If you think REM and RHCP are the worst bands ever, echoing previous posts, I'd love to know who your top bands are too then.
BTW FWIW FYI... John Frusciante > legend.

Man... RHCP and REM are like Mozart compared to the Black Eye Peas and Lady Gaga.

I used to listen to both bands when on their prime
now all their songs sound the same BUT: live RHCP is something to see before dying really... And REM during the mid nineties had that weird rock sound I like very much both bands play real music when compared to the crap we have to bear at the moment (adele, lana del shiBe, black eye bullphit, etc)

Boys, don't get your panties in a wad. I'm not considering these Nickelback and Dimehead or whoever flash-in-the-pan bands you kids listen to. Don't even know them. When I say "worst band ever" I clearly mean long-running, mystifyingly critically acclaimed acts.
And for the record, the correct answer here is "Chili Peppers". While both bands are horrible, just horrible, Chili Peppers are slightly more horrible. R.E.M. managed to fumble out one excellent song in their decades-long reign of terror ("Man on the moon") and maybe one other listenable tune, while the Chili Peppers are just 100% unremittingly unbearable. |

RHCP live are fantastic. Last time I saw them was Coachella '07 and they still had it. You don't even like "Soul to Squeeze" or "Under the Bridge"? Great songs, even for someone who hates the Peppers. 'Californication' is a great album but 'Mother's Milk' in '89 introduced me to the band and is a sentimental fave.

They're just a Beatles parody band.

The Beatles are, and will forever be, the greatest, most influential, groundbreaking, and long lasting band ever. Period. Their music seems to be inherent in nature, and they have influenced EVERY band that came after them and EVERY band that will ever come.
all you need is love |

Sometimes parodies trump the originals.

The Beatles were a very good band, but the fact that they have so many people calling them the "best band ever" is just ridiculous to me. Most groundbreaking? Inherent in nature? What? They're influential and long lasting, but as Kevin said, often times parodies can be better than the original. |
