I talk about their careers, compare & contrast their mix of darkness & light, and explain why they’ll always be linked together in my mind. Are you a fan of either band? Do you prefer one? Do you remember when you could ONLY be a fan of one or the other? Can you hear their influence on music of the last 20 years? Discuss dammit!
