I loathe Van Halen and anything associated with them. Terrible, overrated band. Just because Eddie could play guitar doesn't mean they had good songs. One band I just do not get.

They have plenty of good songs!

And you shut the hell up about Van Halen!


What has Canada given us that is better than Van Halen?

Imo, RUSH is better than Van Halen.

...Rush is totally different from Van Halen and Geddy Lee although a very good bass player is a singer that can get annoying.

Alex Van Halen is a very underrated drummer and IMO he could give Neal Pert a run for his money

Yea dude, not a huge Van Halen fan, have alot of their music and need to be in the mood for them, but I think they are definetly are a Classic Rock and Roll band

Lies by The Undead,covering the 60's Knickerbockers song

It doesn't matter what country they're from, they are a shitty, overrated band in my opinion. I can name several Canadian artists that are better than Halen. The Tragically Hip, Neil Young, The Guess Who/BTO, Gordon Lightfoot, Arcade Fire, The Band was primarily Canadian... I don't like Van Halen though, so it follows that I would think many Canadian groups are better than they are.
