Everybody is a music snob at heart who thinks the established bands suck whereas their band that no one's ever heard of is the greatest ever, but few have tried to use Ride the Lightning in that way since like 1985.

I meant to add in 'for their styles'. Perhaps "sucks hairy donkey balls" is a little extreme for LZ but I just can't stand them. Plant's voice drives me crazy.
Come on, RtL is sooo much better than AJFA. No comparison. If you said MoP, that's too close to call... Kill 'Em All was the album where they were just banging away.

That's how I feel abotu Godsmack also. They are nice to hear on the radio, see live, etc. but they are just too 'jock rock' for me.
