    Radiohead.

    Arguably the only band from the '90s that had more balls than Pearl Jam. Kid A? Who the fuck saw that one coming?
  • Ever? The Beatles. Of the same era? Caught between Alice in Chains, Soundgarden & Nirvana. Love me some Who, Rolling Stones, Fugazi, Beach Boys, Beastie Boys, the occasional Fat Boyz, Collective Soul, Pink Floyd, Social D, Local H, REM, Aerosmith, Yes, Bloodhound Gang, Neil Young, Johnny Cash, Mother Love Bone, John Lennon, Van Halen, Dream Theater, The Black Keys... Ok. I can't torture your eyes anymore. Lol!

    While PJ sits firmly atop my rankings, my second favourite seems to rotate a bit over the years - top 5 is pretty stable though, and includes The Doors, Beatles, R.E.M. and Foo Fighters.

    The Church -- might even be my favorite, a centerpiece of my life for thirty years.

  • It has changed over the years. Would say the following bands have been second place over the years: Counting Crows, Metallica, Stone Temple Pilots, Powderfinger, Foo Fighters, RHCP, Stereophonics, Radiohead, Coldplay.

    I am forced to say Iron Maiden since I hear it 3-4 hours a day with my soon to be 13 year old son in love with them.

    Other honorable mentions: Audioslave, Foo Fighters, Metallica, Distburbed, Godsmack and I'm currently getting hooked on Volbeat
  • Crap!! I make a list of like 15 2nd favorite bands, and leave out the band i've seen most next to PJ.
