Top 100 Rock Bands: You Pick 'Em
Wednesday July 5, 2006
As certain as death and taxes is the reality that no two of us will ever agree on the Top (fill in the blank) Classic Rock (fill in the other blank) of all time.
The latest entry on the list of lists of top rock bands comes from the Audio Video Revolution™ Web site. Using a point system based on seven criteria, judges came up with a list topped by Led Zeppelin, Beatles and Pink Floyd, in that order.
Here's the twist. The folks at AVRev.com will let you download their template and create your own list for their consideration. Not exactly a democracy, but a good way to recognize that no two of us are likely to ever agree entirely about who should be on the list and in what order.
best band 30 seconds to mars
AC/DC #1 Band of ALL-TIME!
H.I.M!!!!
WOOOOOOOO
Led Zeppelin is the number 1 Band. Not just my opinion, but also a fact. Oh it’s True!
The Beatles are definetely the best band of all time. They started the British Invasion and changed music forever, and they were in the forefront of the psychedelic movement. And, this was all before Led Zeppelin came around in 1969. Also look what the individual members of the Beatles did after they broke up.
Elvis peresly. i will say no more.
Nirvana is and always will be number 1!!!!!!!
Led Zeppelin baby! They are the greatest band ever! No one can ever beat the because they rocked so hard!
Nirvana? Now, come on, man.
can you say DEF LEPPARD!
the beatles wil own your head off
My Favorite Band is Vendetta Red
But of all Time Foo Fighters
David Grohl is the Man
Rage Against The Machine kicks ass!
iron maiden is the best band in the world
Led Zeppelin is THE best classic rock band of all time and Stairway to Heaven is the best classic rock song of all time.
My favorite is the original Foreigner but Cream has to be the top classic rock band of all time.
QUEEN is the only band that matters! There can be only one!!!
Led Zeppelin all the way….
Beatles are awesome,
as are Floyd, Doors, Who, Moody Blues, Cream, Stones, etc.
ACDC
Kiss
Led Zeppelin
Queen
You other rock bands watch out!
Queen have it all – they will ALWAYS be the best!
My favorite is Deep Purple (1970-1976). You owe it to yourself to go back and listen to “Burn”.
But I think Zeppelin is the best
zeppelin
MetallicA
LED ZEPPELIN FTW!!!!!!
Pink Floyd are far better than any other rock band…Let the others be..Comfortably Numb..!
I think you all are wrong! Aerosmith is the best.
H.I.M of course
Beatles rule of course. Never been anything better before or after.
Led Zeppelin easily remain the greatest rock band in history. Their music is brilliant, untouchable, and enduring. #2-The Beatles, #3-The Stones, #4-Pink Floyd, #5-The Who.

