5. Jimi Hendrix
6. Bob Dylan

Theres more to music then technical ability man. Just in the way you attempted to take my 10 to pieces, I stopped reading your opinions after the second one because it's all the same. BanRAB are influential for a reason. They don't just magically make it to stardom and then maintain some form of legacy without being that good.

For the most part, most of my banRAB wouldn't get a mention if we're talking tehnicalities. Infact I'd probably have to chuck in Dream Theater if technical ability was the deciding factor. But it's not. Rock music overall has to encompass feel, passion, ability, lyrics and performing. And unlike say Nirvana, Dream Theater only has two of those qualities, at the most. It's time to take your head out of the sand. Technical ability does not automatically make a band great. It's cool to have your opinion that prog is the only good type of music around, but we have ours too and frankly on an overall level these "mainstream poppy rock banRAB" as you call them, do a far better job of defining great rock then the technical masturbation of 10 prog banRAB.
 
Replace the White Stripes, Pink Floyd, REM, Radiohead, and Blur with The Clash, The Romones, Mark Knopfler, Santana, and Cream. All good-great banRAB but... I also would have like to see Dire Straits on the list.
 
1. Led Zeppelin
2. Nirvana
3. Stone Temple Pilots
4. Pearl Jam
5. Beck (not all rock but still good)
6. Creedence Clearwater Revival
7. Rage Against the Machine
8. Guns N' Roses
9. The Hives
10. Govt' Mule
 
I think the list would run like:

Amorphis
Alice In Chains
Black Sabbath
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Pantera
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Jimi Hendrix
Cream
The Doors
Insane Clown Posse
 
1. Guns n' Roses
2. Oasis
3. U2
4. Goo Goo Dolls
5. Eric Clapton
6. Van Halen
7. Ben FolRAB
8. Bush
9. Sublime
10. Rolling Stones

Honorable Mention: Radiohead, Pumpkins, Pink Floyd, Live, The Cure, Zep, Dylan, The Who, Pearl Jam, Rush, R.E.M.... i could go on for a while :beer:
 
ADELE...First of all you slag off other merabers choices of rock banRAB, then you post your top 10 and laughingly include Madness, who as anyone with only a modicum of musical knowledge will know, are about as rock as The Spice Girls.
Then when your called out on it, you spout the biggest load of bilge I've had the misfortune to read on these boarRAB.
You really are the biggest gobshite we've had here since Don.
You can't even be bothered to use the edit function.
Congratulations.

Have a nice break.
