Are the pumpkins your favorite band?
 

?

And if they are not #1 but close, say who is ahead of them. Or just give your top 3-5 bands whatever.




As for me, I've always had my bands like this:

1) Led Zep
2) Pink Floyd
3) Radiohead
4) Smashing Pumpkins

but they were all really close. The last month, though, is making it more like:

1) Smashing Pumpkins
2) Led Zep
3) Radiohead
4) pink floyd

here is my last.fm: http://www.last.fm/user/beniwins/

pumpkins are the reason i ever picked up an axe, i dont like to rate my artists anymore, i think the only guy i can pick as number one in my mind is hendrix, he is the birth of anything rock in my mind.

So, ill just list my five most favorite bands in no particular order, they all compete with hendrix for the top spot, they're all in my number 1 spot really, the amount of time i spend listening to them changes weekly

Hendrix, Pumpkins, Doors, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Ray Lamontagne as of late too, guy has some amazing lyrics and voice. I think he'd be a little too folk for all these "hardcore" guys though :P

Some honorable mentions would be pantera, black sabbath, rolling stones, ect

Yeah Black Sabbath, The Doors, and Hendrix are all up there for me too.

metallica and tool come in at 5 and 6 i would say

Smashing Pumpkins
Piano Magic
Placebo
Pixies
Slowdive

These are tough to put in order and may be in a different order tomorrow.

Top Se7en

Smashing Pumpkins
the Cure
the Smiths
the Stone Roses
Fulflej
Sons of Godzilla
Elvis Presley

Yay for DD!!!

my top 3:
SP
The Decemberists
The Dresden Dolls

Favorite? yes.
The most important/influencial/best/yadayadayada band? no.

1. The Smashing Pumpkins
2. Jeff Buckley
3. Wilco
4. Radiohead
5. The Pixies
6. Nine Inch Nails

Smiths and Flaming Lips are definately top notch.

I don't think anyone should say LZ, Hendrix, Floyd, or the Beatles anymore. If you DON'T like those bands then you should probably jump in a fire somewhere.

sp are my faves by far

1 smashing pumpkins
2 marilyn manson
3 gorillaz
4 coal chamber
5 static-x

1. sp
2. placebo
3. garbage
4. silverchair
5. coldplay

Wilco is my new favorite Chicago band. The new album is incredible, and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is better than anything Billy will ever do from this point on.

The Smashing Pumpkins is now the Beach Boys of alternative rock. Way to go, fucktard.

smashing pumpkins
bloc party
arcade fire
wilco
muse
stars
the mountain goats
third eye blind

Wilco are damn awesome I agree. Billy's new album will have to be spectacular to beat sky blue sky for album of the year

My "top three" used to be SP, Beatles, and Neil Young, but with the new album Wilco has climbed into the list as well. No order.

Doesn't "Sky Blue Sky" have an honesty this new Pumpkins shit seems to lack? I just doubt he's sincere about anything... he's suddenly political after saying publicly that he doesn't vote? He suddenly goes back to rock after doing everything but for seven years? I'm just not buying it, even though I want to...

sky blue sky fucking sucks

Uhhh...Sky Blue Sky wasn't that great guys.

S-ing Wilco's D-s a little too hard right now.

1. Kelly Clarkson
2. Reuben Studdard
3. Clay Aiken
4. Fantasia Barino
5. Carrie Underwood
6. Smashing Pumpkins

What TuralyonW3, no Taylor Hicks?

Wilco does not rank with the greatest bands of all time. Give me a freaking break.

btw I like them and saw them live. I'm not some hater.

1. Led Zep
2. Pumpkins
3. Bjork
4. Hendrix
5. Bowie

I'm so boring
