^A thread to state you favorite band, this is not. No way in hell is CoB or Norther the best rock band ever. You could possibly make a case for Slayer, but I could find holes in that argument as well

And yet many others just listed their favorite bands and weren't noted... the whole thing is extremely subjective anyway, I'm just pointing some of my favorite bands like everyone else. Slayer is my favorite band anyway and my nominee, but as for finding holes in that... you can find holes in anything. I can't stand Led Zeppelin, Priest over Maiden any day. It's all a matter of opinion

Has to Led Zeppelin or the Band Of Gypsys.

P.s You should listen to classic rock instead of new rock to make this decision. Just a opinion
