Top 5 greatest American bands of all time
When I think of the great all time bands, the vast majority that come to mind, such as the Beatles, the Stones, Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, etc., are all British. Very few American bands come to mind in this league. Who would you say the top 5 greatest are?
Remember- I'm not just talking about your own personal favorites, I'm talking about the how prolific they were and their international popularity. The Doors come to mind, for example. Who would be the top 5 all-time American bands in your opinion?

Assuming we aren't counting solo artists (I.e. elvis, dylan)
The Doors Pearl Jam Guns N' Roses The Ramones Van Halen Also thinking about this list made me realize how pathetic the American popular music scene has been for the past 45 years.

[/ QUOTE ] Very true. That's why I posted this. My list, in no particular order: Guns N Roses Pearl Jam The Doors Metallica The Ramones It is correct that I'm only referring to actual bands; solo artists like Madonna and Dylan don't count.
