​@@fatimapalacios2292, the narrative that Guns N' Roses are considered a great band on behalf of one album is inaccurate. While Appetite for Destruction is the best-selling debut album of all time, one of the best-selling albums of all time, and most notably, one of the most loved albums of all time, it isn't their only international hit iconic album. Their Use Your Illusion albums had contemporaneously debuted on many charts in first and second positions and maintained them for long periods of time, bumping down Michael Jackson's albums, and the Use Your Illusion Tour is one of the most extensive stadium tours in history. It had drastically elevated Metallica's sales of Metallica, The Black Album, and established Metallica as one of the most successful bands in the world, and after it, Appetite for Destruction has still long sold more copies than Metallica has, and the Use Your Illusions have sold more copies each than all other Metallica albums have, including Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and ...And Justice for All. Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II have eight singles between them which are played daily all over the world, November Rain, Don't Cry, Knockin' on Heaven's Door, You Could Be Mine, Live and Let Die, Civil War, and Estranged, which are massive fan favorites, and Yesterdays, and there are at least a dozen other songs on them which are generally well-loved, as many generally well-loved songs as are on Appetite for Destruction. Appetite for Destruction is exceptional, but for anyone who's listened to Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II beyond skimming them, they're as important in Guns N' Roses' discography as Kill 'Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and ...And Justice for All are in Metallica's discography, if not much more important for diversity which they provide musically. Guns N' Roses are considered a great band for three albums, and most listeners who haven't heard two of them in the past thirty years should hear them. This isn't to mention how excellent of an EP GN'R Lies is, and everything which Guns N' Roses have released after 1993 is also worth hearing, even if it won't be impressive to everyone. These artists earn their success.

As much as I love Linkin Park, and they are probably my biggest musical influence, I do consider them mainly an alternate rock band. They do have some metal tracks though, however they also have released many albums that aren't quite nearly as close to metal as others. (One More Light is the prime example). One thing is that Linkin Park did become less popular around 2006-7 from switching their music and experimenting with it in Minutes To Midnight, but you can't compare them to the other bands earlier due to there being no google trends. But the same could be said for many bands, especially Metallica and Black Sabbath being as old of bands as they are, I'm sure their search trends if it was around say in the 80's would be marginally larger. But in my own opinion, you can't really compare bands based on these trends, but more on their influence to people, because they are all from different times and had different peaks.

I apologize if this makes me sound like an annoying grandma preaching about good music from the good ole' days.

Id be curious to see a weighting of these google trends (new fans/outsiders) alongside something like spotify listens (established listeners) for a more complete image. I love Dio and listen to him regularly, but i don't know the last time I searched his name, the best chance of him coming up in google would be someone covering him which I havent heard since Killswitch Engage in 2006. Same with GWAR after Brockie died, theres not a whole lot that can bump them out of their more niche fandom.

@@BecomeTheKnight Im not sure if the data exists, but if you could overlay google searches with monthly listeners over the same time period, you might get a sense of a group's potential market penetration with their popular appeal/accessibility. A huge spike like Lemmy's passing probably brought a bunch of people to Motorheads music for the first time, but since as you mention they are a metalheads metal band their monthly listeners probably eventually reverted back to the equilibrium. Something like a new album from Slipknot probably gave them an appreciable bump in listenership after the google search spike. Trapt is probably having a huge search term spike the past few weeks, then as people take Headstrong off their workout playlists the listener number might go down. From that jump, rate of decline, and any resulting equilibrium change youd see: - Possible market impact and mass media relevance by relating a search spike to a listening spike - The half life of the listener number decay gives you the popular accessibility of the band as people hearing it for the first time drop off - Any statistically significant permanent change in listenership indicates new fans of the music who discovered it/changed their listening as a result of their google search. Youve combined two of my favorite things here, metal music and statistics...

Junior Fernandes' name is actually Portuguese as he is from Brazil and his last name ends with an "S" instead of a "Z" like in Spanish names. So you would pronounce Junior similar to the way you would pronounce the "ju" in the french word "Au jus". Love your videos and your scientific take on this. Rock on!

You should do one of these with guitarists

17:17 Yeah I think when we see the spikes for Guns N Roses ans Motörhead it's less of an indicator of how many people like those bands and more of an indicator of their cultural significance. If someone is a fan if Motörhead they aren't gonna be Googling it every day, because they already know the band and probably have the CDs and records already. But something significant happens, their impact is gonna show as everyone flocks to see if the news is true, and then people who are unaware of what's going on will want to find out.

Truth is soviet or ex-soviet countries have a general culture of loving "good old times" as when more advanced tech in any field is on the market, we dont get access to it right at that time cause of the costs of the said tech compared to monthly wage of the people.So here you meet the population between 30 and 50 that grow up to be sour towards new things and new music and nostalgic for older things and old music or rather, older styles of a certain genre.I guess this is another clear proof people like a song not only for it's quality but also for the fact that brings back memories of older times when they were younger and had much less responsabilities so everything was easier.Dont know if it makes any sense to you,but for me does.Its my opinion ;))) .

Nocny Kochanek is a polish band, heavy metal in style of Iron Maiden with funny lyrics. They played under english name Night Mistress aswell.

I would not consider Linkin Park a metal band. I’ve listened to every single song from them except maybe some obscure B-side I haven’t heard yet. The majority of the music they’ve made is in non metal genres. Mainly in the broad genre of rock (subgenres such as electronic rock,punk rock,alternative rock,and hard rock). You could argue for it because their most popular music is their nu metal stuff,but still they’re not a metal band by the actual numbers in their discography.

I would save Given Up, QWERTY and others were more Alternative Metal. Still fun to see that Chester's last song was full on metal with Mark Morton (Lamb of God guitarist) with Trivium bassist Paolo Gregoletto and drummer Alex Bent.

Don’t mind me. Just your casual Ghost fan watching everything go to hell

I love each bands as their own and not try to compare

I like Future Mike's voice, can we get it tomorrow on SSF?

Is there a way to look at streams from say spotify/YT music/Pandora to see which bands are more popular? I don't search for a band I already have in my library. Just a thought

These sorts of videos are quite fun, definitely want to see more in the future. Also wished you would have put Trapt in the search engine, just to see the relevance of this highly skilled band.

I definitely should have put Trapt in there lmao

Mike is forgetting about how popular the merchandise for metallica and maiden are, most of those searches are probably from people who have never heard their songs

Gives me depression that system of a Down is not as popular as all these other metal bands since they are my favorite band of all time.

Check out Nocny Kochanek from 18:54 it's a polish heavy (I'd say more kind of comedy...) metal band. They've also a more "serious" english project called Night Mistress and in polish it means Nocny Kochanek ;)

10:35 Autofill knows what you're lookin for, Mike.
