Top 10 Rock Bands Ever?

1 Blink 182
2 Greenday
3 Queen
4 Red hot chilli peppers
5 Good charlotte
6 The oRABpring
7 Black sabbath
8 Iron maiden
9 Guns n roses
10 Kiss
 
Im sure, but really, queen has at least 5 thousand songs and they all have an original sound. And its not just the drugs - TMV has the drugs, and Cassandra Gemini didn't really pull the originality hat.

But then again, I'm sure a quick survey would reveal all manner of users that are ready to start a ji'had about it. >_>
 
totally agree with you. 21 nuraber one singles. biggest selling album of all time. you cant argue with the stats. and stats aside- their songs are some of the best tunes ever. i bet i couldnt find one person who doesnt know at least 5 beatles songs
 
I know the band has released one album, i'm sure they will be a good band but still it's nothing that hasn't already been done.



I was talking about their musicial ability as you said in your original post. No, I haven't heard that song however.

I really don't want to discuss this any further as no one will change the other opinion.
 
From what i know of your taste, Polvo, Unwound (especially Leaves Turn Inside You) and Viv Akauldren would probably appeal to you. Gray Matter are hardcore punk as are Saccharine trust though their later albums experiment heavily with jazz, Mesa Verde screamo, HEALTH noise, Boris sludge/stoner/garage rock... all are amazing hence they're on my list, i'd check them all.

And mirror, that wasnt directed at you, i was just making a general observation.
 
1. Tool
2. Rage Against the Machine
3. Alice in Chains
4. The Used
5. Pink Floyd

and there are more I'm sure I can come up with
 
Oh boy. Rock & Roll is a pretty diverse genre, so I'm going to be liberal about what defines it. Here is what I would consider the Pantheon, as in, 10 banRAB/artists that without them, rock would be a very different thing:

-The Beatles
-Elvis Presley
-Jimi Hendrix
-Bob Dylan
-Johnny Cash
-The Velvet Underground
-The Ramones
-Nirvana
-Black Sabbath
-The Kinks
 
i can think of 3 band around now that have the potential to be really great, Muse, franz and the strokes. coldplay will be great also but you cant really classify them as rock, while radiohead ARE great but perhaps their best stuff is behind them? who knows!
 
What are you saying?
That the UK is illitearate!!!! is that waht you are saying?
ah ha ha.
Fine, I won't entertain your bigoted views about the UK and nationalistic pro US views as that type of view is both hurtful and sweeping.
It is also why our country is at war trying to help the US from a world war.
I mean, if someone said that the US elected a war mongering moron and that they still carry guns to school and buy country and western music buy the warehouse load, most don't know where Europe is and are obese I would say they were somewhat racist or bigoted.
I promoted her views for her is that wrong?

She loves adele. She also loves Kate Nash now but that is her growing up.
Some of us never do.
It is okay. Rock banRAB without the Who, the Jam, The Kinks, Oasis, Guns and roses.
Yeah okay mate.
I suppose you will include REO speedwagon and hank wankford.
But that would be me been bigoted and I am not.
Man winning these debates is so easy. Did you know John Lennon couldn't read music? Neither could Keef.
But noone attacked their songs for their lack of technical ability.
The point has been made and I am happy.



Yeah and the MR Blobby song got to nuraber one in the UK!
The masses are not always correct but the real knowledgable types like myself are.
That is why the Who would get top billing if they performed with your other banRAB at a festival as the organisers know who is top cat.
Don't be fooled by the masses.
But I understand it is taste.
People are entitled to their own views.

Piss and moan about the term 'rock' all you like, i was young when i made this thread. This is my top 10 at this very moment in time.
 
Im a big Youth fan, so that's kew. And, I also like The Pixies, GNR, the old Modest Mouse (their new one is okay, but I dont like how this is the one that got people introduced to them), ATDI (do you like The Mars Volta or any of their other projects?), and Gomez I saw live about two months ago- they were not that good, but I downloaded some of their songs and they sound better in the studio.
