i'm not really defending tool here, but at least they play real instruments and are relatively skilled at playing their instruments and making music. i respect them as a band, although i do not personally like them and think they are quite overrated.

I would have to concur with Tool, although I would prolly place them at number 1, you got a helluva singer, a helluva guitarist, and a rediculously insane drummer all rolled up in one. Justin is pretty good as well. Not sure if I would include Daft Punk in top 4 though. Melvins are ok. I would put Floyd in there personally. :D

I couldn't possibly pick just 4 bands...

Just look at my sig, delete the numbers, and add Caifanes and Infected Mushroom to the list. That's the best I can do right now...

Why only 4? And umm, no.

If The Beatles aren't in that list, you Sir, are Daft.

:lol: yeah only 60 million plays on last.fm. They are really quite the underachievers. But seriously I respect them for being technically proficient and original, but they are definitely overrated.

Does last.fm play anything other than 10,000 days? Every time I hear Tool on any radio station they are always playing 10,000 days. It drives me to the brink of insanity. That album is not a good representation of the band. Listen to Aenima or Lateralus, or even Salival. They have a much darker mystique, with much more visual lyrics. I recommend Aenima personally, best album of all time.:D

I don't agree with any of those bands being in the top 100. So to sum up....I disagree.

  • The Cure
  • Placebo

I'll get back to you on the last two.

Well, noting that a 'band' consists of members who a) sing and/or b) play instruments, I will say that they are not a band.

Apples are definitely in the top 4. Oranges, not so much. Based on influence and timelesness alone, apples outpace oranges by a wide margin.
