This is actually true. How old are you guys: 11? A little history will go a long way toward making you not look stupid. Anyway, the Beatles are the best band in rock. Who cares if they're "metal"?!
I agree 100% with you. I love their late 60's psychodelic stuff. I don't like the bubblegum pop stuff they did earlier in their careers. I even like Paul McCatney's stuff with The Wings in the 70's. The Beatles really revolutionized a lot of theings in the late 60's with their experimental stuff. It is ashamed, they are credited for mostly their early stuff and being an icon for teen girls.

I don't care about their influential value, i think they are incredibly overrated because there were a LOT better bands than them in the 60s, and The Beatles are supposed to be "best band evah" .. or something. They never released a "Forever Changes" or "Surrealistic Pillow".
I imagine Jefferson Airplane (or whoever they are now) would be among the first to tell you that they're no Beatles. Not that that makes it so. But it is (so).
..which were not even near the quality of "Forever Changes" and "Surrealistic Pillow" (or "H.P. Lovecraft" or "S.F. Sorrow" or, or , or...).
well, The Baetles were the only band I listened to until I was 14 (along with Aerosmith and Creedence Clearwater Revival)... I owned all their albums, could sing along with every single song and well... they're an important band for me I guess.... I still think "Abbey Road" is the best album ever made, and "Something" their best song... (yeap... George Harrison is my idol with John)....
The beatles was the first rock-n-roll band I ever heard.my dad used to play them when I was a kid.My favorite song by them is Bluejay Way on the Magical Mystery tour.The Beatles were an all-time great.Taxman from their Revolver album is another Great of theirs plus many many of their other great Rock-n-Roll classics.The Walrus was covered by so many bands Yeah!!
Of all the stupid ridiculousness in this thread, I single out this phrase as the ridiculousest. Rubber Soul and Revolver, not influential...? BWAHAAHAHAHHAHAAHAHAAAA!!!!!!!
Fuck the retards that can't understand the importance, depth, and positive impact of The Beatles on music. Then again, I guess if you live in your narrow, straightforward metal-only world, it would probably be hard to comprehend
I see that The Beatles fanboys are easily comparable with the Opeth fanboys. Geez, there were 2345232324324 better albums released in the 60s than ANY Beatles album. Get over yourselves.
the beatles got me into music. i still think there great, even if you dont like them they still changed rock for the better. there might not even be metal nowadays if the beatles never came....or at least the metal heads wouldnt have long hair
i don't really get into the stuff before revolver much but revolver and everything after until they disbanded had some really cool stuff in it.not every single song but at least half of every album. there were about 2345232324324 albums better than any single group in any single year better than than any group of that year anyways
