However, the influence of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath on Soundgarden is infinitely greater.

Alright, so we're at the exchange, recommend me something by the Pixies that isn't Doolittle... something more, let's say, musical...

With great pleasure Ngw: lateralus and aenima...they are stunning, you can't go wrong.

Hi easy... as usual, huh... I was missing a nice little chat with you ;) too bad I have to get back to work now...

Honestly, the only hilarious thing is your encyclopedic knowledge (are you going to give me the answer on what Wikipedia says about the tools and the isis? Just kidding...)... look, I won't even explain dream pop to you... I don't see what I should explain, pop annoys me, let alone something called dream pop... the bands I mentioned were in reference to your response about the influences of the Pixies on the '90s, I quote verbatim: "if you don't hear the Pixies in all the music of the '90s, in my opinion you haven't listened to much music from the '90s."

no, no, wait, do you see that you’re taking a step further... I’m not arguing that the Pixies influenced Nirvana (who I think are absolute garbage, sorry) and a whole bunch of other bands, but the problem is that I’m not a huge fan of their musical approach... I love the '90s, but I don't think there are any significant Pixies influences in Tool, AIC, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and I could go on for a week... that’s all, probably very different tastes...

hilarious theses?

I notice a certain acidity...

I know what Wikipedia is, I was referring to a ridiculous little book... and anyway, it doesn't seem to me that Wikipedia is a great source... that of dreampop, forgive me for laughing, let's just say it made me smile... a bit like the Britpopper by Francis.

ngw, you see that you haven't understood me... okay, now we can talk in a slightly more civil manner (too bad, I was having fun...;))
to be clear, I don't hate the pixies; I just don't find them as brilliant as others do, that's all... it's not very nice of you to say that people and musicians from different backgrounds can't appreciate them, don't you think... it should make you reflect... as for the valentine, I'm sorry but I find them overrated (despite loveless), and honestly, I'm not crazy about the verve (but those are my tastes, just to be clear)...
Finally, about the guns... tell me where I praise them? I don't think I've done such a thing; I just think it has become a silly trend to throw shit at them: I simply believe that appetite is an amazing album, lies is a great record, and that if they had taken the best from the two illusions it would have turned out to be another great album... Then again, for heaven's sake, they didn't invent anything (who ever said they did?) but if we make this kind of argument, we trace back to elvis presley.
