As for not being musically expressive, I'm not sure how to read this. Either you're joking, or you don't know what the phrase means.

The whole album was meant to be mainstream. That's why they hired Rick Rubin to produce it. Mother's Milk and the albums before that were more expressive musically in my opinion. They had much more of a funky, improvisational feel than BSSM. Perhaps you're the one who doesn't understand the phrase "musically expressive"? Maybe you should stick to your geek rock.

Hands down the song that makes me want to flat out punch an infant is Cheap Trick's "I Want You To Want Me"
I won't smear Neil Young, his instrumentals are great but that guy's voice is nails on a chalkboard to me.
Throwing into the "overplayed" pile would be Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear the Reaper". I am so SICK of that damn song.

And also Guns N Roses. Mainly Axl Rose himself. His voice is just awful in so many ways. I do admire Slash and his guitar work but Axl Rose just kills it.

Ever notice that most of the Great Songwriters really have no business near a Microphone......
Neil Young
Bob Dylan
Bruce Springsteen
Tom Petty
Pete Townsend
To name a few....and I do like most of them...but sometimes....nails on a chalkboard

I agree and I'll take it a step further...this is gonna be very controversial, but I think Bob Dylan is probably THE MOST overrated performer ever. The guy is legitimately horrible.
Sure, he has written some good songs, but have you heard his version of watchtower? It's just terrible! If it wasn't for people like Hendrix to make his songs good, he would have faded away a long time ago!
At least Bruce rocks out and has energy and a great band, what does Dylan have, but a horrible voice, terrible guitar playing and harmonica playing that sounds like a dying cat?

Hendrix really doesn't have any business near a microphone either....Don't get me wrong, their songwriting was their strong point....and I like a lot of Dylan's music just the way he plays it. Just not a singer...IMHO
Bruce is a great songwriter but If Bruce didn't have the "E" street Band......he'd be a lounge singer

"Hail to the Chief" because of what will follow (or more readily WHO will follow).

Also regarded by many as the most influential music artist of the last 50 years.

sorry, I finally got around to following up on this debate.
I'll give you that Dylan is the main reason a lot of the best artists even got into music, so he deserves credit for that. I still think his own performances are horrible.
I get that you don't need to be the best techinal musician to be brilliant and influential, but there is a line where somebody is just unlistenable

I totally get this.....
I use to make fun of Dylan and had a pretty good impersonation of him down...I could not listen to him and that nasal wining that he calls singing...then one day I realized I liked him and now give him credit for the great songwriter he is.
I saw him once too....he sucked.
