Sorry I can't handle this guy's mumble-talking-singing.

So, I'm guessing these guys inspired KISS, but without the makeup? I've never heard of them before, but I like them! This sounds way ahead of its time. MC5 totally rocks. Liked songs added: - Kick Out The Jams - Rocket Reducer No. 62 - Talk - Motor City Is Burning - I Want You Right Now

There is some music that I would consider timeless or ahead of its time. Not this. Picture Book should be locked in a vault labelled "80s music. Do not open under any circumstances."

Mediocre American punk. Am I missing the reason why this is on the 1001 list???

I can't stand Queen. This over dramatic album confirms why. The Loser in the End was listenable.
