Ok, I'm fine with him saying that LB doesn't have talent. Billy Corgan is pretty hardcore though.

hard to argue

How are the Smashing Pumpkins idiot thugs with guitars? No argument on Limp Bizkit, but Corgan and then don't strike me as the thug type.

Limp Bizkit hasn't existed for like, 8 years, and the last true SP album was in like, 2000.

Way to stay topical, James Osterberg.

That's a complement coming from him.

He probably meant it to be flattering, too.

So some old guy thinks that today's music is no good--shocking.

When you make insurance company commercials, I think you've lost some of the standing you had to launch criticisms at other "artists".

I don't completely disagree with him, I'm just saying...

Modern cuisine is so bland nowadays too, what with all its apples and oranges.

While I am not defending either of those artists.. has Iggy done anything recently.. or within the last.. 25 years?

Oh, then there's this:
"Pop's 2003 album Skull Ring featured collaborators Sum 41, Green Day..."

Um.. Sum 41? and he makes fun of Smashing Pumpkins?

Yeah, Iggy! Way to tear into those cutting edge pretenders... from... uh, fifteen years ago.

Kids today! I mean, yesterday. Or something.

Anyway, keep off Iggy's lawn.

He's old

I love me some Stooges and some Iggy but um ... He isn't exactly a musical genius. It isn't that I disagree with him, really ... It's just that he's kind of a putz too.

No good movie has ever been made in color either.

And don't get me started on today's plastic cars...

WHO ARE ALL THESE BANDS WITH THE POOFY HAIR AND MAKEUP? POISON? YOU'RE POISON TO MY EARS HA HA HA HA HA

Okay, what did Iggy Pop ever do that was so artistic and innovative, as opposed to just entertaining?

It's sad when legends turn all "get off my lawn" and forget that their forbearers said the same things about them.

mattharvest: Okay, what did Iggy Pop ever do that was so artistic and innovative, as opposed to just entertaining?

He was in an Apple ad once, so there's that.

hard to argue

I want to hear his opinion on Kanye West.

ne2d: So some old guy thinks that today's music is no good--shocking.

What might his Fark handle be?

Nothing against Iggy Pop, but has he heard Gish?

Its hard to imagine anyone who has heard that album calling SP crap.

Dr.Knockboots: While I am not defending either of those artists.. has Iggy done anything recently.. or within the last.. 25 years?

Came in here to say this.

Iggie Pop is pretty talentless. At least he has his wacky, wild stage personae to coast on.

Dr.Knockboots: While I am not defending either of those artists.. has Iggy done anything recently.. or within the last.. 25 years?

I may be in the minority when I say this, but I thought American Caesar was pretty kickass.

/that was 16 years ago... but still

He was in that Peaches song....and video.

mattharvest: Okay, what did Iggy Pop ever do that was so artistic and innovative, as opposed to just entertaining?

What did he do that was innovative? Have you ever heard of a genre of music known as Punk?

Iggy Pop was on Pete and Pete.

I tend to give Iggy a pass on most things, but he's making it harder and harder these days. He hasn't done or said anything completely outrageously retarded, but all the little-to-medium things are adding up quick. hmm.

ErikShocker:

I am a Peaches fan. Going to see her in a couple of weeks in DC.

ne2d: So some old guy thinks that today's music is no good--shocking.

It's not even "today's music" that he's just now trashing.
If he lives another 10 years he might learn to hate the current new music too.

He was in the 2nd Crow movie so he had that going for him... or not. It was an awful movie.

TAKE THAT, BANDS FROM THE MID 90'S!

Derwood: TAKE THAT, BANDS FROM THE MID 90'S!

WATCH YOUR ASS, CANDLEBOX!

Does Iggy still go golfing with Alice Cooper?

rickythepenguin: Limp Bizkit hasn't existed for like, 8 years, and the last true SP album was in like, 2000.

Way to stay topical, James Osterberg.

I like Iggy and Limp Bizkit sucks ass, but I came here to say THIS.

/SP is pretty cool though
//at least the older stuff

He's the greatest thing since World War III.

suicide: Derwood: TAKE THAT, BANDS FROM THE MID 90'S!

WATCH YOUR ASS, CANDLEBOX!

Don't get me started on Blind Melon.

To be sure, I wouldn't buy my auto insurance from either Durst or Corgan.


/I prefer to think Iggy mysteriously vanished after The Idiot.

Time to clone another Yelgrun.

Smashing Pumpkins rule.

Can Iggy Pop even play a farking guitar?

dougiezerosag: Can Iggy Pop even play a farking guitar?

In his teens he was a great drummer who would play paying gigs with real blues acts in Chicago.

Man, guys slammin' Elvis in one thread, Iggy in this one. No respect, no understanding. You're all the Fark Independents Of Rock.

PC LOAD LETTER: suicide: Derwood: TAKE THAT, BANDS FROM THE MID 90'S!

WATCH YOUR ASS, CANDLEBOX!

Don't get me started on Blind Melon.fark you. They are the greatest band of all time. Listen to "Soak the Sin" or "Deserted" live.

Go sell another song to Carnival Cruise lines you ass.

I listen to the Silversun Pickups. I close my eyes and pretend they are the Smashing pumpkins, and that they are still making good music, and Billy Corgan isn't a douchenozzle.

THIS

SockMonkeyHolocaust Iggie Pop is pretty talentless.


Yeah.
There is only a few dozen trends and genres profoundly affected if not wholly spawned by his legacy since the 1960s.


Troll or dumbass....either way you are pure suck/fail.

Modern?

And this, children, is why drugs are bad...mmmkay?

Guys, guys, don't make fun of him.... He's having flashbacks from that stage dive incident back in '97.

/Lives in Columbus.
//Had a friend at that show.
///haw-haw!

That said-yes, he contributed a lot to the genesis of punk (mainly by being one of the few to self-destruct slowly enough to not die outright), but this man is long past his prime. He needs to retire. And try very hard to get into this century.

Dr.Knockboots: While I am not defending either of those artists.. has Iggy done anything recently.. or within the last.. 25 years?

He did a few pretty good covers of Junior Kimbrough songs for Fat Possums Junior Kimbrough tribute album.

That's about it...

Wow, normally farkers are pretty lame as far as music is concerned, but this Iggy hate is surprising.

The Stooges are one of the most important bands in the history of music and Iggy was a big part of that influence.

His frontman personal defined proto-punk and led to countless other vocalists giving it their all.

But, why am I even wasting my time? Most of you think that punk rock started with Green Day.

Morans.

I can only guess they were trolling. I mean Iggy Pop. I can't even get offended by that, I can only shake my head and wonder (if we're talking rock n roll here) at the crap they listen to
