The Who or the Rolling Stones

speedwagon is pretty fucking gay

Either the Eagles or Journey

The Steve Miller Band. 'The Joker' is one of the most godawful songs ever released on a mainstream label.

Traffic
Absolutely zero originality or interesting songs, yet somehow they still get played on classic rock radio and shilled on lists of classic rock bands. How this garbage group got inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame over so many others is baffling.

Bad taste. If you listen to them past their radio hits they are actually pretty good.

>Steve Miller Band
This is one of the answers. Retarded wacky noises chungus band.

I know he’s a solo artist, but Bruce Springsteen is godawful.

Joker is so overplayed. Hearing a limo liberal boomer talk about shaking trees. Cringe.

Not a band but Dylan's whole discography is ass. His lyrics are downright hilarious at times, it's like the "how to TRY to sound clever with a two digit IQ" encyclopedia. And his """"singing"""" is atrocious, he can't sing for shit.

Their 80's stuff after Under Pressure perhaps

The song Sheer Heart Attack shreds tho
>>
I like Pink Floyd but I never hear "Wish You Were Here" ever again that's fine
>>
>>129981891
I still like some of their stuff in small amounts but yea every year I get older they get cringe
>>
U2
Kiss
Aerosmith
>>
>>129981954
I know U2 technically counts as a classic rock band but they just...don't fit.
>>
It's KISS and everybody knows it.
>>
>>129981954
KISS and Aerosmith, like Queen, kicked ass in the 70s but then it all went downhill
>>
>>129981972
I can't even look at Stephen Tyler's face his mouth is so uncanny valley that's all I can see in my mind when I hear any Aerosmith song
Completely ruined the band for me

Idk if you could call this "classic" rock since it's all pretty obscure, but there were like a million really good heavy rock bands around in the early 70's that went nowhere.

The hate boner for SMB has always confused me. He’s not the greatest or anything but you’d have to have a cold, cold heart to not enjoy at least a couple of his hits.
>>
>>129981566
"classic rock" is any american music over 20 years old.
britney spears is now "classic rock".
therefore the correct answer, is 98 degrees.

>>129982366
>All music throughout history is just boyband music

Kind of mind blowing really

>>129981566
the eagles
they managed to ruin both country and rock
>>
>>129981566
Imo Styx probably. Sappy, melodramatic nonsense with zero edge.
>>
>>129982414
I hate the Eagles but Styx is much worse. I guess the E Street Band, too while we're at it.
>>
>>129982561
>>129982548
Styx is prog for lamer nerds
>>
>>129982366
>>129982377
It has to have distorted guitars to be classic rock, moron.
>>
>>129982548
Styx at least seems like they don't take it TOO personally. Eagles however....

I think so too, but for some reason a few songs on his album “Nebraska” sound nice to me. So he has some talent for writing songs, it’s just his voice is godawful (sounds like a dude with a soul patch I dunno how else to explain it) and the arrangements are cornball showtune shit

andy griffith is classic rock.

Tbh the only thing I like about Levee these days is the drum sound. It gets old and repetitive after a while.

no they arent good albums. everything they ever did is terrible. freddies gayness is a turnoff

The real answer is probably like Grand Funk Railroad or some shit
>>129981800
I only know “Time Was” but that song is fucking great. If their other music even approaches it in quality then I have no clue why they aren’t more well known while shit like Queen and Styx is

Queen is absolute dogshit. All the histrionics that people rightfully make fun of newer bands like Muse for, but ten times worse.
>>
>>129981566
Bon Jovi or Def Leppard
It's absurd how much they get spammed on the radio.

anything with Eric Clapton

>>129981566
The Rolling Stones, easily. Boring British blues boom that for some reason still persist.
>>129981738

Almost every single they released are a novelty single. Pretty bad.

Don't worry, you'll reach that point in your life where the last shred of youthful angst exits your mind and the full clarity of mature perspective washes over you, and in that moment you will realize that the Eagles were always kino.
