Default Modern Day Beatles?
What bands do you think could be a good contendor for a modern day equivalent of the Beatles?

I personally think Animal Collective could be a good one. The band has a lot of fun, cheery, psychedelic pop music and they are very creative. Not to mention, they have clear Beatles influence. Sure, they're a little more electronic, but they have a similar presence. I could be wrong. I think they have a lot to offer in terms of quality, and so did the Beatles, even if I believe both are just a little overrated.

I think the real question, is who was the 60's Cannibal Corpse?

Foxygen does a pretty good Beatles ripoff.

We're talking about style and influence, right? Not marketing, popularity, and cultural phenomenon?

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

The Young Veins - Change


I thought they had the potential to be the next Beatles, but alas they sorta drifted into the one album category, which is a shame. I was looking forwarded for them to do a Sgt Pepper & "White" album.
Believe it or not two members were from Panic! @ the Disco, Ryan Ross and Jon Walker.
