The greatest hard rock band currently recording are Queens of the Stone Age.

AFK..being taken to the vet to get neutered.
No, they really aren't.

They're very good.

But not the best.

Of course, Rock 'n' Roll died circa 1960 and the phrase universally refers to a genre of music evolving and coming to prominence between 1940-1960.

You probably just meant 'rock'.

And the answer's still 'no'.

I'd say U2. Who else is playing in packed stadiums here in the U.S. these days?

Good point, but so do Bon Jovi and they are more popular here in the states than U2.:2 cents:

You da man! Great find!!! :thumbsup:

Mick & Keith still tearing it up!!! :bowdown:

I could have done without the Spice Girls appearance, but that rocked the house!!! I love that song! Now I have to go and try to find that on iTunes or Amazon.

P.S. And yet again, this stupid system won't let me rep you either! :mad:

Don't worry. Just spread some rep around other guys.

And, staff can be repped, too, it won't show in open posts, we still get it.

And I say:

It's only repping points, but I like it :1orglaugh

Oh, here's another 'Greatest Rocker' candidate:







... and he never sold out. Like... Volkswagen Golf Pink Floyd or Rolling Stones Edition

Excuse me... Longetivity?? When is the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame going to honor these three great bands? (Before Bon Jovi -- whom I expect will be in very soon before these three make it)....

1. Moody Blues

2. Chicago

3. Yes
 
I'm talking longevity here, Scooter....Foos, though sic, have only been around less than 15 yrs.!
Bon Jovi are now on the level of the U2's, The Eagles, Metallica, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Beatles, Oasis, The Stones, etc. :2 cents:

Kidding me right ?

Bonjovi is ok and all if you have a vagina between your legs

Rock....barely is tuned up pop and while they do have a few catchy tunes they are on about the same musical level as nickelback....another shit band

Agree with you on yes

However Chicago and the moody blues ?

I believe Kiss and Rush both have sold more albums and are still out there doing what bands are supposed to do....like em or not.....they deserve it
 
KRS One is one of the best rappers in the game today.
Like a tree falling in the forest with no one around to hear it?

I believe Kiss ...like em or not...
Probably my all-time favorite band. But I would never claim them to be "The Greatest Rock n' Roll Band In the World." Who you like is subjective. Making that claim is an attempt to state something that is subjective as an undeniable fact. The reality is there are probably just as many people who do not like Bon Jovi or any band as there are who do.

For the EMPEROR!!
No, because its AC-DC with The Stones a close second .... ^ Fact :D
 
Motorhead are the best.

Long live Lemmy :banger:

You can't just name a band to be the greatest band, for there are so many sub-genre within Rock N' Roll.

Kyuss was better than QOTSA.

The greatest hard rock band currently recording is CLUTCH!!!

:cool:


Ah yes, but are Kyuss still recording?...

Clutch is my favourite band, but QOTSA is definitely more accessable which is why I think it goes beyond just my opinion that they are the greatest. They deserve far more credit than they get. They are carrying the torch is hard rock.


Ps. You shouldn't link to that god awful video, it will give people the wrong impression of them.

There's a Ghost of a Chance that Bon Jovi is presently the greatest active Rock 'n Roll Band today because . . .
''Rush is a Canadian rock band formed in August 1968 . . . ''

Need I post more? :hatsoff:

Seriously, it's all good though, Bonjo is talented.
