This is responding to a few posts on the last page. If you want to find a really good female musician to look up to, go with Jennifer Batten. She will shred your face off. She played guitar in Michael Jackson's touring band in the late eighties and had to nail Eddie Van Halen's solo on "Beat It" every night. And as a solo artist she recorded a guitar version of "Flight of the Bumblebee" (he signature piece) as well as lot's of original instrumentals. And she wrote a column in Guitar Player for a few years.
Check out Lita Ford, too. Equally shreddable and she did a duet with Ozzy.

I left someone out. Les Claypool. Frotman of Primus, The Les CLaypool Frog Brigade, and Colonal Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains. He's one of the coolest bass players ever. He has a 6 and 4-stringed version of the same bass. The Frog Brigade! Bernie Brains! PRIMUS!!! Go to www.primussucks.com for their official site.

I liked these guys before, but Asa showed me a couple videos today... these guys have a freakin' ton of energy. The Hives. This is a huge-ass picture, but it really captures them.

i waited forever for that picture to load and all they're doing is standing there out of focus. what exactly does it capture? that the guitar and bass player like to look at their hands when they play? that they dont like to be in focus? that there is nothing different between them and every other band? what does that picture capture?

The Hives are a bit overrated, I think. They have some prety catchy stuff though.
I'm listening to "Screaming in the Night" by Krokus right now. One of the best rock songs ever. The band doesn't have a very good catalog, but this song is great. It has a great fade in, and it just rocks. Its a nice slow burner. Slow burners are the best.

You would have had to see a video to really get that picture, I guess.

The picture captures... nevermind. It doesn't matter, because I'm sure you wouldn't like them anyway.

No, they're horrible. I think the only way not to get bored shitless playing their mindless songs would be to jump around like an asshole with ADD like they do so it doesn't really matter if they have "energy" because they suck no matter what. The Hives are definitely an intensely overrated shitfest that don't deserve your listening or discussion.

I listen to gay music, but I completely agree with Leedy. Most of you don't seem to know how bad the Hives really are and how much respect they shouldn't receive.
