[QUOTE="jimmygrace"][QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="jimmygrace"] People who like KISS think they're talented, just like fans of The Cure think they're talented(IMO they suck).Noboy's right or wrong, music is all opinion because you can't change what your ears like hearing.
P.S. ICP isn't music.It's something from the pits of hell.

I see you don't want to leave it.:roll:
The original demographic for KISS back in the day was preteen boys. They liked the imagery...the music was secondary..and really 12 year old boys are not the best judge of good music.
PS...that is why I stated you'd be a hypocrite. The music you like is the only "good" music and everything else sucks. There are bands I don't like at all...but I can admit they have talent...my dislike of their music notwithstanding. Anyone with any music understanding can see The Cure has talent...whether they personally like the band or not. Opinion is about taste...what you like....it's NOT about talent. Talent exists...or is does not and it's foolish to bash a talented band because you don't like them and say it's opinion. Not where the talent is concerned...only where taste is concerned.
I don't think The Cure are talented because I don't like their style of music.If I don't like what they play then I don't think they're talented because I don't think of it as a good style of music.Just as you don't like KISS.It's all opinions.To me KISS is what rock was mean't to be, extremely energetic songs that the crowds really get into.Sure KISS won't make the Rock HoF, but when garbage like The Beach Boys and The Doors make it who cares.They just wanted to have a good time, not make boring songs hoping to be on a greatest songs countdown put together by 60 year olds.
Then you'd be ignorant of talent and shouldn't make any such statement in regard to talent for ANY band...ever. Not liking a genre of music does not mean every band in that genre is untalented. That just means you are close minded to things you don't personally like.
As for KISS...the band was image...first and foremost...and that says it all. When they got rid of their cartoonish looks they lost popularity and soon went back to the image.
You bash basicially every band I like and call me ignorant for not liking The Cure.Your as biased as I am.
