No... they are just drones of pitchfork and various accidental internet "celebrities".

Exile on Main Street [Rolling Stones, 1972]

More than anything else this fagged-out masterpiece is difficult--how else describe music that takes weeks to understand? Weary and complicated, barely afloat in its own drudgery, it rocks with extra power and concentration as a result. More indecipherable than ever, submerging Mick's voice under layers of studio murk, it piles all the old themes--sex as power, sex as love, sex as pleasure, distance, craziness, release--on top of an obsession with time more than appropriate in over-thirties committed to what was once considered a youth music. Honking around sweet Virginia country and hipping through Slim Harpo, singing their ambiguous praises of Angela Davis, Jesus Christ, and the Butter Queen, they're just war babies with the bell bottom blues. A+

This is their best album, and Jones is the best band member.

Say if anyone ever is walking around NYC and runs into Christgay, make sure you're first wearing a Black Sabbath T-shirt and then yell "NEW YORK DOLLS SUCK!" and run off.

This album and LZ IV spawned the horror of stadium buttrock. Yeah, fuck that shit.

Nicky Hopkins was their best member

I'm aware he was a session musician. Point still stands

if you don't like this album you are probably not very aware of music history.

Rolling Stones seem to have some discussion at least, but I don't think I've ever seen an Aerosmith thread.
