Exclamation Kutless is the BEST Does everybody agree??

Sereously Kutless has to be one of the best artists out there. Tell me why you think they are or arent.

I do not because musicianship is a big part of who I like and don't like and Kutless just does not have that great of music. I mean like the choruses and verses seem very simular throughout the songs

Reasons why I dislike them:

A. Their chords progressions are over used
2. Each riff sounds exactly the same as the previous
iii. They're a generic style that is overcrowded already without them

That's only 3 reasons, and it's enough for me.

I don't like them very much. Their riffs usually are very similar, some of their riffs tend to rip off other bands' guitar riffs(which shows a lack of creativity), and their lyrics are pretty derivative.

Generic rock does not please me. They play a derivative style with little to no creativity. No thanks.

Come on guys I think they are better than what you think. They have had a very succesful career, all their songs have a good messages, they are very loyal to God. I think that every band that can do that is a very good band.

Care to explain what is so different about them?

Ironically, many of us dislike them for exactly the opposite reason. We see nothing different about them compared to other rock bands. The only thing distinct is their level of success considering their degree derivativity.

I havent seen anyone bashing them in this thread.The original poster requested that people post as to why or why not the others posters do or do not enjoy Kutless.

No one is bashing Kutless, you asked why people dont like Kutless and they're giving their replies. Jenacen would you rather I not allow people to ask peoples opinions of a band? I dont think anyone has been out of line in their opinion of Kutless and as soon as someone begins to flamebait then I will take care of it.I do not want this thread to be taken any farther off topic then it is now.Keep the discussion on Kutless.

They lack originality of any kind. They sound the same as everyone. There lyrics are unimaginative. And now they decide they're supposed to play slow songs. Goody.
