Interesting you say Alice in Chains appropriated hair metal elements, I swear some of their songs have a Bon Jovi style talkbox thing going on.

Did somebody say lounge music? Starts off that way anyway. Then turns into some awesome gospel s**t. So good! Great song!

Back to Kiss, I only just discovered A e Frehleys cover of New York Groove and it’s amazing. Why wasn’t this a bigger song.

Well, I suppose it’s the unpopular musical opinions thread for a reason….

KISS' record label CASABLANCA deal was 2 albums a year hence the mass production in the 70s

Covers can't be big songs?
For someone like Alien Ant Farm that's the only thing they could do!

Sure, relatively.
But it wont be waved as the banner of music prowess by KISS because its not theirs.

Bon Jovi doesn’t need Jon Bon. Richie Sambora is a better singer.

Actually I’ll go a step further. If Sambora was the lead they’d be recognised as a great gutsy blues-rock band. JBJ turns them into triple m dad rock.

Literally the best song on the last album with Sambora was a Sambora solo effort put on as a bonus track.
I like Bon Jovi though.

Thanks!
I can't stand American Pie or Eye of the Tiger.
I think the Beach Boys were overrated, and I hate Kanye West's music.

Pet Sounds is an unquestionable classic and they had a couple of other solid albums, but the vast majority of their work is average.
Some of their early stuff is possibly what The Backstreet Boys would have come up with if they played ‘rock’ music in the 60’s. Their later dad rock phase was also pretty awful.
They do get lumped in what a lot of classic bands with extensive back catalogues eg Beatles, but haven’t got near the overall album quality.

Yeah, spot on. They did produce an album's worth of classic singles in the '60's, along with one unquestionable classic album (Pet Sounds), but the rest of their work is patchy to say the least.
There's at least a dozen bands of that era who put out far more impressive bodies of work.
In my opinion.
I like Bon Jovi too which is not real cool for a metal head of course.

I've been really enjoying those archival remasters from the Beach Boys in recent years that compile a lot of rarities, unreleased versions and sometimes a stereo mix for a specific album sessions period. I too think they are a bit overrated, but at the same time they have a number of underrated or overlooked albums that shine with a modern spruce up and bit more context. I don't much care for Pet Sounds in the greater scheme of things, but really dig a few other albums from them.

Eye of the Tiger is terrible. The opening guitar riffs are pretty iconic but, after that, the song itself is bland and the lead singer's voice is weak and whiny. I don't understand how anyone could consider it a "pump-up" song.

Stallone originally wanted Another One Bites The Dust for Rocky 3 but couldn't get it, so commissioned Survivor to make an original song.
