But to answer your question, I've never really gotten into them much... Cool to see live, but never really got into their recordings much. |

Dinosaur Jr fans and Billy Corgan fans can point to all the bootlegs in the world, but the proof really comes down to what is successfully showcased in the recorded work and in that regard, J Mascis has proven to be the better guitarist, hands down. |

Corgan with his guitar work is much like Corgan and his singing style... For some reason he's just seemingly lost it...
It just goes to prove how important passion is in music. |

That is precisely my point. We're assuming cause he may have had the upper hand in 1991 that he still does today... Guitar playing is a highly emotional thing... You can't really fake it, and I think that's why Corgan doesn't even try anymore, and when he has, it's been just "alright". Another missed point is that Smashing Pumpkins productions were these huge multi-million dollar recording behemoths with endless resources and the best producers in the world while Dino JR is the type of group to plug in, rock out for a week or 2 and be done with it... So to argue that Dino JR doesn't have a song like "Tonight Tonight" is missing the point. Of course they don't have a song like that... A song like that takes huge money to make. |

I couldn't care less what happens during a live show... Like really, you expect me to watch some grainy Youtube footage of a 2016 peformance of some Ogi-lala bullshit?
I'm making my argument based on the recorded work. Corgan hasn't done shit with the guitar on his releases since Siamese Dream... The guy has totally lost it... |

Or he's just some superficial cunt who doesn't think it's "cool" to write complex guitar parts and would rather try and ape Coldplay with songs like "Being Beige" and "Run 2 Me"... Either way, it sucks big time and I respect that Mascis hasn't tried to sell out like that.

a completely arbitrary and meaningless thing to focus in on except that you often make up some weirdly specific parameters to apply to an argument after you have already lost to try and make it seem like you have lost less badly. shut the fuck up.

hey guys taylor hawkens is a better rock drummer than JC. man, just look at the consistency hawkens has displayed over the last 25 years. when was the last time JC played on a truly great song? well yeah you can point to songs like Geek USA and jellybelly but that was so long ago, and he had the help of big studio production to make it sound like that. BTW studio recordings are the only way to judge someone's skill at their instrument, plz ignore that I am literally contradicting myself between two sentences here. JC just can't emote like Taylor THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST of you Hawkens, you can't even argue that. No one emotes emotion like Taylor Hawkens. don't show me some grainy youtube footage of JC playing in 2016, his ability to play drums does not have to do with his ability to play drums. it's all about the studio recordings. the proof is in the pudding. you can't even argue that and scholars agree.

seems like who is the better guitarist needs a definition for "better" or else it's just personal preference |

Just check out the guitar... Listen to the part that kicks in after the 2 minute mark. Was released 10 years ago... That scorching guitar solo is just as good and maybe better than anything Corgans ever done... And it was recorded somewhat recently... We don't have to go back 25 years to find something Last edited by fuzzyroes : 01-07-2018 at 11:05 PM. |

Fuzzy if you think that is better than anything Billy Corgan has ever done I kind of doubt that you play a very good guitar

that Dino Dude's vocal performance sounds like somebody took a tape recorder and randomly stuck it right next to the mouth of a senselessly mumbling hobo, then slapped it on top of a guitar jam track

besides i really don't see why you guys would continue arguing about rock bands here when we've already established that the epitome of the genre called 'rock music' has been achieved by Third Eye Blind
