What does best mean? Sales? Tour gross? Fans?

Most non guitar players would probably say Foo Fighters. QOTSA has a lot of fans, for me I think they're ok. Don't love them but don't hate them.

I guess a lot of people are going to think Avenged Sevenfold will be the top rock band this week with their new release.
 
First band that came to mind when I read the title was - in fact - QOTSA.

Outside of this? AIC is still rockin' my world regularly.
 
Strictly "rock" rather than metal? I would have to say Steven Wilson.

IDK, I went 2:30 minutes in and just did not dig that. Bad tone, bad vocals. At least to me. If that's the best then I have to agree with all the old farts who say there is no good music coming out today.

Really been into The Pretty Reckless and In This Moment recently. But as long as Ac/Dc and EVH are still touring hard to put QotSA up there in that league.

Oh no please, not a "best band" debate :jerkit:



:lame:

Yep, this thread has FAIL written all over it.


All in good fun. I figured since Reza posted it the must play Diezels :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL:
 
I love the new QOTSA. They have an original sound and very good song writing IMHO.

My favorite modern band right now is these guys.

 
Winery dogs FTW! These guys if they stay together could really do things.
 
"On behalf of the entire band, I'd like to thank you for acknowledging us as THE BEST ROCK BAND IN THE WORLD. It's really quite exhilarating to wake up every morning knowing we're quite literally THE BEST ROCK BAND IN THE WORLD. It's been a hell of a journey to get here, but we've stayed the course, checked-off all of the requirements one-by-one, and by jove we've become THE BEST ROCK BAND IN THE WORLD. Really... it's a gas to be able to look down from this lofty summit and see all of the bands below our supreme vantage point. It just goes to show you that hard work and persistence eventually pays off and you find that you're quite simply the PINNACLE of rock music. And I don't mind telling you that I feel a bit heady just knowing that no other band is as good as we are. So I'll proudly accept this gold medal in the field of rock music and say that I really wish all of you could know how it feels to look-down from this perch on-high. But alas, there can only be ONE BEST ROCK BAND IN THE WORLD. And we're it. So piss off!" :lol: :LOL:



Or to put it more shortly [and less sarcasically]... there is NO real "best" anything in music. One man's best band, player, gear, etc... is another's worst.

But hey... I like QOTSA and think they're interesting and bring some cool things to the table. ;)
 
why do you guys think there are not many good rock bands that are mainstream?
