Of actual rock, Zep would probably be mine.

Deftones, altho they (namely Chino) perform in many genres/subgenres. Especially Team Sleep tends to mix it all into one big bowl of deliciousness.

Since no band formed within the last 20 years would even come close to counting in such a discussion, I'd have to go with either Zep or The Beatles later in their career, but I like Floyd, as well.

The Beatles, The Who, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, or Queen.

Also, if Foo Fighters can keep pumping out quality albums for another decade, they will be in the discussion. You also have to give props to Aerosmith, The Clash, The Pixies, and Black Sabbath.

You just listed five of my favorite bands: The Clash, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Queen and The Who. You should have mentioned the Stones too. :P

But in my opinion there is one band that beats all of those, R.E.M. :D

Plain old rock? Probably Rush, with Led Zeppelin as the runner up.

I'm sure I'm omitting something important but immediately my mind focuses on Pink Floyd and The Pixies.

Metallica. They made many forms of rock, including the creation of thrash metal.

Metallica is good and all, but they didn't make thrash, they just got it popular and progressed it some. I'd have to say Diamond Head was pretty much already thrash, and they were a major influence on Metallica. As for the best rock band ever, my vote goes to Led Zeppelin.

Metallica is certainly not the best metal. Even for thrash. Megadeth blows them out of the water in terms of thrash.

For metal, it's either Judas Priest, Iron Maiden or Black Sabbath.

I was playing that on my guitar a while ago, its pretty beautiful but also very complicated since the song has all kinds of riffs.
