Chili Peppers

 

[allvol123]

Pilot. Not really close.

 

[milohimself]

RHCP pre-Frusciante

Nothing against him, he's an excellent guitarist, I just liked their style a lot more before he joined.

STP in a landslide...

Interesting. You know which I like better than I do?

I do like STP, but I always felt they were the shallow Los Angeles interpretation of grunge.

Except they're from San Diego.

STP gets my vote. Although I really like both of 'em.

STP. I like Weiland's voice and the band in general has a heavier feel. You feel like a BA when you listen to it. I believe he is a Fighting Irish fan.

Sex type thing - head shaker

 

[Coach Grizz]

STP!! Dead and bloated best song by STP IMO.

Agreed but blood sugar is a great album. My favorite is uplift mofo party plan

Tough one.

It's really close but I'm gonna go with Chili Peppers.

 

[TOP]

Weird that the people picking Chili Peppers think it's close and most of the STP fans are saying it's not even close. smh

 

[KingsportVol88]

Stp

 

[DinkinFlicka]

It's really tough to compare a San Diego grunge/oldschool style rock band to a funk/pop/metal band.

STP was better when Weiland was an addict, as it goes with most rock stars.

RHCP was better when Flea was a pure thumper and Navarro was in the band. (Bloodsugarsexmagik owns!)

STP for me, but the Peppers can still bring it.

I saw STP in Nashville last year, in a concert I never thought I'd see for 1) they broke up and I never thought they'd get back together and 2) I was for sure SW would be dead by now. In the end, it was an awesome concert I waited almost 20 years for.