Led Zeppelin rightly remain the standard by which all rock bands are measured. They consisted of what turned out to be, not just four brilliant musicians, but a revolutionary innovative icon at every instrument. Still hard to believe that much talent assembled in one band, yet to fully appreciate Zeppelin you must understand that the magical whole was much greater than the sum of the incredible parts.
the mormon tabernacle choir singing the best of Judas Priest
pearl jam, the greatest of all!
THE BEATLES!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to say The Beatles the best and most influential band of all time HANDS DOWN!
The Beatles and DEEP PURPLE
BOn jovi #1
pink floyd is the best band of all time. no true classic rock fan can say pink floyd isnt badass
Here’s a link to my top 30 classic rock bands of all time, you can also find other great classic rock lists compiled by me.
carlozzi006.googlepages.com/home
System of a down Definatly kills all.
I think Breaking Benjamin,EvE6 and fear factory kick ass of all the bands.they are the best.Also,You all must not forget Elvis Presley but Now,BB,EvE6 and fear factory kick ass of everyone.
Beatles deserve the most respect and are the most succesful band in sales (thats a fact). But I would have to say led Zeppelin is the best band musically. Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Queen, and Black Sabbath are also in the top 5 best bands of all time.
Best rock band ever LED ZEPPELIN and the rest … what rest?
Gorillaz all the way! RoCk on!!!!
Pink Floyd is def by far # 1….in “Classic” rock, but Tool is def the best in modern rock..i don’t care what anyone says, its the truth
Before the Brian Jonestown Massacre, probably Joy Division or Brian Eno. After the Brian Jonestown Massacre’s “Bravery, Repetition, and Noise), nobody yet.
BILLY TALENT
LED ZEPPELIN
GUNS N’ ROSES
OZZY OSBOURNE
RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS
CHIODOS
ALEXISONFIRE
FOO FIGHTERS
ILLSCARLETT
forgot…
SMASHING PUMPKINS
MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE
THE USED
OK WTF is this you all are like OMG Avenged Sevenfold is so hardcore OMG……no I’m sorry but they are far from hardcore. Listen to some Pantera, Damageplan and Cannable Corpse then come and talk to me about Hardcore.
Later
I have no problems with this list as it stands, I agree Led Zeppelin (musically) is the band which all rock bands are measured against, even though they didnt have the commercial success that the Beatles had, their music sounds as fresh today as it did when as a young 17 old i waited for Physical Graffiti to roll of the press and it changed my music likes for ever.
Mika is so the best !!!
I noticed how Jimi Hendrix was posted about, what twice? Now all sorts of Rock bands shaped the title “Rock” and all contributed in their own way. I would have to say Jimi Hendrix, only because his style of playing not only advanced rocks popularity during a time of pop music, but he introduced a little of every type of music and showed people new break throughs in music technology: the wah wah peddle. but the greates rock band depends on your style. just keep rockin and love what you listen to.
THE DOORS ALL THE WAY!!!! JIM MORRISON GREATER SONG WRITER TO EVER LIVE…WE WILL MISS YOU
the doors best band ever
Led Zeppelin as top rock band? Puh lease… Doesn’t make sense that they scored higher than the Beatles and Queen in sales? That’s not true. And best live performance? Queen’s Live Aid performance tops. What a stupid, biased list.
avenged sevenfold most definatly
It’s predictable, but the Beatles have to be #1. It begins and ends with them.
Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, AC/DC and No1 – Guns n Roses!
There are some great bands listed but I think there’s a few missing…
Styx
original REO Speedwagon
Uriah Heep
i agree with person and ivo…..love acdc ….love gnr….love aerosmith…all those bands rock the world……..
YOU MAY NOT LIKE OUR INTERGITY….YEA….WE BIULT THE WORLD OUT OF ANARCHY!!! HEY YEAH!!!
rock ever
Areosmith by far!
NIRVANA!!! Such a timelessly aweso m band
nirvana is number one, everyone in that band is a genius. kurt couldve been on top of the rock world as we know it
The doors are the BEST.
#1 is and always has been the WHO
2 Rolling Stones
3 Beatles
4 Led Zeppelin
5 U2
6 Police
7 Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
8 Steely Dan
9 Van Halen
10Neil Young and Crazyhorse
LED ZEPPLIN ALL THE WAY!!
no question
THE greatest rock band of all time remains the mighty Led Zeppelin. The only other band even in Zep’s league in terms of influence and popularity are The Beatles, but Zep gets the nod because they had the greatest talent ever assembled in one rock band and it is evidenced by their enduringly brilliant music.
The Beatles are number 1.
The Lennon/McCartney partnership is irreplaceable.
Led Zeppelin is phenomenal, a close second to the Beatles, I see them as musically and chronologically taking over the reins after the Beatles, building upon what they had forged. Still waiting for anything to challenge these two greats, however, I doubt they will.
Steppenwolf, no question. John Kay’s voice is timeless and instantly recognizable. Their background instrumentals were fabulous (remember “Straight Shootin’ Woman”??) If ever a group was able to blend rock, jazz, and hard-driving thunder, it was Steppenwolf.
TOOL!!!! Has anyone even heard of them? Gees, at least one of the top 15 greatest rock/metal bands ever!!!!!!
Guns N’ Roses,
Poison,
metallica,
led zeppelin,
Motley crue,
Def leppard
Jim morrison with the doors

