Aerosmith. They were fantastic in the 70s and very good in several later albums. Joe Perry doesn't get the credit he deserves as a guitarist

to some extent, toto. they became a meme because of 'africa,' which is one of their goofier and weaker songs. prior to that, 'serious' music critics hated them for being so popular. but albums like 'isolation' have aged well as examples of peak 80's pop/soft rock.

A friend of mine knew Slipnnot when they were just drunk farmboys. Apparently they were never anything but drunk midwest farmboys who accidentally got famous. They were in a circle of a thousand other bands that could have gotten noticed at the time, doing local shows in these farm towns. My friend's band was at these same shows but never got noticed.
