I wish, but I really doubt it.
#3, however, is totally OTM.

I like Jandek but I am not sure if he's in any rockist canon...is he?

Wait, no one said Steely Dan?

#4 was probably a gag answer and yet the list still kept going! You'd think they would have ignored it and used the numeral 4 for the next real answer, but it wasn't to be...

Led Zeppelin?

Alice Cooper maybe

I would rather like to as: Is there an act that figures high in most rocklist canons that is not loved by a lot of ILM'ers?

Neither are Burzum nor Magna.

Well, rule #1 is that there are always some ILMers who will like something, no matter how obscure or disliked it is elsewhere.
Are there artists that are loved by the "rock canon" and yet get a lot less love on ILM? Surely Dylan, Springsteen, 60s San Fran scene, etc.

"Neither are Burzum nor Magna."
Magna's on the No Copyeditors Rock 100 list.

U2 meet a lot of hatred here.

I'm seeing mostly differing ideas of what the rockist canon is. (Not to mention "rocklist canon" and "rock canon") Or maybe some of these are jokes I'm not getting...

Prince is probably more popist, right?

I assume the repetition of #6 was meant to slight your mom's place in the rockist canon, not Prince's.

Talking Heads

Talking Heads? See, now they're too apollonian to be called rockist.

Shed Seven
― max r, Saturday, 29 September 2007 00:52 (sixteen years ago) link
LOL. Shed Seven don't belong in either the rockist canon nor the ILM one. :)
― Geir Hongro, Saturday, 29 September 2007 16:13 (sixteen years ago) link
i think it is pretty clear that shed seven are one of the most critically acclaimed bands of all time: hugely influencial, massive fanbase, innovative, sexy, glamourous, intelligent... how can you not worship them?
