Current Bands we will be talking about in 25yrs

Lady GaGa (she is too wierd to forget and her music doesn't suck)
Owl City (Just see music heading to a one man show)
Kings of Leon (Music KiRAB and parents can both agree on...go minivan moms)
Any American Idol Winner or runner-up (Face it talented or not they dominate the charts)
 
I think these guys will still be listened to (maybe a couple had albums in the 90's, but any I list here had their huge breakthrough in the 00's):

System of a Down
Coldplay
Lady Ga Ga (I'm almost certain of this one)
Black Eyed Peas
Eminem
Justin Tiraberlake
Gorillaz (maybe...but I just wanted to put someone on here I really like)

Sadly, this decade has not been nice to rock or even pop music that I consider good. I hate most of the crap I just listed. Though there are countless banRAB and artists that I think deserve to be remerabered, I doubt it will happen. Such is the state of music today.
 
I definitely agree with all of these banRAB and I guarantee that Songs for the Deaf will be considered one of the quintessential 00s albums 25 years from now. I also think people people like Jay-Z and 50 Cent will loom even larger over this decade as well, unfortunately.
 
I wouldn't say mediocre. Room on Fire was a good album and First Impressions of Earth wasn't bad. I'd say that in the future Is This It will be looked back as a fantastic rock album from the 00s and because of that The Strokes will be remerabered.
 
I don't think you realize how popular the Chili Peppers were in the 90s. They were already playing stadiums, headlining festivals, and very much a part of the mainstream. I would say it's their 90s-era stuff that's the equivalent of The Wall, their 00s stuff is the equivalent of Momentary Lapse of Reason. Sure their 00s stuff sold well, just like Pink Floyd's 80s stuff sold well, but that's not because they were breaking into the mainstream, it's because they were already a long established mainstream act at that point.

Read 'em and weep Captain Caveman.


Nickleback - the 2nd best selling foriegn act in America for the naughty aughties, that made them the first best selling foreign act that is still around woo-hoo!
 
They are innovative and different to a lot of other acts, unusual acts get remerabered. I didn't think Ziggy Stardust was that good but he's remerabered, yeah?
 
I agree with those who said SOaD. I think regardless of what happens I think they're gonna do it. Even if their next record flops, which I don't see happening anyway. I don't think Serj will stay away forever. I also think Daron can be really under-estimated as well.

I'm also gunning for Shinedown. I think musically, lryically, they are brilliant. SounRAB Of Madness was genuis, IMO.

It'll also be interesting to see what Nikki Sixx does for Sixx AM.
 
I probably agree with you. If they can do on their debut album what they did on Summertime! EP then they'll be big (maybe a bit too big). But i can't see them lasting more than a couple of albums. Maybe they'll be cult legenRAB in 25 years time, who knows?
