In a band, all the individual members adds a bit of themselves in the music. How would Nevermind have been without Grohl? The Beatles without Paul McCartney? Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band without Bruce Springsteen?
Not very good. Or possibly better. But different. Different at least.
Krist Novoselic didn't contribute as much to Nirvana's music as Cobain, or even Grohl, and where's he without them? In politics. *shrugs*
We all know how Grohl have been doing.
Creativity is what makes music great. Creativity and luck.
Putting together a band without creative members would make a short-lived band. But this discussion should probably just be dealing with the everlong debate whether the music or the lyrics are the most important aspect of mu .. erm, songs.
As I can enjoy songs where I don't even know what language they speak in, I'll say the music is the most important. Yup.
