Band: Queen

I've been listening through their discography. A great example of a band where I could hear from an obsessive fan, or someone who despises them and know they have good reasons.
I have some album specific thoughts but more than anything I keep coming back to how odd it was that Brian May never wanted a second guitarist. That guy put guitarmonies on everything, it would be odd to hear some songs live without them.

Queen I & II are bangers. They got spotty for me after that. You can't crap Queen, though.

Trust me, several people on this forum will. As for me, I give them a flat NC.

An early music memory is manually turning the Another One Bites The Dust 45 backwards on the family record player to hear what the hubbub was all about, bub. "Don't Try Suicide" on the b-side was corny.
Queen is not crap.

Some of their early songs are undoubtly NC. Lots of their songs are terrible Crap.
Dunno.

Yeah. I feel the same. Some killer, mostly filler.
Definitely not crap but as I said in another poll, not a whisker on Bowie.

"Hi!"
Crap
On my list of the most loathed. Have heard it all. Unbearable band. Rock as revue; skin-crawlingly vapid purveyors of mainstream English "entertainment" and "performance" norms.
"Oh, but
Sheer Heart Attack..."
CRAP
"Oh, but the
Live Aid performance..."
CRAP
"Oh, but his performance on 'The Show Must Go On'..."
CRAP
CRAP CRAP CRAP

About where I'm at. Great guitar sound. Too much style hopping later on.
