Succesful Bands That Time Forgot

[RichardNixon]

Skid Row were really a great band. STTG is such an amazing album, and Subhuman Race also rocked hard and was a fine piece of music, that really expanded their sound and streched their creative muscle. Thinkskin sucks though.

Also, add LA Guns to the list.

mm Id have to add WINGS.  A really succesfull band, but not a lot of people know them world wide nowadays.

[Gunner80]

I'll add just one more to this thread, Powerman 5000.

     I heard Korn and Limp Bizkit, recently released albums, and maybe they were important in the U.S. but they are certainly not an important band anymore around the world their fame has fallen down.

     And also even when they arent bands, are these boy bands, NSYNC and Backstreet boys, remember how huge they were some years ago, and since the Superbowl Incident with Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake hasnt done something remarkable.

[The New Fiona Apple]

You might laugh...but Hall and Oates...they have what like 29 top 40 hits and still get zero respect!

Well, Mac had a really tought act to follow after being in that other band before the Beatles. A lot of the Wings was crap, like "Back to the Egg" and "the wild life," still, they made some great albums, like "Band on the Run," "Venus and Mars" and a few others.

[gnrsmaggie]

[Cornell]

I want to say Queen but I think now Brian may is making a great effort to put Queen name back in bussines

How are Queen forgotten?, They are still topping all those lists you get come years end, like the best 2000 songs etc....and a lot of "young people" are really into Queen these days. They may be the band that time forgot in (South)America but they sure as hell have't been forgotten over here in Europe and in Asia. They're still as popular as they were 20 years back.

I agree, I don't think Queen has been forgotten. They're one of my favourite bands even though they were before my time, and I know so many people my age who love them.

T. Rex

Yeah I know thats why I said that Brian did a pretty well job keeping the Queen name alive 

[RichardNixon]

MY BLOODY VALENTINE: A great, great band.

[Grouse]

well you said he's doing a great job bringing the Queen name back but imo Queen has never been gone, what brian and roger are doing is milking the Queen for all it's worth? oh well that's just my opnion anyway.

here's a freddie quote that kinda proves my point:

"If anyone left Queen, anyone of the four, that would be the end of Queen. We are four equal, interwoven parts. And the others just couldn't function the same without each quarter."

You are defenitely right with the quote, but I dont think that queen between 1998 and 2004 did something to preserve the name (at least the GH3 wasn't that great comparing with first 2) so the tour will mean to bring back the Queen name, is also my opinion
