The best band of the past 15 years without question is....

[The Notorious LOL]

Radiohead. Easily. It doesnt even need to be debated.

[DipDipDive]

You won't hear any argument from me. Radiohead is one of those immortal bands whose music will still manage to be relevant decades from now.

[Kid Presentable]

I'd agree, but the justification above also applies to the Beastie Boys. Do you mean a band who started out in the past 15 years?

[The Notorious LOL]

yeah.

[Documad]

I've never seen them live, so I can't judge.

I don't think I'll ever entirely get it though.

[Mcmac]

radio head is shit

its all that emo rock shit

[Mr Films]

their live show is fucking hypnotizing.

Kid A also stands as the only album I own that I only listen to as a complete whole.

I never skip tracks- if it goes on it means I'm in it for the long haul.

I don't own pablo honey, word on the street is it aint so great.

[Kid Presentable]

yeah.

fair enough.

[mickill]

Nah.

They're really good, though.

[Mr Films]

Nah.

They're really good, though.

I know what you're thinking and no, B2K doesn't count as a band.

[Ferdinand_2]

Supergrass (y)

[grooveboy]

rage against machine without a doubt..

too bad they broke up

[Calimero jr.]

One of the best, without doubt. Not THE BEST anyway :)

[DipDipDive]

radio head is shit

No. But thanks for playing.

[adam_f]

I'd say Wu-Tang if we're talking about all bands rather than ones who just play instruments.

[cosmo105]

wayyyy overrated.

radiohead's by far the highest quality.

[abcdefz]

Radiohead. Easily. It doesnt even need to be debated.


They're pretty good, but not the best that I've heard.

[cosmo105]

They're pretty good, but not the best that I've heard.
out of the last 15 years, though?

[Parkey]

Radiohead are bloody good live, I particularly remember their 1997 Glastonbury performance. It was an honour to be in the crowd. Best band though? No chance!

[pshabi]

I LOVE how people say they're not the best band of the last 15 years, but then don't say who is.

Every fucker who said "no" did the same thing.

Who is then?

[Parkey]

I LOVE how people say they're not the best band of the last 15 years, but then don't say who is.

Why should there be one? I certainly couldn't say Boards of Canada were any better than Radiohead, or Radiohead any better than the Beastie Boys etc.

If we're talking trad-guitar stadium band who flirted with electronica then dissapeared up their own arses as they went creative tail-chasing, then yes; Radiohead are the best.

[DroppinScience]

Hmmmm... 4 or 5 years ago, I would've agreed. But there are better.

Nirvana would certainly be better than Radiohead, in my mind.

Right now, I would say Ryan Adams is the best thing to emerge out of the last 15 years...

[cosmo105]

hahahahahahaha





hahahahahahahahahaha

[DroppinScience]

hahahahahahaha





hahahahahahahahahaha

That's right. Ryan Adams, bitch. :cool:

[SobaViolence]

ryan adams is a fucking tool.


radiohead has been the best thing happening in music for a long time and from 'the bends' on, its been all masterpieces.

fact.

[abcdefz]

out of the last 15 years, though?


Nope.

They'd be in the top twenty, for sure.

I don't think there's a clear, no-argument-about-it winner; I do think that Radiohead's stuff -- fascinating as it is -- lacks a certain warmth that I would require of "best" anything.

Without giving it much thought at all, I'd put the White Stripes above Radiohead in a heartbeat. I don't think half the people on this board realize how good the Stripes really are. They've already got three albums for the ages; not bad at all.

And if we were talking about artists and not just bands, Brad Mehldau would get a nod.

[dave790]

Radiohead. Easily. It doesnt even need to be debated.

yet you've started a thread on the matter :rolleyes:

[DroppinScience]

ryan adams is a fucking tool.

No other artist can release 3 albums in one year alone and STILL be consistent.

Few artists can ever pull that off. He practically writes a new song every 5 minutes and if you've heard his unreleased stuff (he's got enough in the vaults to put out 6 albums every year, practically), it is of equal quality.

He's amazing for being prolific and prolifically good. Deal with it.

