Guns And Roses for sure. I saw them in concert last October. Was really cool to see them. I like Linkin Park a lot, but I am not thrilled with the new album.

I guess it depends on who you ask. I would say the greatest bands/singers are the ones that have had the most positive influence on people to copy them/or start thier own bands, or maybe they started a new sound that became one of the standards of the music world.
Maybe it might be better to ask, what Bands have had the greatest influence on us?

I can name about 20 right off the top. A few are not bands, but all have had a big influence.
Led Zepplin, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Metallica, The sex pistols, The Pretenders, AC/DC, The Clash, Eric Clapton, BB King, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly, The Temptations, Diana Ross, Van Halen, Aretha Franklin, Pink Floyd, Hank Williams, George Jones, Loretta Lynn, Garth Brooks, Elton John, Muddy Waters, Madonna, James Brown, The Beastie Boys, The Fat Boys, Prince, Run DMC. I'll throw Tom Jones in there too, hes just oozes cool.
Watch VH1's "Behind The Music" sometime. Good show.

No doubt! Ozzie was one of the best front men of all time! And a whole lot of rock bands cut thier teeth playing "Ironman" in the garage.

Lynard Skynard, Nirvana, or Led Zepplin!

bradley300
09-21-2003, 06:54 AM
metallica tops the list, no doubt about it. they have proven they can play almost any kind of song, heavy, fast, melodic ballads and even a mixture of all of them in 1 song and it always sounds good. they have had more influence on new bands than you can imagine, and Master of Puppets is the most complete thrash album ever release, not to mention the first thrash album to sell 500,000 copies.
they played with a symphony for god's sake, and it sounded awesome
2nd is a tie between black sabbath, led zep and nirvana. all 4 of these bands have had more influence than all the others and if not for them music now would probably be not worth listening to.

curt, you are right nirvana cant carry a tune in a buckett, but it looks like thats what it took to change music in the 90's.

Well I would say Metallica also they set the stage for what some other bands strive for. There are not afraid to got out on a limb and try something new. where most of the other bands sound the same which gets boring after a few albums. They got attitude like they dont give a @#$% what people say. and more and more people jump on the bandwagon from the newer generation that never heard of metallica at there start of there carreer.
I would also say PHish is another great influential band with one of the Biggest followings Like the Dead They Played for 75,000 this past August in MAine. not too many band could fulfilll that quote like these two.

All the other bands are good but not as a "ICON" status

Leppelin

my vote is Metallica. they are so influential to many others Chimaira-Down Again or Chimaira-Implement of Destruction(first 2 to pop in my head), both have a definate old school metallica feeling to them

close second has to be nirvana. even though he whined a lot and couldnt hold a tune, they pretty much single handedly killed the hair bands and changed rock completely

i Dont get the people saying 50cent, 2pac, all the rappers? That isnt music? That is talking about hoes and shows and cars and clothes. Know what i mean? Some rap i like and some just sucks, but rappers arent "bands". Not flamin or nothing im just saying.

How come noone likes fleetwood mac? I didnt like it before until i acutally listened to it. But i would say PINK FLOYD is the SHTUFF that gets you all wired up.
