    • Top 5? Why not just call it the Top 1? They all sound like the same song to me. Singing the same washed out lyrics over the same three chords doesn't make these guys musicians...just sell outs. Can someone give me a tempo change please?!?

    • You're right Sergio, some of those so-called rock tunes (exemption of Daughtry and Linkin Park) are not quite rock enough, my three recommendations for true rock fans would be: Kasabian, Arctic Monkeys and Muse.

    • rock doesn't suck, big record labels suck, the labels sign bands with broadest appeal to sell as much merchandise as possible, and end of the terrible bands end up on Mtv and Vh1 for all to see and hear, they are great bands out there, they just don't recognition from the general public because they aren't presented to us in a very accessible way, the top of charts is the worst place to find music, do show about five awesome bands that no one knows about, like the Hylozoists, Gogol Bordello or Devotchka... pick music that isn't from the U.S.