Without giving it much thought at all, I'd put the White Stripes above Radiohead in a heartbeat. I don't think half the people on this board realize how good the Stripes really are. They've already got three albums for the ages; not bad at all.

The White Stripes are high up there, for sure.

I think most naysayers just don't like them because they're reacting to the hype. If they actually took a listen, they'd know it's pretty fucking deserved.

For godsake, Jack White produced a fantastic album for Loretta Lynn. The guy is talent and integrity through and through.

I was thinking the same thing: the negative criticism seems more reactive than observant.

Esquire or somebody just wrote a review ho-humming the new album because it sounded exactly like Elephant. Amazing to me, since the album struck me immediately as pretty weird and very different.

[DroppinScience]

It's clear the scribe for Esquire did not even listen to "Get Behind Me Satan." Once "Blue Orchid" ended (which is actually quite a different tune for TWS stylistically anyway), the rest of the album is about as different from "Elephant," "White Blood Cells," "De Stijl," and their self-titled debut as it can get.

I guess they'd prefer to listen to some more Black Eyed Peas, right? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[SobaViolence]

nope.


Radiohead beat White stripes and Ryan Adams combined.

sorry kids.

[ToucanSpam]

I'm going to nominate Green Day. I am very sure there will be 4 or 5 little drones who will argue with me.

[DroppinScience]

nope.


Radiohead beat White stripes and Ryan Adams combined.

sorry kids.

Not saying Radiohead aren't awesome, but can you seriously listen to ALL of "Amnesiac"? "Kid A" was brilliance, but overall "Amnesiac" really was a bunch of leftovers from "Kid A."

"Hail To The Thief" didn't really grab me (to be fair, I may need to listen to it more).

"Pablo Honey" has its moments, but was too derivative.

"The Bends," "OK Computer" and "Kid A" stand as their only perfect albums to date.

I can't really point out the same "flaws" in the back catalogues of Adams OR The White Stripes as I can in Radiohead.

[DroppinScience]

I'm going to nominate Green Day. I am very sure there will be 4 or 5 little drones who will argue with me.

They'd make it onto a Top 50 list perhaps

Ryan Adams is fairly decent at his very best.

Why don't you just tell us why you think that Green Day is the best band to emerge from the last 15 years instead of this persecution complex you got going on. ;)

[b-grrrlie]

I <3 (http://img362.imageshack.us/img362/4770/bild308hz.jpg) Radiohead

[ToucanSpam]

Why don't you just tell us why you think that Green Day is the best band to emerge from the last 15 years instead of this persecution complex you got going on. ;)

Well, alright.

They know how to sell records. Look at the numbers of the past 15 years, and I will bet my bottom dollar Green Day have out sold a huge amount of the competition in their genre. They have put out some very very good albums, including American Idiot, that have gone platinum two or three times over. They know how to market well and they are a solid sell.

Whether you can admit it or not, they have put out some fantastic songs. Yes, they are simple as hell, but who ever said a good song has to have all the bells and whistles? They can play their own respective instruments well. None of them particularly stand out as fantasic musicians, but collectively they have global noteriety as a symbol of the 90's punk thing.

Is that good?

[ToucanSpam]

Selling lots of records and having big tours means nothing. In the end, it's about the content of the music and how well it is. I'm sad to say that Green Day does not come to mind when I think of well put together music.



Yeah, he said that. *shakes head*

Content of music? How about explaining that. I respect your opinion whether you respect mine or not, but I would rather try to understand where you are coming from rather than just say

"What you said means nothing. What I say is what's important. You're wrong."


I'm sure there isn't a more embarassed person than Billy Joe that he siad that.

amnesiac is probably my favourite album. and no one here ever even suggested pablo honey was great.

the fact is that they have 3 perfect albums, acording to you. i dare you to say that about those whites or that jackass ryan. if you can, you're lying.

I can respect that.

[ToucanSpam]

Can you justify your responces though?

It's not that I dont respect your opinions, I would rather just hear a reasoning.

