I remember Kurdt name-checking them all the time, which was probably that more influential than whatever Steve Albini ever said.

Nirvana doesn't count any more than Poison or 'Jovi would count since (whatever your opinion of 'Vana is/was), they were in reality a mainstream pop-rock band with mainstream pop-rock fans.

But you seem to have a problem with people opening other people's eyes/ears to music that maybe they wouldn't have been open to in the first place, for whatever reason. Why?

Not at all. I would never have heard Gore if it wasn't for Bitch Magnet, and never heard Can if it wasn't for Slint.

This is CRAP/NOT CRAP. I consider AC/DC to be worthless CRAP and I'm arguing my position.

CRAP.

Well, I, for one, remember it being un-cool to say you liked AC/DC back in the 90s. I risked it all by admitting that I loved them as often as I could when I was baked in the attic listening to Slanted and Enchanted. The Bon Fire compilation was given to me by a girlfriend in 2002. I will always remember her fondly for that move, and the mean dirty sanchez she brought to the table.

Have a Drink On Me and For Those About To Rock are two of the best rock songs ever written. The later being the best song ever written, ever.

Well, I admit I started to listen to Peel a little later and then he never played anything by AC/DC. Maybe because they became Stadium Rock in the early eighties. And he apparently didn't like all the bands that did sessions for him. But then again, maybe he liked them, I don't know nor care, but, well its hard to explain, but all the dickeheads at school that ran around dressed in AC/DC T-shirts were not the ones listening to his programs. Neither, did he at the time play a lot of music, that was in the vein of AC/DC. If you see what I mean. I don't care if its cool ot not to like this band but I think its impossible to watch videos of AC/DC and still take them serious.

The Smiths?

I don't detest the Smiths, I just stopped listening to them because the vocals started to annoy me.

But I wouldn't call them crap. Good musicianship.

Awesome/foxy? Hear, hear. Can you verify this? Can you post some pictures?

This band is soooo derivative.
