    Is it really that hard to spell Aerosmith? Really?

    I've got to hand it to Rolling Stone, though-- this is the first time in probably ten years I've read anything from them, and I don't think I've ever been to their web page before. Any publicity stunt that'll give you traffic is a good publicity stunt, right?

    Aside from the other omissions, I'd single out "Cop Killer" by Body Count-- huge controversy, changes in the record industry, and Body Count was the beginning of rap/rock.