[wavin_goodbye]

i'm going to say pearl jam. soundgarden if they hadn't broken up.

reason being:

incredible live show - they're the kind of live band that has a cult-ish following.. long sets.. they change the setlists every night... and press official bootlegs too

incredibly diverse albums... right after ten they switched up completely.. their albums all have something really special to them. several are criminally underrated (no code, yield) i'm guessing that most of the flaming that i will get is due to the fact that people base their opinion on Ten (alive, black, evenflow, jeremy etc) .. a great album.. but does not represent their whole career

dedicated to the fans... one of the best fan clubs out there.. that guarantees good seats to it's members.. issues christmas vinyl.. and not too expensive either

all around great rockin music.

[The Notorious LOL]

I do like pearl jam but Im gonna have to disagree.

fuck I mean every band that came out around that time ended up on a major label because they were putting out that melodramatic angsty teenage mid 90s bullshit....radiohead, pearl jam, and stp for example...but they all went different directions after their debut album.

ten was like frat kid music. Anything after was really good. Nowadays they're pretty much an NPR band that hangs out with neil young and other old farts. Have little interest in anything they did post yield.

[wavin_goodbye]

haha.. respectable (y)

[The Notorious LOL]

as a band I really respect the way pearl jam conducts themselves though. They show appreciation for their fans and make high quality bootlegs of their shows available after the set is done. I think its cool.

[Auton]

fact: Radiohead best band of the last 15 years.
fact: Green Day suck.
fact:ToucanSpam is a sensitive baby with poor musical taste.

i'm glad this thread has sorted this all out for everyone.

summed it up pretty darn well (y)

radiohead is just flat-out amazing

[CrankItUp!]

Butch Walker who has long gone solo from his old band Marvelous 3 - is well worth checking out. The guy writes his own tunes and is an awesome singer. (y)

[yeahwho]

Pearl Jam is really generous, in more ways than I can mention on this thread. One thing they did was they bought up a few hundred acres of forest so it wouldn't be developed into crackerbox houses. In an area I still visit at least 3-4 times a year.

They opened for the Rolling Stones, toured with the Ramones and hangout at local haunts w/o any eminence or worry of being recognized, I've seen Eddie stay up till dawn in the streets of Seattle just to thank fans after a show.

Mike McCready is the most underrated guitarist alive today.

The cover of X's "New World" with actor Tim Robbins during the moveon.org concerts was brilliant.

I'm from Seattle, so local boys get the nod.

Seen both live, Jam goes crazy.

[mickill]

hey guess what shut up you're all wrong if you disagree.


Ryan Adams is fairly decent at his very best.


The White Stripes? Christ...they've made a collective 40 good songs, the rest is a bunch of self indulgent throwback shit that rock critics jerk off over.

Ryan Adams is pretty weak. He was good with Whiskeytown. On his own, he's more just a hybrid of various groundbreaking artists of the last 30 years. He goes from being Elton John to Paul Westerberg to Morrisey to Van Morrison. It gets tiring.

I prefer The White Stripes to Radiohead. And 40 songs is a pretty good ratio, regardless of how accurate that figure is or isn't.

Radiohead display two emotions in their music; sad and upset. Their sound is pretty consistently depressing and gloomy, if you think about it. If they were to branch out a bit, they might actually deserve that ridiculous amount of praise they get.

I'm with Parkey, though. Who says there can only be one, anyway?

What about Ween? Had Public Enemy formed in '90, I'd say them.

[Brass_Munkey]

I know not many people on this board like Red Hot Chili Peppers, but they at least have to be considered...

They're way better than Green Day at least...

[Documad]

ten was like frat kid music. Anything after was really good. Nowadays they're pretty much an NPR band that hangs out with neil young and other old farts.
You say that as if there is something wrong with it. :confused:

[EN[i]GMA]

Is that good?

Green Day sucks.

[cosmo105]

also: since when has record sales directly reflected an artist's/band's true worth? teen pop shit is extremely well-marketed and advertised and is always at the top of the record sales charts. does that mean that it's good music? and being a symbol of something means you make good music? what?

green day = product. radiohead = music.

[mickill]

Green Day is fine. I don't buy into all the anti-hype. They're not a manufactured pop group, they've been doing their thing for a long ass time. Their first two albums were mad low budget, but still decent. But they're nowhere near being the best band of the last 15 years, and they don't really belong in this conversation.

