The Adverts say it best, " The world is no fair we don't give a damn". As such Motorhead wins this round.

As much as I love Lemmy (one of the Great Living Englishmen), I give my nod to the Adverts for "One Chord Wonders," which was an inspiration to me. The audience's challenging lines, "We don't like you - go away, Come back when you've learnt to play"...we didn't quit, even though we sucks, we went on stage anyway. Such great times....

Speaking of Lemmy....did you know there is a fossil named after him?

"The fossil in question is a c. 428 million year old jaw of an extinct, marine polychaete annelid worm found in the Silurian strata of Gotland, Sweden. Its scientific name is Kalloprion Kilmisteri.”
