I'll speak for myself. I think of Motley Crue the same way I think about KISS. To me, it's all style and no substance. I just don't think the music is worth listening to at all. The "show" is more important than the "music". It's like a Britney Spears concert or something. Too much marketing and both bands were like gimmicks. They just wanted to be famous just for the sake of being famous and getting laid. I don't see any attention paid to the music. I don't see any credible art created by Kiss or the Crue. It's fluff to me.
I don't particularly think Coldplay are that good, but at least they put some effort into their music. They aren't some circus act of a band. I don't like their music that much but have some respect for them as musicians. I don't respect KISS or Motley Crue for their music. It's pretty bad when I say Coldplay are better than both these bands. haha
That's my opinion anyway. To each their own.
