I do. But I won't go into it because in my opinion...

It's hard to call Pink Floyd "rock". It's not that they aren't, but it's not exactly as if they are, eather. I'd chuck them in Alternative, or if it were recognised, Progressive. And it's bands like Floyd, where I whole heartedly agreed with boo boo in lobbying for that Progressive forum.

To truly embody rock, I'm going to say AC/DC. Sure a lot of it's generic, but the fact that they kicked arse song after song, album after album, while being a through and through rock band is in my mind the pinacle of rock music. It's just outright rock, and it's bloody good rock too.
