Best New Rock Band (since 2000)

[Taverner]

Poll question: Best New Rock Band (since 2000)

[raggedcompany]

1. No contest: White Stripes n/t

[Kire]

2. The Killers

I would vote for the White Stripes, but their first album came out in 1999, so, they are disqualified

[bigwillq]

6. That's a good choice

I have not heard their entire CD and will have to do so before I can say anything more about them.



I voted for the White Stripes

[StopTheMorans]

3. "Hobostank", BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

is that what hobos get after not showering for a few weeks? :evilgrin:

[Placebo]

28. Might as well be.

THEY SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

Hoobastank, that is, not the hobos.

[bobbobbins]

4. gotta go with the mouse

although their pre 2000 stuff is great too

[GOPisEvil]

5. Modest Mouse

[dazeconf]

7. modest mouse and white stripes were around before 2000 nt

[Taverner]

10. True and same with the Hives but

By 2000-era I meant the decade they will be associated. So a loose application of that term. That, however, does not qualify Paul Mccartney as a 2000 act ;)

[tuvor]

26. Or a good Christmas song writer.

If I hear Simply Having a Wonderful Christmastime ONE MORE TIME...

:mad:

[pink-o]

8. Don't flame me!!!

I love Evanescence. Although, since Ben Moody walked out in a snit, I have a bad feeling they're pretty well thru in this incarnation.

[ZoCrowes]

9. Oh god

None of the fucking above BLAH!

And Modest Mouse has been around for almost a decade (and I have disliked them almost as long!)

My would go to My Morning Jacket but their indie albums came out in the late 90s

[dolo amber]

11. TV on the Radio

!!!
M83
Death from Above


Oh, and Franz doesn't suck. ;)

[Lucky Luciano]

12. Wow....I am so out of touch...

Ever since I dropped my first E pill at a rave, I have completely abandoned rock for electronica....I have never even heard of any of those bands - voting is so out of the question...I don't do E anymore - no time - but I am still all about the electronica.

[dolo amber]

14. You may be my favorite DUer

:D

[Lucky Luciano]

33. I guess that means you are all about the electronica as well!

It has gotten really good in L.A. of late...Fatboy Slim yesterday...etc...

[tuvor]

13. Tyrannosaurus Hives is sooooo good.

Even better than Veni Vidi Vicious.

Plus they're Swedish. They're automatically excellent.

[name not needed]

15. The band "Europe" is Swedish.

Did I mention that the above band completely sucks?

[tuvor]

24. Listen, bud...

...we prefer not to talk about them. We just keep them in the basement.

Capice?

:D

[name not needed]

29. We're headed for Venus!

And still we stand tall!

:o

[tuvor]

32. Before googling that, I never knew a Europe lyric.

I feel so sorry for you that you can recall THAT.

[St. Jarvitude]

16. Where are The Shins?

A band which was actually born in the 2000's (though they did exist as Flake Music in the 90's).

Or The Decemberists, Neutral Milk Hotel, Belle and Sebastian, and Iron & Wine?

[bobbobbins]

17. This is a poll for the best bands...not the exact opposite

[ZoCrowes]

18. ZING!

[St. Jarvitude]

22. Oh, do explain.

What kind of music do you like then?

[Taverner]

25. No offense (and I do like the bands you mentioned, but I couldnt think...

of them...) but you gotta admit that was a good Zing...

[St. Jarvitude]

30. 'twas

But an incorrect one nonetheless.

[bobbobbins]

27. well if yours is the bad music...

it shouldn't be to hard to figure out that i like the good music

[Placebo]

19. INTERPOL

They are very good.

[democracy eh]

20. no Strokes?

no Shins?
no Postal Service?
no Zutons?
