me playing guitar (don't act like you're not impressed)

music is just music,
if we all based what we listened to on talent alone, then nobody would listen to anything besides eddie van halen, mozart and beethoven

music is not music, some of it is shit. like godsmack, they're shit.

I can understand that the song "Voodoo" is void of melodic complexity, and that a lot of godsmack is shit, but I think they still have a few songs that are worth listening to. If Pink Floyd had wrote the song Serenity back in the day, you'd be all in to it, you'd be amazed like "I can't believe Pink Floyd made something that sounds so heavy and is still so awesome!"
Should a band's music be classified as good or bad just based on their namesake?

I think a lot of Iron Maiden sucks, a statement which most of my friends would lynch me for making. I think people like the imagery associated with Iron Maiden as opposed to their music itself - their music doesn't seem to stand by itself in my opinion (except for a few songs).
