    They're probably tied for 11th on everyone's list.

    Seriously, though. I like Coldplay. I have no idea where they would rank on my favorite bands list. Probably not in my top 40, but I do like them.

    You got a problem wit dat?

    Off the top of my head, in no particular order:

    Pearl Jam
    The Tragically Hip
    U2
    Wilco
    R.E.M.
    Heartless Bastards
    Drive-By Truckers
    Headstones
    Queens of the Stone Age
    The Sadies

    So hard to pick only 10. I've got a few dozen honorable mentions I could name as well, but I just don't have the energy right now.
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."
