This post really brought out reddits best and brightest. Par for the course for king gizzard fans get back to me when they get a lead singer who doesn’t look and sound like his mom was sipping a 40 the whole term of her pregnancy

See, here's your issue. You're assuming that the people in here are fans of them and not people just laughing at some kid getting fussy over a band they don't like.

That's pretty funny coming from a Queens of the Stone Age fan.

Alright so let’s have it buddy. Point me to any seminal albums from king gizzard please? Any songs that have lasted and will continue to endure in many peoples consciousness? I could cut off three of Josh hommes fingers and he’d still come up with better riffs than them… do you really want me to compare Voices🤣🤣 dude king gizzard doesn’t hold a candle to any of his bands let alone qotsa

I'm not defending King Gizz. I'm just saying the band you are obsessed with is awful, so why would anyone care aobut what you have to say about the bands they like?

Pretty apparent they are influenced by qotsa as essentially any band doing hard rock alt whatever or anything adjacent to that in modern times are. You don’t have to like them, but you’re showing your ass and proving my point about lacking historical contexts and just being musically illiterate.

You're insane if you honestly think any band playing hard rock alternative music is influenced by QOTSA. You need to get out of your little bubble and learn more about music.

Hahaha there’s an entire ecosystem of bands that ape qotsa. Dude talking about bubbles get the fat outta your ears and try listening. https://www.abc.net.au/triplej/news/queens-of-the-stone-age:-greatest-rock-band-alive/8734806 took me all of one minute to discover your saviors are fans wow

You're a moron, but at least you picked a perfect username. I will give you that.

I just said "I'm not a big King Gizz fan" (though they are 1000x better than QOTSA), but for some reason they are my "saviors". Grow up kid. You can just not like bands. It's fine. I don't go starting threads about how bad QOTSA is. I just don't listen to them. That's what adults do. Listen to what you like and don't pay attention to stuff you don't. You'll get it one day.

The two biggest bands in rock music arctic monkeys and tame impala are admitted huge fans and also admittedly takes huge influence from queens. Just by that their influence would continue to be diffused through others. The first couple sentences say I don’t think they are bad, so you’re not just musically illiterate you’re actually unable to read??

While we're on the topic of overrated, Josh Homme is possibly the poster child.

You’re right on the fact that most big movers in alt rock today are influenced by QOTSA, including King Gizzard. These people are on drugs if they think fast food psych rock band King Gizzard is a better band. the way people are going mental for this band is honestly fascinating to me. They’re the new Tool.
