I felt the same thing when I went to check out my parent's version of a rebellious rock band "the rolling stones"

Stones are at their best when they lean towards Blues and Folk. See Angie.

Their hits are all pretty mid.

Gimme Shelter definitely isn't mid, and is one of their biggest hits. I'd argue it's their best song, in fact.

The women blowing her voice out on the recording of it is iconic.

IIRC she was pregnant during?

Paint it Black is hard and badass

My mom's rebellious rock band was Black Sabbath, so I never experienced that level of disappointment. The first time I listened to them I was like "holy shit, this is bad ass!". I still feel that way. I was just rocking out to Wasp/Behind the Wall of Sleep/Basically last night. But I thought the Stones were pretty badass the first time I heard them too. Paint it Black goes hard, and Gimme Shelter is a very cool song. I love the sound of Sympathy for the Devil.
