Metallica have sold more albums than both of them combined by the way.

Def leppard have sold more than Metallica. You don't hear me claiming that they are they are more influential than Metallica.

I agree with your first post, as for the second....

Metallica have sold approximately 35 million more than Def Leppard.

If any of you guys are in your early twenties or younger and went to a school or college that had a large section of "The Police" fans, then so be it.

...But I honestly think it's be easier to go into town and find someone wearing a "Ride The Lightning" or "Master Of Puppets" T-shirt, than it would a "Synchronicity" T-shirt.

But do you really think that was the pulse of the music scene back in 1984?

Who cares?

...And anyway, speaking from someone from a generation after your own, the cultural importance of those Metallica albums on the list to the last one and the next is alot greater than that of the Beastie Boys, Motley Crue and The Police.

Guys Radiohead are famous in this country for having several critically acclaimed albums.

Oasis are famous in this country for having two popular albums a decade ago, everything thing they released since has been lambasted by the music media and many of their own fans.

Actually during the past decade, Noel has got more media coverage over his swipes at other artists and swearing, than his music.