Queen is definitely the best:
Record Sales: Have sold at least 300 million records. Best-selling band in England.
Songwriting: The only band in which all members have written a chart-topper. The only band in the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Technical Skill: One of the best guitarists ever. Freddie Mercury usually voted best singer and showman ever.
Queen at Live Aid consistently voted best rock show ever.
The Beatles, in my opinion are by far the best band ever. Under them they’ve got Led Zepplin. Under that they have Pink Floyd. That’s the top 3 bands
1. The Beatles

1. Pink floyd – not hard rock but every song can be listened to and enjoyed… not many bands can say that.
2. Rush – led by the greatest drummer of all time in neil peirt, the most talented musical group of all time falls to number two.
3. Led Zeppelin – Everyone thinks of Stairway to Heaven as the greatest song ever but that is only the last two minutes of it…THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!!!!!!!!!
I am with you conner….Nirvana 4 ever
Where is Tom Petty and the Heart Breakers??? They not only write their own songs they have sold over 50 million records!

Hi,
You know why all these rock groups are reuniting? Well I’ll tell you. I am in the music business and they are reuniting because John Lennon has a secret daughter that will be getting her inheritance from Michael Jackson because he has the Beatle catalogue. Lennon fought hard to see this daughter in 1973 but the mother forbid him to. Thats why he was in a depression. Yoko hid this inheritance but now copyrights have come due she must fork it over. The whole music business will celebrate the fact that the daughter and lennon’s wish will come true. The probably will give her salute on tv and join in name of Lennon their rock idol of all time. It is very touching.
Any list that doesn’t include the Foo Fighters isn’t a complete list. This band somehow flies underneath the modern-day radars… with critical reviews saying things like “not catchy enough toons”, etc… How many songs on “Houses of the Holy” would you say were “catchy”? Hardly a criteria for arguably the BEST band of all time – Zeppelin. In ten years, or twenty, the Foos will be recognized for what they are – an ORIGINAL band that can only be compared to themselves – sorta like LZ.
Guns N’ Roses
Slash kicks ass

MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Vanished is the best band EVER………
These “greatest” lists are ridiculous. There’s no such thing. Just look at the artists listed. Each one based on their own favorites, whatever their age or personal taste. No way in hell can you compare Elvis to Led Zeppelin to the Foo Fighters. Totally separate, distinctive styles. The same goes for the Beatles, Pink Floyd and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Each generation has their “greatest”; be it 1958 or 2008. Can you compare the guitar of Eric Clapton to Jimi Hendrix? No. The voice of Brad Delp to say, Mick Jagger? Who gives a damn who’s greatest, just as long as there’s great new music to be heard.
For Me
1. IRON MAIDEN (definatly)
2. Led Zeppelin
3. Metallica
4. Rush
5. Taking Back Sunday
6. Deep Purple
7. Boston
8. Black Sabbath
9. The Who
10. 30 Seconds To Mars
well im gonna have to say the best band is either tool or fall of troy

N I R V A N A!!!!!!!!!!!11
my top five are”:
5.Metallica
4.Dragonforce
3.Bullet For My Valentine
2.Megadeth
1.Iron Maiden
metallica
AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Guns ‘n’ Roses, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Nirvana, Rise Against, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath, The Who, Green Day, Queen, Pink Floyd, The Doors, Cream, Kiss, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Pearl Jam, Bon Jovi, Lynard Skynard, these are all very good, and there are hundreds of other good bands which i probably didn’t name yet, but these are the ones i can come up with at the moment, and btw i mostly like rock/hard rock/metal bands from like the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s because a lot of bands from 2000 and later aren’t as good as the classics from 1950-1990 etc. and nowadays there mostly are just pop singers and bs like that BUT REMEMBER ROCK FOREVER AND EVERY BAND(MEMBER) FROM THE GOOD OLD ROCK BANDS, BECAUSE THEY WILL BE IN OUR TRUE ROCKER HEARTS FOREVER! AND REST IN PEACE TO ALL OF THE WELL-KNOWN(FAMOUS) ROCKERS OF THE 20TH CENTURY =(!

