Best Rock Band Ever?

Whats the best Rock act ever?
Ill go with The Wipers, one of the most underrated bands but also one of the most influential once. The guys started grunge waaaaaay before it ever hit the Seattle area.
Just listen to "D-7" and youll know what Im talking about!

 

Never heard of "The Wipers".

Too many good bands for me to come up with the best.

 

Oasis or Metallica, they're my favorite. But it's impossible to say who is the best because music is subjective.

 

Oasis is quite cool!
Yeah, I agree that music is subjective, so I was just interested in what everyone is into.
Thread should be purely IMHO!

 

I don't know what my favorite rock band is but my favorite band is "Modest Mouse"

 

Ummm...hello? How can so many people be so wrong? The best rock band ever is Led Zeppelin. If you disagree, you are wrong How can anyone say that the band responsible for this list of albums

Led Zeppelin II (1969)
Led Zeppelin III (1970)
Led Zeppelin IV (1971)
Houses of the Holy (1973)

Presence (1976)
In Through the Out Door (1979)

Moby Dick (Led Zeppelin II)
The Rain Song (Houses of the Holy)
The Immigrant Song (Led Zeppelin III)
Good Times, Bad Times (Led Zeppelin I)
The Song Remains the Same (Houses of the Holy)

isn't the best rock act ever? No one has driven modern rock more than Led Zeppelin, and frankly no one has made rock music the same sine they split up.

 

mshore, you have no right to tell other people they are wrong when it comes to music or anything really.

 

Led Zeppelin has a lot of great songs, but for a lot of people Led Zeppelin is a old band. They were certainly before my time. IMO the best rock band ever is Rise Against.

 

Best Rock Band Ever? Rush

 

I think its a close one between Led Zeppelin and McFly

 

metallica, queen, kiss, led zepellin, nirvana

 

I love Linkin park

 

Wait, you disagree? You're wrong. See that was a joke, don't take it too seriously. Everyone has an opinion and no one's opinion is right or wrong. If you take this stuff too seriously you'll drive yourself crazy, because on the internet, everyone is wrong. Of course everyone is right to. It is all a matter of who they are talking to.

 

What? No Pink Floyd? No Megadeth? No mention of Alice Cooper?

I see a few of my favorite bands in this thread. Van Halen is another one that comes to mind. Good memories there. But Metallic always wins in my book.

 

LEd Zeppelin is by far the best band ever. Jimmy page, Robert Plant, John Bonham, and john Paul jones are geniouses. too bad bonham died

 

Definitely Zepplin.

But who is your favorite, though slightly obscure artist? I have to go with Ian Hunter. Now if any of you wet behind the ears kiddies out there can name 2 of his songs (which anyone over 30 will know) I will be entirely shocked. And no cheating, no Googling him. I'll give you a hint for one of them, the band that remade this song was involved in a night club tragedy in the not too distant past. Any guesses?

 

Pink Floyd is the best band ever IMO. slightly obscure I go with the New York Dolls and the Boomtown Rats

 

New York Dolls? A man (I think) after my own heart. David Johanson had to be one of the homliest cross dressers in history.

 

I would have to say AC/DC....
