Your Ultimate Band
May 20, 2005 at 12:32 AM Post #17 of 48
Obvious question: How can you truly have an ultimate band if there is not a lot of chemistry (atleast in theory) between all members? Picking an all-star baseball team and an ultimate band is not the same thing. But I love both music and baseball...

Ya I know, I had considered this before but didnt really feel like explaining it. But lets just say, for the sake of argument, that everyone has great chemestry between each other. Then who would you pick?

This is a great thread. Cyclone, your supergroup doesn't have a bass player? It doesn't seem to be a problem for The White Stripes and Black Keys so I guess that's cool.

Lead vox/rhythm guitar - Britt Daniel (Spoon)
Backup vox - Harriet Wheeler (The Sundays)
Lead guitar/rhodes piano/xylophone/etc - Jonny Greenwood (Radiohead)
Bass - Eric Axelson (Dismemberment Plan)
Drums - Joseph Easley (Dismemberment Plan)

I couldn't help putting both of the D-Plan guys in there. When they were together I thought that was the best rhythm section around.

My perfect band is probably the flaming lips (the lineup from 1995).

My perfect band for power rock would be gov't mule from 2000.

My perfect band for psychedelic music would be the grateful dead from 1990.

My perfect band for pure pop isn't a band at all, it's the group of people brian wilson put together to make smile, and then had disolve around him because mike love didn't want to go that direction.

Supergroups don't do it for me. Give me real connections.

Heheh, thats not a symphony - Haggard is a symphony.

It wouldnt have looked out of place if there was only one vocalist, but as a fan of alot of Gothic Rock/Metal and Iron Maiden dual vocalists and tri-guitar is a must for my ultimate band

guitar/vocals = Daron Malakian from System of a Down
bass = someone with a good drone
drums = [insert good tribal drummer who dies early so band can become great]
producer = alan parsons
country of origin = canada
}

thinking about it this might just be bad