Whatever happened to the good stuff? Sure, bands like MCR and Death Cab for Cutie are great, but what happened to kickass material like Pink Floyd, Rush, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, and Aerosmith. It’s almost as if the music industry has been going downhill; all the classic rock bands are what can’t be beat.

JONAS BROTHERS! im sorry they just suck ass

whatever heres my list of awesomeness
no one soul once said MUSE this is such a huge let down
yeah…..
1. Zepplin
2. Pink Floyd
3. Smashing Pumpkins
4. Nirvana/beetles
Smashing Pumpkins personal favorite, no contest that bullet with butterfly wings and 1979 are easily considered the best rock songs of the 90s. Like Zepplin and Floyd, the pumpkins music surpasses just music if you really get into the albums and beyond.
.motley crue
.poison

Man, Rammstein is the best band Ever ! , !
If it came down to exact talent and skill… Zeppelin dominates and untouchable. The Beatles were actually horrible if you took away their vocals. But if you asked me to name the number one all round… gosh The Who’s live performances are only touched by Zeppelin and Townsend was a music genius as well as Page but Townsend was complete emotion so i’ve got to say both of them tie for #1
Best band of rock, creator of alternative rock and king of grunge! Nirvana is the best!

Avenged Sevenfold Is The Best Band Ever.!
Escape The Fate !
are the best EVER !
acdc or mettalica is number 1 easyly
acdc or mettalica is number 1 easyly
its gotta be the beatles. number 2= metallica. who else has gone 4 20+ yrs. and is still as good as when they started?
thank u pearljam eddie vedder is a great frontman and if u have ever attented one of there concerts you would understand how great they are
king of rock and roll (not elvis, the real king of rock and roll if it wasn’t for racism…)
Chuck Berry!
I was reading some of the bands posted and they don’t even have half of the track records as Led Zeppelin or the Beatles, Hendrix…Buck Cherry, 30 Seconds to Mars, Avenged Sevenfold, bands like this don’t have enough music to be a top band…I do like their music, all have good songs, but lets see how they are doing in 10+ years.
who would say Avril Lavign…HORRIBLE…she can barely write a song let alone laydown a guitar solo…Jonas Brothers, I think a great rock band has to appeal to more than screaming teenage girls…the Fray write good music, but they definitely don’t have the “rock edge” to them
here are qualifications of a great rock band
1. diversity, not all power chords…gotta have a unique sound…the sound has to hit hard…not to mention most bands played on contempary stations all sound the same
2. songs with meaning
3. ability to lay down a solo…not just playing really fast, but you need rhythm
4. every player has talent
5. a long career, no one-hit wonders, gotta have many top ten songs
6. a great performance…you need to feel the music
7. great singer…screaming isn’t good at all…not to mention all screamers sound basically the same
My vote goes to Led Zeppelin (musical genius), but The Beatles are great also because they appealed to a greater crowd I think
