Ratings key:
10 - One of your very favorite artists of all time.
9 - Killer fucking band. Or artist.
8 - Great sound, great songs, great albums.
7 - Very good, but not quite great.
6 - Pretty good. More than a few songs you like. You'd entertain the thought of seeing them live if they were in the area. Or still alive.
5 - They're okay, but maybe not something you'll go out of your way to listen to.
4 - Meh. There may be a song or two, or an album that you dig, but you'd rather listen to other stuff.
3 - Not very good. You will more likely than not turn the station if they come on the radio.
2 - Not your cup of tea at all. Some people like this, but you are not one of them.
1 - Horrible in every way.
0 - In the running for worst artist/musician of all time. You would rather take a cheese grater to your face than listen to this.

Honest - Yes

Future Artists - Doesn't matter I'd rather have artists I don't like or don't care about so I don't get banned

Sex Pistols - Can't really vote because I like some of their tunes but I generally hate punk music because they can't fuckin play and their messages are whiny.

I am a big punk fan, but hardcore punk. Bands like Misfits, GBH, early Killing Joke, Blackflag, Discharge, Bad Brains, and whatnot. I find Sex Pistoles to just be noise, but they were just trying to piss people off not make good music. 4/10

Honest - yes!

I give honest scores, ABBA really do suck that badly.

Not a sex pistols fan, musically they were crap. I think in terms of early punk, Black Flag were way better. Few decent songs, give em a 3

I like them, but they only had one studio album, so i have to deduct ratings down to a 6/10 (honest ratings).

4 they have notoriety now but their contemporaries were better. Specifically the Clash were leaps and bounds better.

Suggestions: Frank Zappa, Gorillaz

What's that? Do another loud bombastic over-the-top female-fronted metal group?

If you insist.

I collect SNES, and have extras I need to rid myself of. If you have needs, worst thing you can do is ask if I have it, or view my FS thread!

Anybody who voted 0 is a damn liar. There ain't been 1 cheese grater pic. Haters gonna hate. In the same breath, you haven't stumbled across any 10s yet either as far as I'm concerned.

I was gonna say more R&B but it's pretty well represented. Plus Devin Townsend is an R&B name if I ever heard one. I'm pretty sure he did a duet with Whitney Houston before she was ruined by Bobby. So I guess I vote for country music since it's not really represented yet. You should consider some easy listening and oldies too.

Sex Pistols are pretty great but I don't really listen to them anymore.
I'd give em a 6. The Dwarves are my go to for punk rock.

Okay decided on a 3 but I don't listen to the radio so take it as you will.

Put of the big 2 I'll take The Ramones.

I liked the 90s punk resurgence better though.

I like misfits and black flag is ok. stuff like minor threat and penny wise are harder but too raw(?) for my taste. I like the sound of fugazi more but I have done/do drugs so their anti drug message turns me away too.

I enjoy op ivy/rancid, nofx... but feel they have more of a ska sound.

Lol those honesty results. Do another one "Did you answer the honesty question honestly?" So many 0s over the weeks. You tie those people down and hold up a single LP and a cheese grater, and they'd actually choose the cheese grater? I'd even listen to 3 minutes of Lil Xan over facial bleeding and bandaging.

Holy shit, I thought I was the only one who liked Metric.

And Santigold has some really catchy songs. Lana Del Rey isn't bad, either.
