It's basically what it says in the title! You've seen this threads for every other thing but music and I think it's time we got cracking on this.
The gist of it is this;
From every person I would a nomination of your favourite band or artist from each decade. Anything that has released a record.
So this is how it goes;
60s
The Beatles
Jimi Hendrix Experience
70s
Led Zeppelin
The Who
T-rex
Black Sabbath
Alice Cooper
Queen
Rush
Fleetwood Mac
the Kinks
Pink Floyd
The Ramones
Saxon
The Doors
The Clash
Creedance Clearwater Revival
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Rolling Stones
80s
Metallica
The Pixies
Iron Maiden
Guns n Roses
AC/DC
Megadeath
Billy Idol
The Cure
Sonic Youth
Dire Straits
The Jam
The Police
The Smiths
Motley Crue
U2
90s
Fugazi
Oasis
No Doubt
Faith No More
Smashing Pumpkins
Sublime
Pearl Jam
RHCP
Pantera
Green Day
Slayer
Nirvana
Counting Crows
Radiohead
Dinosaur Jr
Alice in Chains
Screaming Trees
00s
The Strokes
Pink
Five Finger Death Punch
The Offspring
Linkin Park
Lost Prophets
The Killers
The White Stripes
Incubus
Deftones
Jimmy Eat World
Foo Fighters
Be Your Own Pet
Queens of the Stone Age
Shinedown
Disturbed :D:D
After this, I will randomly put an assortment of one band/artist from each decade into a group of FOUR. From that, you can nominate your top artist from each group, regardless of decade. There will be no duplicates... If there aren't enough 60s bands then they will be replaced with a 00s band, or any other band that there are too many of in a particular decade.
And then after that, much like the World Cup, each of the top two from every group will go through to face off against the others from each group, until there is a final.
It truly is the World Cup of Music.
You have two weeks to reply your nominations into this topic at 23:59 on the 1st of April, or until I deem the thread to be dead.
Remember, NO REPEATS because that will disrupt the order.
60s.. Beatles
70s..Led Zepplin
80s.. Metallica
90s.. Sublime
70s - The Who
80s - Pixies
90s - Pearl Jam
00s - The Strokes
Dammit Gary you got in there with Led Zep before me. The Who... a close second me thinks
Actually scrap that they were 60s
Seeing as Rob called me out on it, I do want to explain why I ignored the 2000s and added the 60s...don't have a 00s band I love, and for a thread like this felt the Beatles needed to be mentioned.
You can chose the Who if you want! Quadrophenia was '73
EDIT:
I'm thinking chosing four different decades shouldn't matter too much, so if you wanna do 50s 60s, 90s, 00s, go for it. It's the same decades being in the same group I'm trying to avoid... So that will give me the option to mix up the groups as much as possible.
Right! Switched back to The Who so ;D
70s - T-Rex
80s - Iron Maiden
90s - Red Hot Chilli Peppers
00s - Pink

The Killers. NICE!! My pleasure. Brandon Flowers is my ultimate man (apart from Ian.. Obviously!)
I don't understand why you're doing this, most of the people here have awful taste in music. In the end, Disturbed will win or some shitty metal band of the like. Nevertheless...

80s - Sonic Youth
90s - Radiohead
00s - The White Stripes
60s - Jimi Hendrix Experience

00s - Incubus
70s: The Ramones
80s: Dire Straits
90s: Faith No More
00s: Deftones
Only four please Franchise.
And Tim, you are a music mod here, please keep your shitty degrading posts and opinions to yourself. I am trying to maximise the amount of people posting here and you are not helping one little bit.

Now that's what I'm talking about, excellent choices my friend. Also, MDK, top top choices. Most of my first choice picks have been taken, so I'll go for some of my 'other' favourite stuff.
70s: Saxon
80s: The Jam
90s: No Doubt
00s: Jimmy Eat World
70's - The Doors (65-72)
80's - The Police (77-85)
90's - Oasis (91-09)
00's - Foo Fighers (94-Present)
If those picks aren't alright, I can change them. Just gone for which year I think they should be in
70s The Clash
80s Minor Threat
90s Fugazi
00s Be Your Own Pet
Changed my 80s pick, since the Pixies were already taken. I didn't see them first time round.

60s - Jimi Hendrix Experience
70s - Pink Floyd
80s - Metallica X
90s - Smashing Pumpkins
00s - Incubus
Metallica was already picked so that should cancel out Franchises 5th pick. Should be fine than Rob
Connor- Pixies were already picked
rob maybe you can modify the original post, to reflect those already chosen.
Good idea bro
Bah, didn't even see Metallica in the first post. Oh well.
Yeah Metallica was tyhe first band that came to my head too. I had so many i could have chosen for this. But thankfully most have been chosen by other people. Only a few that haven't. And lets face it, if only i'd have chosen them they aint gonna win anyway :)

90's Screaming Trees

My bad, in the chaos of uni and finding a way for my useless internet connection to work for more than five minutes I forgot about this.

Okay well, going to get groups done tomorrow.
