Best Rock groups of alll tiiiiiiime! whats your top 10?

10 - Bon Jovi

With hits like Living on a Prayer and Dead or Alive (Which will always be the anthem for Lost & Damned), Bon Jovi were one of the best rock groups of the 80's, Job Bon Jovi also experienced good solo success.

9 - AC/DC

Australia's #1 Rock Group, and personally, my favourite Rock group ever, I eventually made my own 2 disc greatest hits to listen to in my car, Disc 1 is Bon's era and Disc 2 is Brians era, :D.

8 - Led Zep

Led Zep, to be honest, ive only liked maybe 4 or 5 of their songs.. not really my favourite group but its undeniable how talented they are, more of a greatest hits group to me (Holds up Flame Shield).

7 - The Beatles

Ah yes, the fab four, quite possibly the best artists of all time, although there have been better groups in the past few years I must admit I do love The Beatles still.

6 - The Jimi Hendrix Experience

Ah yes, Jimi.. best guitarist in the world.. awesome music, who dosn't like him?

5 - The Who

My Generation & Behind Blue Eyes.. 2 great songs, and they have heaps more, they just rock!

4 - U2

Irelands best export, one of the best groups of all time, Bono is a great singer.

3 - Kiss

Oooh yeah, who never saw these bad boys coming?

2 - The Pink Floyd

.. and if the band your in starts playing different tunes.. i'll see you on the dark side of the moon...

All 3 of Nirvana's studio albums are amazing. Van Halen's best albums are from the 70's and 90's (although I like all of them). Bon Jovi's 80's releases are too inconsistent. I like their self titled, 7800 Fahrenheit is ok, Slippery When Wet is amazing, and New Jersey is mediocre. This is all my opinion of course.

1. The Killers -Have to pick them because they got me into all the music I like now. They were my first favorite band.

2. The Smiths- Shed many tears and danced all night to these guys.

3. The Strokes- Julian Casablancas is the coolest guy on the planet.

4. Radiohead- Who would argue against OK Computer being one of the best albums ever?

5. Joy Division/New Order- Because Im a sucker for synthesizers and 80's pop.

6. Death Cab for Cutie- Cried to too many of their songs for them not to be here.

8. Oasis- Well, everything before the year 2000.

Iron Maiden

Yes

Queen

XTC

Prince

Tears for Fears

Pink Floyd

Led Zeppelin

Metallica

Moody Blues

In no particular order.... except Iron Maiden... the best band of all time!!!!!

In no order, as my preference in music changes too often anyway.

Nine Inch Nails
Tool
A Perfect Circle
Puscifer
Queen
Stolen Babies
Racer X

Do 'solo artist' count, it's not a 'group'? Screw it, does in my book.

Buckethead
Steve Vai
Paul Gilbert

And about your opinion on Jimi, not the greatest and I never cared for his voice, Paul Gilbert's covers are better than the originals and I find Jason Becker to be the most impressive guitarist, partially due to age relative to skill in writing/playing.

Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Eagles, Rush, The Verve, The Rolling Stones, Collective Soul, The Doors, Queen, and The Beatles (if they really count as a rock group...?)

1. The Strokes

2. Coheed and Cambria

3. Foo Fighters

4. Oasis

5. Blik-182

errr

???

Ratt

1-the twilight sad
2-the horrors
