Default Re: Someone make a 16 band poll for greatest British Rock band of all

We just did this like I said like 2 months ago tops (although it was all bands included).

For those interested, Led Zeppelin beat Rolling Stones in the semi's and Beatles crushed Pink Floyd and then Led Zeppelin.

If you are to do it, please leave out the Beatles and Led Zeppelin, if not Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, and perhaps Radiohead.

NEW ORDER.

Do you group Joy Division and New Order together as "Joy Division/New Order" or treat them as seperate entities?

I vote for seperate, even though after Joy Division ended, almost all fans became New Order fans, despite a very different sound.

I would voter for a single "New Order/Joy Division" category, for the selfish reason that they will get a higher score this way.

And they are (almost) the same band - for example, do we split other bands that have changed a member into two categories?

I agree they sound different pre/post Curtis, but they still have three quarters of the same ingredients.

I put them together, IMO. If a band like KMFDM is the same despite having different members every album, JDNO is the same.

If you do that, it makes their case a helluva lot stronger because Closer is amazing.
