Janes Addiction. Nothing Shocking is the shit.

Then the Pixies, then RHCP. Never been much of a Chili Pepper fan but i like a couple of their songs.

Jane's Addiction.

Red Hot Chili Peppers would be second. Flea's bass playing is great although I don't like much of their stuff after Blood Sugar Sex Magic.

I don't really know much about the Pixies.

RHCP.

And how is this Superchop material. This is great offseason fodder. Did you listen to the Silversun Pickup tunes I posted yet.

I love me some Jane's Addiction. Just really good shit! I could listen to all three, but if I had to pick one.

Plus, the Pixies always remind me of TDK from the old Broncos Mania. :D

RHCP by a lot for me, one of my favorite bands. I like all 3 bands, but I do think James Addiction is vastly over rated.

well, it's completely random and self-indulgent, so. . .

and no, but i'm about to. . .


it's tough for me to take anyone over JA, but on intense reflection, i had to give the nod to the pixies. . . more good albums, and a more diverse sound. . . the chick vocals over punk-ish stuff does it for me, and they're the masters. . .

obviously, there's no wrong answer-- all three are phenomenal. . .

Jane's Addiction blows. I walked out on their set after a couple songs 2-3 years ago.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are immortal.

The Pixies are old.

RHCP's schtick got old. Should've broken up a long time ago. Can they afford shirts yet?

Janes Addiction is who cares.

Pixies are the best of them all. Doolittle > any combination of RHCP/JA albums. Any band that features on the NCAA 2006 soundtrack is always gonna win. Pixies also influenced much better bands than the other 2.

I wont bash the others as I can listen to all 3. But I'd prefer to listen to RHCP 10 time out of 10 if given a choice of these three

Was that the NIN/JA tour we were both at? I wanted to leave after Reznor's set. Chili Peppers are great and the Pixies are pretty good though I haven't heard most of their stuff.

RHCP wins out for me, largely on their live shows. Those fellows know how to entertain.

RHCP and its not even close at all. They are still making hit after hit and are timeless. In fact they are the only thing I enjoyed at the SuperBowl. Plus they are from California!!

Janes Addiction has only a few good songs. The Pixies??? Who???

The Pixies are IMO the greatest band of that late 80's early 90's era. Quirky, fun, fast, off beat, creatively discordant, extremely influential. I like JA an awful lot too. RHCP are...OK. I don't change the channel but they are never on a playlist of mine
