Iggy Pop vs Johnny Rotten

Iggy Pop vs Johnny Rotten

Round 1: early years (Stooges vs Sex Pistols)

Round 2: the rest of their career (solo, PIL, etc.)

Topics: singing, lyrics, ideas, effect on culture, the degree to which they expressed the life and ethos of punk/postpunk, etc.

Oh man Iggy Pop hands down...... Not a Sex Pistols fan...

Rotten for me.

Iggy

Iggy's influence is more far reaching. Plus he was Nona's Dad on Pete & Pete. Iggy for the win!

Iggy on singing, lyrics,the degree to which they expressed the life and ethos of punk

Rotten on ideas, effect on culture

That's Iggy for the win
