Best Alternative Rock band?
 
Who's the best alternative rock band of the year, 2010?

psylocke24 10-07-2010 10:12 PM

Year 2010? I am not updated but for me the best alternative rock band is Incubus.

mermaid 10-09-2010 02:15 PM

none

newjunkaesthetic93 10-20-2010 09:10 PM

umm... does Slayer count??? But seriously, I'd go with:
Brand New
The Strokes
The Killers
Golden Ashes
and umm.....
The Gaslight Anthem

I'll say Brand New, but according to my friends it is Gaslight Anthem.

EVALINE if not 2010 then definitely 2011 will be their year

Menomena's new album was pretty awesome. Alternative might be the vaguest description of a genre ever, though.

Perhaps we can pare it down to something incredibly specific? How about Post-Pretentious? Is that just Tentious?

I haven't listened to anything they've done aside from the split they did with Trophy Scar. Seemd pretty alright, but I haven't taken a chance to hear their other works.

BillCosby 12-05-2010 09:44 PM

slayer

Zuver87 12-06-2010 02:29 PM

motley crue

Draven Grey 12-07-2010 10:26 AM

Some good bands in here...I'll have to stick to Tool.

The Drake 12-07-2010 10:57 AM

Radiohead

TheStefan 12-11-2010 10:55 PM

if indie counts id probably have to say The National. High Violet was just short of a masterpiece imo

mysticrecords 12-14-2010 03:17 AM

Minus the bear

Zebba 12-14-2010 03:49 AM

Radiohead or Weezer

HARBL 12-14-2010 10:26 AM

Arcade Fire

ColdClocks2 12-14-2010 06:50 PM

Minus the Bear or Radiohead

100MonkeysVA 12-14-2010 10:37 PM

I'm not sure if I'd consider it "alternative" but I'd say 100 Monkeys :) Of course I'd say they're best in whatever category

They have a tour coming up in the south - more info is on their site - 100monkeysmusic(dot)com

(fyi, I'm just a fan and not officially with the band in any way)

burtreynolds 12-15-2010 09:46 AM

minus the bear.

i wish i could say tokyo police club cause i love them. but their newest album was pretty disappointing.

dont believe you.

JonChorba 12-15-2010 02:54 PM

Arcade Fire is a good one. Is Kings of Leon too main stream to be considered alternative?

[QUOTE=exredhouseresident;18281995]The Saddest Landscape.[/QUOTE]
