Forbes has published their list of “The 30 Best Rock Bands Of All Time”.
Contributor Quentin Thane Singer writes, “Developing a definitive “best of all time” list requires a densely thorough thought process, one which must take into account both subjective and objective angles when constructing a list of this type. As it pertains to rock bands, there are several gray areas as far as who or what is even considered to be “rock.” In the case of this list, the bands chosen and considered are from major sub-genres of rock, be it classic rock, blues-rock, hard-rock, heavy metal, alt-rock or punk.
“To keep matters streamlined the bands included in this list are all bands, not individual artists or solo rock acts (i.e. Elton John, Neil Diamond, etc.). With that in mind the main criteria for this list is focused on rock groups whose musical work has remained timeless over the years and is predominantly still relevant within the modern music industry.”
As a tease of the list, the following artists are included: Aerosmith (#30), KISS (#26), Guns N’ Roses (#20), Black Sabbath (#12), and Pink Floyd (#4).
