Members caeman Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 Both bands are hacks, producing a racket of noise that appealed to either hippies or pre-pubescent girls who had no taste in music. They were the boy bands of their times. The Justin Biebers. It is only rose-tinted glasses and old ears that look back and think what great music they produced.

Members guitardustin Posted December 5, 2012 Members Share Posted December 5, 2012 I once saw the Beatles live on youtube on my laptop. They appeared to be about the same size as the Beach Boys. Both groups mostly skinny malnourished white kids. Beatles = Beach Boys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mhuxtable Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 I've done this argument and made people think I'm nuts plenty of times...so I'll do the diet version.Brian Wilson IS the Beach Boys. His ability to compose and arrange is completely unparalleled in the pop world. To say the Beatles could write better songs than him is ridiculous. It's not even a question. The whole of the Beatles can't hold a candle to Wilson's songwriting.The amazing thing is how easy he made it sound...his songs are deceptive in that they sound so hooky and simple, but the music is incredibley complex.Ok, I'm gonna watch a Bronx Tale now.

I would go out on a limb to say that the run of albums from Face-To-Face through to Arthur is unprecedented by either The Beatles or The Beach Boys in terms of consistency... no filler for several albums consecutively... stunning. But underrated? Who doesn't love The Kinks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zappa74 Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 I try not to decide what's underrated and what's not, But I seriously don't know why Muswell Hillbillies isn't more popular. It's so god damn good. By far my favorite Kinks album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a historical point of view, The Beatles are probably the more significant of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fetch Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 Brian Wilson > John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr.Beatles > Beach Boys.Make what you will of that.I'd still prefer listening to the Yardbirds, Kinks, Doors, Love, Donovan, Neil Young, Otis Rush, etcetc. over both them though.

Members notjonahbutnoah Posted December 6, 2012 Members Share Posted December 6, 2012 I prefer the Beach Boys. I only like a handful of Beatles tunes. Wouldn't have The Ramones without either though, and that's what really matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
