A three-way coin toss...or something.

Meh. I'm watching CSI so I've just had some of 'Who are you?' and 'Won't get fooled again'.

Whooo are you? Who, who, who who? :D Aaaah I really wanna know!

BTW: Yay for using my idea!

It might be fun to see how many people get it wrong.

Is that like, a band, dude? :D

Im gonna have to say The Beatles. Followed by either The Who, The Stones, or Led Zeppelin.

I mean The Beatles have something for everyone. From Elanor Rigby, to Helter Skelter, to Nowhere Man, to Girl The Beatles are F***ing awesome! And they are still out there! What with Paul McCartney doing the best frikken halftime show ever! And Ringo, well, doing his own thing..

Bon Jovi

Shouldn't the question be Who's Best?

Perhaps, were it a question and not a statement.

Actually, my favourite band is probably Black Sabbath.

I hope you got the joke and posted anyway. BTW, Megadeth covered Paranoid at double speed last night and actually added a good solo :D

Double speed? That sounds...odd.

I got the joke. That's why I included the adverb "actually" at the start of my statement.

Excellent (though incomplete) list except for the bold italic ones, to whom I say: NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!! Rage Against the Machine is the most hypocritical, uncreative, shit-shack band I've heard in a while. They're terrible! Jimi Hendrix (note correct spelling), while not as bad, is pretty boring and uncreative as well.

As to The Who THEY ARE FUCKIN' AWESOME. I have the following albums:
It's Hard
It's Hard (Remastered)
My Generation: The Very Best of the Who
The Who at Dallas
Tommy

I know it's not a complete collection, but it's enough for me to be a huge fan. BTW Do not get It's Hard - it's a terrible album IMHO.

U2
the Dandy Warhols
Bob Marley and the Wailers
Daft Punk
Wu-Tang Clan
Miles Davis
Jimmy Hendrix
Sting/the Police

Just to name a few.

SYSTEM OF A DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that's all i had to say.

Is that a YEEEAAH! of agreement or agony or sarcasm? (Sorry I'm even worse at social cues on the Internet than real life :D )

The Who of course

You criticised Rage. Admittedly, some of it is poo, but for criticising Self titled and Battle for Los Angeles, I shall headbutt you once more.

*headbutts*

Jimi Hendrix ... is pretty boring and uncreative as well.
Seriously, wtf? Hendrix changed A LOT of things in rock music. Things were definitely different after him. And boring? He changed his styles in his career, and the day he died was the day he had planned to meet with Miles Davis to discuss making an album together.

I would have to say Burzum (varg Vikerness).

I have a feeling that I am still missing some thing about this thread.

Really, they are not. Sorry but I never liked them that much.

Jane's Addiction
King's X
Primus (before the Brown album)
Phish
Chic Corea's Ecclectic Electric Band
Budgie
Tool
Frank Zappa
Just to name a few.

Modest Mouse, Sublime, The Velvet Underground.

Anti-Flag
Senses Fail
Boys Night Out
NOFX
Greenday
My Chemical Romance

:D

My favourite band changes quite often, but at the moment I would go for The Flaming Lips. I'm listening to "Thank you Jack White (for the fiber optic Jesus that you gave me)" as I write this.

16 now, and by the way Jolt is sucking ass this afternoon.

Audioslave
Rammsteain
Blur
Lacuna Coil
Disturbed
Godsmack
Coldplay
Skindred
Slipknot
U2

And I wouldn't exactly call these people bands, but they still make music.
Hans Zimmer
Estaban
Just about any classical but especially the three Germanic dudes, Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart. Oh and Vaughn Williams.

So basically, if its not rap or hip hop... I like it.

16 now, and by the way Jolt is sucking ass this afternoon.
I know. I'm already gone.

It's a toss-up between:The Doors, AC/DC, Pearl Jam, and Led Zeppelin.

All I could think of right now.

Well, I'll go with the WHO, since the thread just told me to.
It said The "WHO is your favorite band!!!!, and i thought, yeah, why not?

The Who is not my favorite band. To quote Kurt Cobain, singer of who is my favorite band: "I hope I die before I turn into Pete Townshend."

My favourite band changes quite often, but at the moment I would go for The Flaming Lips. I'm listening to "Thank you Jack White (for the fiber optic Jesus that you gave me)" as I write this.
Is it just me, or are the Flaming Lips (along with Wilco) getting worse in proportion to how much the critics like them?

4-way tie:

Helloween
Gamma Ray
Nightwish
Iron Maiden