Three Days Grace,Avenged Sevenfold,Slipknot,Hollywood Undead,Disturbed,Korn,My Chemical Romance,Linkin Park,Apocalyptica,Marilyn Manson,Metallica,Breaking Benjamin,Thoery Of A Deadman,Godsmack,Bullet For My Valentine, and Atreyu are the BEST BANDS EVER!!!!!!!! there are a lot more, those are just my favorite bands that i listen to EVERYDAY!!!!!!!!! Definitaly Three Days Grace and Avenged Sevenfold.
Led Zeppelin is the best! It is truely amazing in what they can do, plus… since the lost of John Bonham, they have barely played, so in my opinion, they rock! Go BLACK DOG!!!!
What’re all you people blabbering about? GacktJob, hands down!
foo fighters:D
1.The Beatles
2.Led Zeppelin
3.The WHO
The Rolling Stones of course, 40+ year career and still going. And Wolfmother was only mentioned once here.
Aerosmith is the best and the reason for that is because Joe Perry is an awesome guitarist Steve Tyler can make awesome songs with his crazy singing skills and Tom Hamilton Brad Whitford and Joey Kramer just plain old rock
JONAS BROTHERS !!
THE DOORS!!!!!!!!!
my fav 2 are three days grace and breaking benjamin but AC/DC is and always will be the best no doubt about it
Megadeth
Avenged Sevenfold
Trivium
Slayer
Pantera
Lamb Of God
Sepultura
and
KoRn
Are The Best
um, hollywood undead. the rest suck.
Best band of all time? Most def, without a doubt, VAN HALEN baby! David Lee Roth was like the gasoline and Eddie and Alex Van Halen were like the matchstick and out of the flames came Van Halen. Love to live and live to rock
Best band of all time? Most def, without a doubt, VAN HALEN baby! David Lee Roth was like the gasoline and Eddie and Alex Van Halen were like the matchstick and out of the flames came Van Halen. Love to live and live to rock
DEF LEPPARD!!!! No doubt about it. They rock and kick ass!
Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Who, AC/DC. The Beatle are nasty pop… not even close to Rock.
The Beatles would have to be the ultimate greatest band. No one even comes close. I challenge anyone that does not agree with me to buy an actual Beatles album, and not their greatest hits. I was skeptical at first too, but then I picked up a burned copy of Abbey Road one day and it instantly became my favorite album ever and completely changed how I look at rock music. I went bankrupt buying every other beatles cd, they are that good.
AC/DC is the best band EVER!
were does a7x come in there??????
a.7.x are kings
every band came with its own style and taste…
we cant judge and line em up in any criteria
coz they express themselves with their music
i just can say i love ROCK MUSIC…..
By far the best band in the world is guns n roses!
i love led zeppelin as well and loads more!
H.I.M
NUFF SED
URIAH HEEP, bar None! David Byron on vocals, Mick Box on guitars, Gary Thain on bass, Lee Kerslake on drums, and Ken Hensley on keyboards. Mick Box’s guitar solo on “The Magicians Birthday” is the bomb!
How can you say AC/DC??????? seriously?????
All their songs sound THE SAME. think about it.
Any ways here are just a few of my personal faves
Led Zeppelin
U2
Green Day
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Billy Talent
The Beatles
The Clash
The Jam
The Kinks
Sex Pistols
Muse
Oasis

Creedence Clearater Revival
1. def leppard
2. ac/dc
3. nirvana
4. guns n’ roses
5. led zeppelin
Foo Fighters.. maybe not now, but twenty years down the road they’ll be known as Gods of rock
There are 6 great bands that no one can be like:

