Yea but the Dead rated about the same as System of a Down which is pure c$ap. I am skeptical of this chart.

I listened to Black Sabbath at 78 speed, and I saw God.

Totally negates the entire thing, IMO.

To understand Tull, you must have a incredible working knowledge of English history and folklore.

To listen to BOC, you must understand the abundant references to high ritual magic [courtesy of the ever-odd Sandy Perlman], science fiction [Michael Moorcock], HP Lovecraft, general 'collective subconscious' mythopoeia and world history.

I'm surprised The Butthole Surfers isn't on the list, considering.

Even Type O Negative forces you to consider the implications of their word play and entendres.

Even though The Doors are on there, I'd bet the stoners are listening but not comprehending.

Sheesh.

Got a bloody nose in the mosh pit at a Butthole Surfers concert once. Good thing I was drunk, it would've hurt. Don't do that sort of thing anymore, but it was fun at the time. Can't say I actually liked the band, white lab coats and yelling into bullhorns was novel at the time, I guess.

And no Moody Blues.

I hereby declare this study totally without merit.

By looking at so many post replies, I had no idea so many Fr’s were into music so much? And, that's a good thing, a language we can all understand.

My kid is statistical outlier- likes and plays Jazz, classic rock (1969-1987, loves Clapton, U2 and Police), but also likes to perform Mahler, Grainger and more obscure symphonic composers. Yet he scored a 1520 (800 & 720) with almost no prep— sort of an idiot genius I guess.
