Number 3. However I would put Welcome to The Jungle as Number 2, Not sure who I would grant the honor of Number 1.

Honestly, I'm surprised Paradise City isn't on the list. I'm not complaining about it, it just surprises me.

And seriously, Enter Sandman was a horrible Metallica song to chose. Master of Puppets would have been the smart choice.

Come on now, we all know that "Straightedge" is catchier than "Faggot Assed Hypocrites." It's all in the marketing, boss. In retrospect, I should have just went with "I Don't Wanna Hear it."

In all honesty, I just fucking Hate the Who. And I hate the fact that some record company was shitty enough to manufacture a band that was a ripoff of this band, all the way down to their name (The Guess Who). It's a straight-up anti-logical thing. Kind of like Blender's blind hatred of the Doors. Only difference being, I don't have Blender's readership and I am not trying to pass myself off as some kind of musical authority.

And yes, I do have a soft-spot for early Hardcore. It goes to shit after the breakup of Black Flag, et al, IMO.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, stab away, dude. Stab away.

Yes it is, because The Who and the Guess Who are pretty much nothing alike.

Yeah, I know that much. "No Sugar" was better than anything the Who Did, IMO. I was always lead to believe that the Guess Who were conceived as Who ripoffs. Maybe I need to check some shit on that...

*Checks Wikipedia.*

Ok, my bad. I had always had that belief. It might have been something I had heard/misheard like 15 years ago or some shit. I had always figured that "Won't Get Fooled Again" was a reference to the confusion caused based on that. But, now I know, and knowing is half the battle. G.I. JOE!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for helping me clear that up.

But still, Fuck the Who. I will admit that I like "Behind Blue Eyes," though. But, not enough to run out and buy the album.

I am not calling them the greatest band ever, because they aren't. They're a decent band with a burnout as a singer. I do like "Riders of the Storm." Blender seems to slam them like Morrison rose from the dead and dick slapped each and every one of them before dying again.

If Morrison didn't die of 'Natural causes,' the Doors would have been forgotten.

Damn, I didn't even notice at first that the White Stripes were on there. That is just all kinds of crap.

And I agree with Diesel Mac that One should have been the Metallica song on the list.

On a hard rock list? Probably Led Zepp.

Personally? I'd rather see Queen ranked higher, and for one of their songs other than SCC. Mostly because they had heavier, better songs (Hammer to Fall, Innuendo, Sheer Heart Attack), more popular songs, etc.

but Metallica? Fail.

So on top of thinking that "Hardcore" is a valid replacement for bands that were far superior, you're also an idiot who's painting broad strokes over bands you evidently know nothing about.

I once was listening to the radio in a car on a trip down to MA, and the DJ was bitching about all these bands that started using "God" as part of their name after Godsmack made it big. He then listed off four bands, three of which predated Godsmack, two of which predated them by at least five years.

Also, the Who>>>>>>>>>>>>Every band you mentioned. They're not even my favorite act, they're just that much better than your tripe.

Rage Against the Machine.

The criteria for the list is basically, songs with distorted guitars and riffs. How the fuck can they not be on this list once?

I've never seen one of these top 100 deals I would at least half agree with but this is just like a redneck with an iPod Shuffle.
