    i haven't heard of some of them but i would agree with jakkalope. I also like some Siouxsie & the Banshees stuff but i wouldn't call them the best , don't think you can really have 1 best band for any genre music anyway

    collective soul
    rage against the machine

    pearl jam is more of a jam band.

    true, a lot of alternative bands could also be desricbed and classified in seperate genres.

    Alice In Chains
    or
    Primus

    Alternative? To what?
    I like Snog and DVAR, is that alternative enough?

    I'd personally say Ednaswap cuz I really "get" their songs. I also really like Nirvana, the Pixies, Nymphs

    My all time favourite band is Les Savy Fav. The lyrics and themes in their music just seems to hit me on so many different levels.

    Gang Of Four and the Jesus & Mary Chain are two other absolute favourites as well.