[The Notorious LOL]

nah for as much as one could hate on green day, its kind of pointless. Like mickill said they werent a manufactured group. My brother had Kerplunk about a year before Dookie came out, which actually got semi popular based solely off word of mouth. I could come up with 10-15 good Green Day tracks easily. Overall most of their stuff is mehhh but they arent a bad band.

[Kid Presentable]

I like Radiohead, but sometimes if I'm writing, Thom Yorke can sound a bit like a crying baby. It makes me want to smash my computer.

I like the Pistols too, but they were always in it for the money. The whole punk scene and ethos sort of just cropped up around them. In that vein, Billy Joe Armstrong may be sort of right. They always represented something, but I don't think they ever gave a clear indication what it was. They were like the first Pop Idols in a way.

Nirvana was 5 years of aight.

Probably Radiohead.

[icy manipulator]

rage against machine without a doubt..

i dont like radiohead but i can see how alot of ppl like them

[icy manipulator]

tool are also one of the great bands to come out of the last 15 years. you cant say that they aren't worth a mention

[DroppinScience]

the fact is that they have 3 perfect albums, acording to you. i dare you to say that about those whites or that jackass ryan. if you can, you're lying.

I think all 5 White Stripes albums are perfect. PERFECT. Ryan Adams, especially for someone who has released so much in so little time, has great consistency. I can't wait for his other two albums this year...

Radiohead just need to really impress me whenever they come out with their next album. They've been on autopilot lately.

[The Notorious LOL]

"Get Behind Me Satan" or whatever the fuck its called was barely worth the 40 megs of space it consumed on my hard drive for the half dozen listens I gave it before realizing what a peice of dog shit it truely is.

[Sandinista!]

No one of note has arisen in these past 15 years of musical shit.

[cosmo105]

Green Day is fine. I don't buy into all the anti-hype. They're not a manufactured pop group, they've been doing their thing for a long ass time. Their first two albums were mad low budget, but still decent.
they didn't start out that way, but they are now. dude, look at their cheesy-ass action figures.

[DroppinScience]

I know not many people on this board like Red Hot Chili Peppers, but they at least have to be considered...

They're way better than Green Day at least...

Well, Red Hot Chili Peppers has been making music since 1984, so I don't think they'd qualify as "best thing of the last 15 years" when they emerged 20 years ago.

Either way, I think they're great. I think what you meant by people not liking them on this board was pretty much just Cosmo. She points out her disgust for RHCP in every second post. ;)

[wavin_goodbye]

no there are definitely a lot more people that dislike them.. i'm neutral - i love the band, but i dislike kiedis

[Trimm Trabb]

I think that half of By The Way is brilliant. It's poppish, yeah, but that's not necessarily a crime or anything. Californication is not the best album they've released since Blood Sugar....

[Parkey]

I have come to the conclusion that I must be missing something with RHCP. To these ears, they are fooking crap.

[Calimero jr.]

I'd say Primus, they have their own unique style. Les Claypool is the man (y)

i knew it! and no, Absolution kicks ass, its incredible, what are you talking about. Origin of Symmetry is better though, its more complex, Absolution is just a bit easier to hear. Showbiz, their first one, 3rd one in line.

im telling you though, listen to OOS, especially Bliss, Plug in Baby,Space Dementia, Citizen Erased and Megalomania...eh...do it or theyll kill me...seriosly though.

when an argument is about defending personal musical tastes, going back and forth gets boring quick, like i said, its ok if we all disagree.

radiohead to me is a great band, theyre awesome, i have pablohoney,the bends and ok compuer (coming soon:kid A) ...but....Muse is on a different level to me. if youre telling me youve listened to more than just one Muse album, and more than just one Radiohead album, then, first of all, your opinion is better based, and second of all, it no doubtedly proves that Muse is not your type of band...which is fine, ofcourse.



by the way, you all suck.
oh shit! i mean..

nono....you all suck, yea.

i just read what i put and it was pretty harsh lol.anyway, yeh ive heard all radioheads albums and muse's first two, but if you prefer muse-agree to disagree :)

I think you would have to put the nine inch nails up there to. Their videos are great as well. The bassline on the song 'only' off the newest album is fucking great
