Best Band?

Ok, what band do you think is the best? (not single vocalist, that means britney spears is out boys and girls ) personally, i'm swaying heavily towards weezer (they're going to be at warped tour! wahoo!) __________________ Pearl Jam! Pearl Jam! Pick up their new CD - its their best since Ten. __________________ How can you say no to this face?? j/k does it have to be a current artist or all time?

Would've been Smashing Pumpkins, but due to there recent announcement of breaking up on KROQ, I am deeply saddened. ------------------ And at band camp. . . http://www.geocities.com/bandtour99 __________________ The best band... would have to be the Beatles. __________________ weezer?? umm, i'm gonna have to go ahead a disagree with you there... yeah, that'd be great...

But don't take this at face value. I think their vocalist sucks *** ****** ** ***. My personal favorite band when considering musical talent would have to be sevendust. Fuz ------------------ -So I sez to him, getch yer own monkey. __________________ quote: Originally posted by Reverend Evil: i think i'm going to have to smack you coleslaw. don't take it so hard man! i was just playin'! i'm actually a weezer fan in the closet. still waiting for the right time to come out __________________ GARBAGE!!!!!!!! __________________ Blink Baby!!!!!! Blink-182 [This message has been edited by Sjarred (edited 05-31-2000).] __________________ Present Band would have to be Garbage. They're definitely in the top 5 for powerful bands in the last couple of years, and they are defined as a Band. Smashing Pumpkins is also a fav of mine. For Bands that aren't as strong now, R.E.M. has to be one of the best of my time, and my favorite group of all time Depeche Mode. I was at that concert in the Rose Bowl where they recorded "Everything Counts" live. Remember, these guys had a record signing so big over 1/2 million people came to downtown LA, and the police had to move in As far as The Beatles - I love them but don't remember them. Rush? Hmm, are you dating yourself? ------------------ Ço£o§§ü§ - yeah you can read into it... __________________ quote: Rush? Hmm, are you dating yourself? Not really. The local "rock" radio stations play a whole lotta older stuff. I probably hear ac/dc at least once every hour. Fuz ------------------ -So I sez to him, getch yer own monkey. __________________ man coleslaw dont sell out nirvana is the best band of all time i dont think it would be the beatles cuz their lyrics just plain suck. they have no meaning and are all full of fluff. i just gotta go with nirvana. __________________ wow i have 30 posts. imagine that. another meaningless post to add to my collection. __________________ wow, you have 30 posts! Wow...i have...2/3 of 1000. I suddenly feel depresesed at my need for a life outside of this board. Once I get back to San Diego over the summer, I'll be too distracted with my girlfriend (yes, the whole time ) to post on this board, so i guess I'm just filling the void for the meantime (i just feel wasteful when i play games for too long...so i come here). Back to the topic at hand...my favorite band is still Blink, and my favorite vocalist is possibly Marshall Mathers (eminem). Yes, i know you said best band, not vocalist, so i listed them too. ProMinx ps - 16 days and counting until i get to go home! Long distance relationships can be as tough as hell.

Even if they are breakin' up, their Twins, Mellon Collie, and Adore are T-riffic albums. __________________ METALLICA!! And I don't care if you think they are sellouts! I know they are still great! __________________ The Offspring. No doubt about it. Well, either them or Red Hot Chili Peppers. Yeah thats it. No doubt about it now.
