:confused: I was having the same debate about Stone Temple Pilots.

Answer:
I was having the same debate about Stone Temple Pilots. They took a lot of shit for being a Pearl Jam ripoff at first (which I never really understood) but after that the critics started to warm to them.

Answer:
Do critics even dislike things anymore? I picked up last month's Spin and there wasn't a negative review to be found. I guess that's what happens when your major advertisers are owned by the same companies that own all the record labels.

(British) music critics are a mob of theory-free, witless, posturing Nathan Barleys, nothing is too good/shite for these twats to approve/disapprove of in the (futile) hope of creating a stir.
They've been that way for twenty odd years.
I diskard them with Molesworthesque vigour.

Answer:
Black Sabbath
:rawk:

Answer:
Black Sabbath
:rawk: they've become respectable.
as a young punk in the 80s, i would always hear how bands like led zeppelin and black sabbath were a joke.
