This isn't your normal 1 through 10 list.

I think bands from every era range from great to shit with each copy cat sucking a little more from the genre till it dies.

For instance Nirvana would be a level 1 *top Level* whereas The Verve  certainly would not be Level 1.

Trick to this game is, for us to place Grunge/nu metal/rock  bands on each rung of the scale and debate who belongs where.

For instance Level 1 would easily be Nirvana,Soundgarden,STP,Pearl Jam, AIC etc etc etc  but would Limp bizkit maintain a number 1 level?


how bout bands like Goo Goo Dolls and Matchbox 20? etc...


Let's say Level 1 is greatest.. Level 4 is the shittiest...  Place the bands on each one and see what we can come up with.


Gonna combine all 90's bands since their were various styles in that decade

Really? Chili Peppers level 4? I could see their earlier stuff but BSSM on has been amazing.

They had one album, and that's it. And even that album is spotty.


I guess you'd call me biased. But I cannot stand RHCP sound, their style, their image, their influence, their past, their present, their future, their whole California weed rock thing... no fucking thank you on anything and everything they've ever done or ever will do.

BUT I respect every single one of them as musicians and artists. That's their thing.

It's just not mine.

Anytime I hear their songs on radio, or rock radio... it literally is like nails on a chalk board for me.

Hootie higher than Creed?


I'm not a big Creed fan, but they're at least on the same level, if not Creed slightly higher.
