks, and this band sux cuz they influenced it." Essentially the same thing as when people call Zep c*ck rock. |
