With that said, When The Levee Breaks, Friends, Achilles Last Stand, All Of My Love, Trampled Underfoot & Thank You hold up well. I like Plant's solo work as well. Darkness, Darkness, In The Mood and Big Log are good out on the highway after midnight tunes.

Might get some interesting takes on this. I am 33. So, maybe I missed something. The Grateful Dead? Mehhh. Frank Zappa? Mehhh. I liked a few songs here and there but I have a hard time investing into it for too long outside of a very, very few select tracks.

Also. Same for the Beatles and Elvis. There. I said it. LOL. I used to play Danzig a lot too as a teenager and in my early 20's. Just can't stomach them anymore. Same goes for Marilyn Manson. Yet, still like Reznor and NiN stuff.

Also. Mike Patton, from Faith No More. Hit or miss for me now these days. Midlife Crisis is still solid. Epic is overplayed. Queensryche is another band I skip on now. Unless it's Silent Lucidity. Have a hard time skipping that.

Dream Theather still slaps in the speaker. Burned out on Anthrax though.

I never liked The Grateful Dead, Zappa and The Beatles. In fact, I would use their music to torture prisoners in Abu Ghraib. I lost my Elvis phase when I turned 9. I was briefly into Danzig a very long time ago, but Glenn is just a bit too dark for my taste. Faith No More was o.k. and Queensryche was too commercial. I don't think i've ever even listened to Dream Theatre. I will still listen to Marilyn Manson on occasion. He's a scumbag, but I think some of his music is very "catchy."

Elvis I agree with, except for the raw 50s stuff. That still holds up for me.

Zappa I liked in the 70s but it's unlistenable for me now. Great musicianship, but it's a lot like rambling jazz, which always annoyed me.

Grateful Dead. Never got into them. I might someday when I have time to listen to a 30 min jam.

Beatles. I think a lot of people are soured on them because they are a) overplayed and b) not GREAT musicians except for Paul. But I grew up during Beatlemania, so I'm biased. I 'll say this, they did some of the most innovative pop music of its time, even in the the 'yeah yeah yeah' phase. Most of their music at least holds up today, and some is still some of the best ever recorded, IMO. And they cranked out 2 classic albums a year for a 6 year stretch. When you consider that all that product came from only 6 years of existing as a band, that is pretty remarkable.
