kiss is barely even real music.
bunch of men larping for sole purpose of making money; music literally means nothing to gene and gang other than paychecks, no artistic value whatsoever.

VH>>>>>>>>>Aerosmilf>>>>>>>>>>>>>>literal garbage>>>>>>>>>KISS

You picked the worst three

Kiss was mostly marketing, other 2 are fine I guess

Why is American rock so bad? After the 60s they where always a decade behind British bands.

Old arrow smith is good

Neo arrowsmith is trash

Yikes, words from guys who own none of the music from any of these bands, I'd bet you a million dollars.
Also you're really dumb and know nothing about the history of either band not named KISS if you think money isn't what they're in it for lol.

Big doesn't always mean best
>enter any Big Four convo to see some idiot saying Exodus is better than Metallica
Yeah okay if you really think so wave that flag but it's irrelevant.

Van Halen haters belong on a cross.

Probably. The question is who the fourth is? Alice Cooper? Blue Öyster Cult? Boston? Or maybe Cheap Trick?

Of course they were in it for money.
KISS' popularity was just overblown as Gene is an effective business man and could effectively market the band.

Yeah, man, other than pioneering punk rock and many forms of heavy metal and much of the wierd fusion stuff that defined the nineties like Faith No More. But yeah other than that you're totally right.

Alice Cooper definitely, my FUCK the original band had some cool shit

>M-MAYBE GENE SENPAI WILL TALK TO ME IF I DEFEND THE MONEY MAKING SCHEME

Are you guys intentionally ignoring Guns N’ Roses?

>Van Hagar haters belong on a cross
ftfy
Yeah that's my thought.
I didn't count GnR because they weren't only called hard rock when they started. Just like Dokken, Mötley Crüe and a ton of other great hard rock/heavy metal bands.

Talking strictly bands before the ''heavy metal'' label came, I would agree with OPs choices.

Guns N' Roses are trash. They deserve to be forgotten.

Ted Nugent, or Boston. If you say North American, it's Rush fourth.

You have to be an old fag like me to know how fucking huge Ted was in the 70's.

>le cat scratch draft dodger man
People should be able to name more than 2 of his songs for him to be big

...

Most people can, dimwit.

Nah, I'd bet money most people only know Cat Scratch Fever and Stranglehold. Stranglehold is a pretty lame song too

I've only listened to his self titled and the song Cat Scratch Fever but I'm gonna go through his discography next week.

I only know cat scratch fever although I have heard of stranglehold if that counts.

You don’t know Jailbait?

Blue Öyster Cult is now more of a cult classic outside of that one popular song

More than 24 million records sold worldwide, including 7 million in the United States alone.

for me? it's david lee roth

No. And there's a 50 million play count gap on Spotify between Stranglejold and Cat Scratch and then 20 million more until the next song so I know I'm not the only one

I honestly don't blame Ted for dodging, Vietnam was a shit cause. Just doesn't fit in with his LE AMERICA XD to go against the right wing belief that the military is never wrong so he has to backpedal to appeal to his new far right meme crowd

I sincerely doubt his band mates that were drafted would've respected him if he actually was a draft dodger.

Barely anyone remembers them anymore, not even boomers.
My point is, the rest of proposed "big three" is still well known and popular nowadays, while BoC kinda faded into obscurity.
Disregarding that, they are fucking great, especially the first three albums.
