[Mr.Bottomtooth]

What about the Red Hot Chili Peppers?

[Spurminator]

Most of my picks have been named, except Pearl Jam.

[DirkAB]

Coldplay ... kidding

lets get some young flavor green day

Coldplay is a joke, but yet Green Day is your nominee? Wow.

[DirkAB]

I'm not sure if I make another pick for the second round, but I'll take the Beatles again just in case. Zeppelin is a legit # 1, IMO only one of 2 bands that could possibly be # 1.

[MannyIsGod]

Tool

[leemajors]

damn, no ccr. what other band put out 3 quality albums in one calendar year?

[MannyIsGod]

CCR is solid.

[JMarkJohns]

JMarkJohn's you can only pick one band per round.

Fine, then GnR #2, but I want Alice in Chains to be my #3 vote.

Not enough love for Alice on this board. One of the most innovative and progressive bands ever. HUGE impact on the music scene. Not afraid to alienate some who limit their fandom by a certain sound... went every which way and it all sounded great and unlike anything before it or after.

Seriously, get music bank and liston non-stop. You'll be floored. Then just for kicks throw in Jar of Flies and then Unplugged and you'll never find a more unique gamet of progressions, riffs and stylings anywhere.

#4 I would have to throw The Rolling Stones.
#5 Pink Floyd
#6 Lynyrd Skynyrd
#7 Tool
#8 Rage Against The Machine
#9 Creedence Clearwater Revival
#10 The Eagles

[MannyIsGod]

AIC is solid.

U2 deserves a mention. The Rolling Stones definetly deserve a mention.

[JMarkJohns]

damn, no ccr. what other band put out 3 quality albums in one calendar year?

I had CCR, Mavsfan just didn't include as I failed to acknowledge the rules.

I am kinda surprised no one has mentioned Lynyrd Skynyrd

See above... My first post...
Alice in Chains
Guns-n-Roses
Pink Floyd
The Rolling Stones
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Rage Against the Machine
Nirvana
The Eagles
Tool

Not sure if they count, but the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band.

So yeah, some know, just aren't given credit for such knowledge...

[ALVAREZ6]

There's too many damn it.

[Zombie]

Tool

Pantera would come way before Tool

[leemajors]

AiC is one of my favorite bands, surprised you didn't mention Sap in there.

[MannyIsGod]

I must disagree. Tool > Pantera IMO.

[leemajors]

I must disagree. Tool > Pantera IMO.

if tool had such a rich rock past as pantera, i would agree. but tool isn't PROUD TO BE LOUD.

[JMarkJohns]

AiC is one of my favorite bands, surprised you didn't mention Sap in there.

As I recall, it's well represented on Music Bank (four or five songs appear on the "best of" set).

All-Time favorite Alice song is "God Am". Son of a that song gives me chills.
