Who do you think are the top 3 rock bands right now. I am talking about bands that push the limits musically and lyrically. There are numerous groups out there that continue to put out the same music every album. They just aren't will to push themselves.
OASIS!?!? How exactly do Oasis push any limits, musically or lyrically? They imploded after What's The Story and basically just rehash old ideas with every release!

Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...
... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
1.Kings of Leon
2.Pearl Jam (in this order only because KOL have a newer album out so still excited by the newer songs)
3. none really they are the two bands im listening to currently aside from just your average MTV/VH1/Max music stuff...

I want to breathe/Follow the scene/I want to taste/Everyone I see/I want to run when I'm up high/I want to run into the sea/I only want life.../to be.../I just want to be.../I will feel alive.../as long as I am free.

All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.

Every life is falling down
Brown to black, it's coming back
Dies to be part of the ground
Seed to seedling, root to stem
