The scariest thing about the list is just how corporate the world of "alternative" rock has got. The dorks from Good Charlotte get on the list because they have their own label, clothing line and oh, yeah, a shitty band who backed out of the second Rock Against Bush comp cause they were worried it would hurt record sales. Must. Destroy

Frankly it's the sort of thing that makes me want to live in a cave and listen to anarcho punk records

At least Steve Albini, Fat Mike, Ian Mackaye and Brett Gurewitz made the list.

most of it is utter shite but i think they got it right with Sharon Osbourne, after all she is the power behind Ozzfest and the Ozzfest beats the everlasting pish out of all the other metal package tours on the planet, i can't really think of anyone more powerful to make or break bands than her.

Err how can Kurt Cobain be powerful when he's dead? Just a question

I think kerrang should just stick to reviewing duplo, that's what most of their target audience would be most interested in.

You're probably using a program/system that he designed/owns.
Windows Internet Explorer
Windows 98/2000/ME/XP

Buying cds,clothes,instruments and meeting people to start bands,start labels and zines etc has never been easier these days.

He's still a wank though....makes about $90,000 a minute.
Could at least make things a bit chaper.cunt.

i have not read Kerrang as it really began to sick a few years back...and this just proves it.
BUT

Sharon Osbourne is def No1. I dearly love that woman.
And in my opinion Kury Cobain should fuck off to near the end...he is just crap!
to add to point...get Mike Patton to the front and get Devon Townsend up there too... daft basts

I love the way that Kirsty's posts are allway completely incomprehensible even AFTER she has edited them.

Why would a has-been like Mike Patton be in a list like that Kirsty??

Mike Patton deserves to be in there because Faith No More were a huge influence on the current crop of alt. rock bands (whether that's a good thing or not is open to debate but they were still a great band). He also founded Ipeac - home to many diverse and challenging musical acts (Isis for one). He's also in about five plus different bands, all of whom are certainly interesting (and not easy) listening. Tomahawk are superb. Dont worry Alex, I'm sure his lo-fi indie side project is just round the corner

thats the most badly put together list ive ever read

daveo · 1st July 2004, 06:10 PM

Influenced a hell of a lot of bands and people, I guess. I suppose they had to have someone that wasn't a complete corporate whore...

Fugazi and Dischord remain the exception to the rule that proves you can have respect, credibility, great music, affordable prices and make a living from your art. Long may they continue!
