We all know that all arguments about which band is better are rather silly. THe defence on the grounds of music is probably the silliest.

If we want our bands to be great musicians then surely we should all be listening to Floyd and Zeppelin.
It isn't particularly simple by the standard of rock or pop. I don't know why you are setting the basic bar of musicianship or composition arrangements at the level of prog rock - that is absurd.

Foxton is a better bassist than most anyway. Thunderous riffs on such as Tube Station and Eating Trifles.
