Classic rock hate thread (hexbear.net)

I actually like a lot of classic rock (yes even Hotel California, that solo kicks ass) but there is a lot of bad classic rock too. What do you think the worst classic rock song is? What is the most overrated band or artist? I think Supertramp is mid at best, but Bob Seeger is truly dreadful.

So, it's bad to like rock music, and good to like music preferred by people of color?

It's silly to limit yourself in that way and not explore music in its fullest.

Uh no wtf lol

I said people who make a hierarchy between genres with rock on top are a symptom of deeply ingrained racism

My favourite style of music is filled with problematic right wing politics so no I'm not the kind of person to limit themselves for politics quiet the contrary

Yeah, okay. No real disagreement here. Saying one genre is better than another is often yet another symptom of class and/or racial tensions. The infamous "I listen to every genre but rap and country"
