Best Band (of these choices)
 

What is the best band of these choices? Tool, Radiohead, Deftones, Rage Against the Machine, A Perfect Circle, System of a Down, Nine Inch Nails

I'd say TOOL. Not to take away anyting from the other bands (except the Deftones who couldn't suck more live) but TOOL has consistently made music their own way while at the same time progressing as a band and the art form they create. Their members all play equal roles and the 4 unique roles create one massively ingenius sound. Their live show is amazing and the albums are always intellectual while as balls out as possible.

I agree with everything you said there.

I'd also have to say Tool, however I'd much rather listen to NIN's Pretty Hate Machine over any Tool album anyday.

Pretty Hate Machine is f*ckin' awesome! But I still like Tool better.

Radiohead for me. just love their progressive sound and their songs make you think while totally rocking.

RATM - **** you i won't do what ya tell me.... nuff said really.

NIN i love them

They're all good bands.

I forgot about the She-Birds and Elephants!! They kick ass!!
