I would rather kill myself by deep throating a napalm road flare then listen to a U2 album.
 
Stylistically, I am much more aligned with the Black Crowes and their influences- i.e., Stones, Faces, LZ, Allman Bros, etc. BUT U2 were a far more important and chinfluential band. Love 'em or hate 'em, Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby were 2 of the greatest albums of the of that era.
 
I have to say I'm emphatically with Swaye on this one. Gasoline in a Styrofoam cup right down the gullet before listening to U2.

Bono is literally the biggest piece of shit, but unfortunately as my ancestors were Irish and my avatar is a direct homage to that fuck, I have to honor U2 with this vote.

FYFMFE.

Honoring your ancestors is important. Want to buy some fireworks? How about drugs?

That
 
U2... Average drummer, below average bass player, a guitar player that plays one riff and a singer that only cares about haggling you for charity money.

Fuck me. There are going to be some OK bands from the 90s making to the Sweet 16 and Dylan and the Beach Boys probably don't get past the Round of 32.
 
I tried but I just can't be musically objective here. Black Crowes sucked so bad I don't remember a single song of theirs. But Bono is one of the biggest douches in music. A real self important fucktard. Get rid of the tacky colored glasses, dumbfuck. You aren't Elton John.

How in the fuck did the Black Crowes make it and not the Smashing Pumpkins?

Or Green Day? Or the Foo Fighters? Or The Killers? Or The Goo Goo Dolls?

Hell, I’d even put a band like My Chemical Romance up against The Black Crowes. I’d definitely choose Welcome to the Black Parade ahead of anything from The Black Crowes

Whom did Jimi page tour with?

Prolly a coin flip between Pumpkins and Crowes. Both were about the same level of importance in the 90s.