Jimi Hendrix Experience
Queen
These are the best I think but their are others that are also amazing:
Creedence Clearwater Revival
The Doors
The Who
Kiss
ACDC
Black Sabbath
Metallica
Nirvana
Iron Maiden
U2
INXS
Cream
The Kinks
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Def Leppard
R.E.M
Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers
The Police
Eagles
Aerosmith
The Beach Boys
OK, I’m going to go out on a limb here and quite possibly be the only one here to say it:
BOB DYLAN
Everyone and Everything else is 2nd to him.
A few other notable mentions are:
Thousand Foot Krutch
Switchfoot
PFR
WhiteHeart
Caedmon’s Call
And let’s certainly not forget:
THE MOODY BLUES
Creedence Clearwater Revival
The Beatles
The Rolling Stones
The Who
Paul McCartney (and Wings, at times)
George Harrison
Tom Petty (and the Heartbreakers)
John Cougar Mellencamp
Journey
REO Speedwagon
Bruce Springsteen
But no one ever has, or ever will be better than the KING of MUSIC, BOB DYLAN. PERIOD. And I can’t believe that no one else has come to this rather obvious conclusion other than myself.
some of you guys seriously gotta be kidding me. i mean QUEEN!? theyre good but definetly not the best. NO ONE seriously NO ONE rocks harder then LED ZEPPELIN!!!!! then AC/DC the rolling stones the who aerosmith Guns n roses van halen U2 jimi hendrix and one probably not in the top 20 but commonly overlooked is Meat Loaf. o and Motley Crue is also kick ass
WOW!!! some of these comments are ridiculous. Led Zeppelin is the best of all time. No doubt about it. Followed by AC/DC, Van Halen(my Favorite), Guns N’ Roses, Poison, the who, Motley Crue, the eagles, Jimi Hendrix, Queen. And another thing how could no one mention Rush. There is no three members group anywhere close to Rush. They probably have the best drummer ever, a great guitarist and Geddy Lee can do anything. Is there anyone who plays more instruments then him.
it has to be black sabbath (ozzy days)
Don’t say ac/dc they have very similair songs
it has to be rush, journey or boston
AC/DC and The Eagles!! The rock..literally!
it’s a toss up guy zeppelin and or floyd are the best bands off all time
1. The Beatles: Literally changed music!
2. The Eagles: Their music made you think.
3. Aerosmith: Never boring.
4. Led Zeppelin: Started with the British blues boom. Then resarted again with Heavy Metal!
i like too many to name just one. my personal fave is incubus, but then again, i dont know much classic rock….im more of a new rock fan, born in good ol 1985! but im dissapointed that no one said sevendust!

The Beatles were hands down the greatest band of all time. They were THE revolutioists of rock. If you want proof, look at all the records they’ve broken. Sir Paul McCartney was knighted because of his influence in music. All the members of the band recieved MBE’s (though John Lennon returned his). Just look at what they did after the band’s breakup. All of them had successful careers, and the remaining members still do. Here’s a list in my opinion.
1.Beatles(THE revolutionists in music)
2.Pink Floyd (Awesome – need I say more)
3.Led Zeppelin (Great rockers)
4.Queen (Good beat)
5.The Eagles (Such new sound – very influential)
6.The Jimi Hendrix Experience (great guitar every song)
7.Elvis Presley or Chuck Berry (Started the good stuff up)
8.The Rolling Stones (Pretty good music, a bit overrated, in my opinion)
9.The Who (Great sound)
10.Aerosmith (Good band with newer music)
well the beatles are always gonna be number 1 and nobody will ever forget bands like AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Queen, Aerosmith, Guns n’ Roses, Kiss, Metallica.. but the best we have in “my generation (im 16)” are Blink 182, Linkin Park, Sum 41, Green Day, Nickelback, Bowling For Soup, Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, the old Fall out Boy- don’t know what the hell happened.., Slipknot… Oh yeah and Jimi Hendrix
Top 10 Bands of All Time:
1. Black Sabbath
2. ACDC
3. Aerosmith

ME & MY FRENZ ALL AGREE ON THIS.. THEY SO ROCK
it all depends upon what you define as greatness…i personally think that if you look at the influence a band has over the genre and future artists of that genre I would say that LED ZEPPELIN has influenced lead guitarist and lead singers and drummers for tons of bands all the way from the garage to your local arena. John Bonham is one of the greatest drummers ever…Robert Plant as a voice and a front man..come on! STP, Pearl Jam, band after band with a great front man took a page from Plant. Don’t get me wrong…Audioslave, STP, Rage Against the Machine, the Foo Fighters, the Who…all great bands and great sounds but the rock world would not be what it is today without ZEPPELIN.
1.Aerosmith
2.Led Zeppelin
3.Queen
4.The Rolling Stones
5.The Doors
6.The Beatles
7.Jimi Hendrix
8.The Who
9.Blue Oyster Cult
10.Alice Cooper
11.Deep Purple
12.Lynyrd Skynyrd
13.Cream
14.The Eagles
15.The Steve Miller Band
16.The Allman Brother’s Band
