I think we might see some ADKoT votes there, unfortunately.

I don't understand either. We live in a broken society.

You're probably correct, but I can't imagine a world, where someone with ears that function, thinks that VHIII is better than ADKOT.

Airheads or Lemmy? I'm on board with both, big time.

I'm 45 years old and probably make an Airheads reference once a week. "You wanna take a step back? You're standing on my DICK, man!"

I'm sure there are some Extreme fans who prefer or Hagar-era fans that take their Sammy VS Dave debate seriously.

This is interesting. I think we might have a consensus on Jellyfish.

Fellow rockers? How are we on Jellyfish.

Nope, its a slog to get through. RTL is the best. And I dont really like the MOP title track.

Sorry to be THAT guy.

I always figured Motorhead, AC/DC for the Sludge crowed would universally enjoyed and if not respected. Then for the lighter guys Cheap Trick.... for the poppier boys Weezer.

I like Extreme. Not sure I'd call myself a fan, but I think they've got some pretty good songs.

If you rated VHIII along with all six Extreme albums, VHIII would be seventh. It's that bad.

That's interesting. To me, the slog album is Justice. Just song after song of 7 to 10 minute tracks. At least the lengthier songs on MOP went somewhere.

I won't argue RTL though, I think I probably have that as my number 2.

We can all agree that:

1) Mike Slamer was Warrant's best guitarist

2) Steve Perry was better before the age of 50

3) Yngwie Malmsteen was better with Jeff Scott Soto

4) Lori Maddox was a huge risk. Rodney should have warned him.

100% RTL was always my favorite. AJFA is pretty unlistenable

Meh. If you never heard the wall or read 1984

Although the Beatles are nearly universally loved and/or respected you always have a few “they sucked” boneheads.

They were bigger than the Stones (and I never actually bought a Stones ticket or album), but I don’t know if I’ve ever heard anyone say they sucked at least in their better years. Can we all agree they were fantastic at what they did/do and are the quintessential RnR band?
I was never into Pink Floyd or The Who, so Mindcrime is a top tier Rock Opera. It's rare that I've heard an 80s Rock fan say they don't like it unless they just don't like Ryche.

I didn't like it for the longest time. I didn't like QR as a kid or really any of the "operatic" bands. Just didn't have a fun vibe, and I was a little kid.

I know I talk a lot about weed on here these days but when I started smoking on the reg 4-5 years ago I put on Mindcrime and was like "This is great!" (Unrelated to weed, I got really into Rush starting in my late 20's so that lubed me up for the Ryche.)

I still think it sounds like total shit, and the story is silly, but the tunes are just killer.

I'm not a huge QR fan now but I really like that Rage through Promised Land run.

Let me just say, that I'm not hating on it now. I get how they were innovative.
But back in 1985-86, I did hate it. I hated most of the pop music on MTV.
However, there were a few that I loved.
Eddie Murphy, Party All The Time
Phil Collins, Land of Confusion
Whitney Houston, How Will I Know, and I Wanna Dance With Somebody
Oh and, Sting, Russians.

I've been posting here for 25 years (which boggles my mind, but that's a whole different story) and can't recall this album ever getting any kind of significant hate.
I like it, but I think it's massively overrated. It's not a masterpiece by any means. The first half of it maybe. Second half is much weaker.
