What is the best band ever?

I think Queen is the best band ever because they have made some of the classic songs like we will rock you, we are the champions and another one bites the dust. They also had one of the best guitairists and drummers ever.

As far as the best guitar player/drummer combo goes, I absolutely must mention Led Zeppelin, and they also had a damn good bass player.

This may not seem like an appropriate choice for the best band ever but Green Day along with other bands kept punk alive after bands like the Sex Pistols began to break up. And now punk is back in a big way and although Green Day are realitivly new the still deserve some respect for keeping Punk alive in the states and over here.

In terms of innovation, creativity, technical and artistic brilliance, and longevity as well as inspiring other bands; Black Sabbath.

As for whom I like best, Sadist, Impaled Nazarene, Nine Inch Nails, Bathory, Therion, Marilyn Manson, G.G Allin's bands, Old Man's Child and Hole would go up there. But if you're going for "best", Sabbath.

The Beatles could also be nominated on grounds of innovation and longevity, but bah.

 

I agree with TOOL. Fucking amazing.

It's funny that 3 different people would mention my 3 fave bands: tool, deftones, and incubus. While I absolutely LOVE Incubus and deftones, I think what they've done or how brilliant their music is doesn't quite make them the best band ever.

Queen maybe too. I think Queen was way ahead of their time.

And fuck the beatles. THey were luck. They weren't that innovative, they just happened to fill a gaping void at the right time. If they hadn't, another band would have (the stones).
