I am actually a massive Smashing Pumpkins fan, saw them at Reading a couple of years ago and they stole the show! However, bands like Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Blind Melon had nothing of the impact the aforementioned bands did in the United Kingdom when the whole country went Britpop mad (especially with the Blur vs Oasis battles for no.1!) then again this is a very American centralised poll.
Perhaps we should do this for best bands of the 00s now the decade is over, obvious candidates would be RHCP, Muse, Radiohead again, The Killers.
Bleh, Muse and The Killers? I say we don't do that. The actual good bands are ones nobody's heard of.nagerous wrote:Diddle! Haven't seen you in ages!diddle wrote:nagerous wrote:No Oasis, Blur, Pulp, The Verve options? Brit pop was a huge part of the 1990s!

There are plenty of possible reasons.diddle wrote:Yeah but you say that, if they're so good why havent we heard of them?
You just relax, put on some 45s and your poodle skirt. You can listen to whatever you like.PLAYER57832 wrote:This thread makes me feel old. I know few of these bands (though I have heard their names)
Like? I just don't understand how they can be so good but also relatively unheard of.InkL0sed wrote:There are plenty of possible reasons.diddle wrote:Yeah but you say that, if they're so good why havent we heard of them?

I don't know what's so hard to understand. Popularity isn't the same thing as quality.diddle wrote:Like?

True. Look at the Jonas Bros. Really popular, horrible sounds that they try to pass off as music.InkL0sed wrote:I don't know what's so hard to understand.
