And who is better?

---

There are a lot of bands of there that a lot of people like. I might like them too, but I think people probably like them more, or believe them to be better than they actually are. I just wanted to put a few of them down in a list as well as a few similar bands that I think deserve some of the spotlight in their relative genres. To be clear: I am not saying that these bands are bad, because they aren't. I am just saying they aren't AS GOOD as we all act like they are.

There are only so many times you can listen to Thunderstruck or Back in Black before losing your mind. Their songs have extremely similar vocals and very 80's over-the-top guitar. Try Van Halen, Black Sabbath, or G n R.

Green Day

I dedicated a post to this a few days ago, but I basically find them bland and repetitive. They found a model that worked and just kept at it. They are not particularly interesting anymore. Try Rise Against, Smashing Pumpkins, or The Killers.

Journey

I have been polite on the others in this list. Journey will get no punches pulled. They actually suck. Full stop. Power ballads are neither good, nor have ever really been. A love story set to a semi-flacid rock tune isn't a good idea and if I heard Don't Stop Believing, or Any Way You Want It one more time in a school dance I would have flipped my lid. Some of their stuff, like Separate Ways, is good. Sadly these are hard to come by. Try Asia. They are basically the same, but I think they are more interesting.
