I am one of those annoying people , some would call annoracks who passionatly follow a few bands and know pretty much all there is to know about them. I was just wondering what the wonderful people of Fumbbl have to say on the matter of greatest british rock band ever and see if any share my passion for some bands.

darn i didnt realise it limited you to 6 options, for those who would like to put forward another band go for the last optin to show your views. The purpose of this is really only to give me some more people to discuss music with. Smile

ts ts ts, you forgot JETHRO TULL - yeah for me it's the greatest Rock band for the last 38 years, but it's anyway just subjective, there can't be 'the best band' --- but I like Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple as well. Tull rocks Razz !

hm, let's define "Rock"... Wink Maiden and Sabbath are probably more Metal than Rock - fine as well Smile, but not considering the greatest rock band...

Well...Maiden is prolly metal, to be more precise its New Wave of British Heavy Metal....

But Black Sabbath is rock.

And how could I forget about Tull... I even have 10+ cd's with them...

I am torn between my Dark Side (Black Sabbath) and my gentler side (Led Zeppelin)

toss up between the two of those.

rolling stones.... how can you forget! Smile

Its interesting to see (not based on this poll) but the amount of folk who are into their heavy rock/metal on Fumbbl! Is that a common thing for boardgamegeeks? Laughing I like the odd bit of rock, cant say Im a fan of Black Sabbath etc, Im more into stuff from Nick Drake, Elliot Smith and Jeff Buckley Smile

Early Def Leppard is best or the b-sides album to Hysteria, Tull do indeed rock as do Marrillion if you are looking at the softer stuff.

Sex Pistols are in no way shape or form rock, you could argue they where a bunch of untalented losers in the right place at the right time but not rock. The Clash and The Cure where far superior Punk bands.
