| Best Bands To Come Out Of The 00's
Everyone is doing the best albums of the last decade, so I decided that I'll do the best bands just to be different. Yes, some of these started in the late '90s and maybe even released their debut then, but nonetheless, they were a '00s band. | | 1 | Isis
The band that created the true post-metal sound with Oceanic and likely has the most influence on underground (and some mainstream) hard rock than any other band of the decade. | | 2 | Brand New
From mediocre pop-punk to the now amazing diverse alt rock sound, especially on The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me. | | 3 | Thrice
Another band that started out with a typical sound of a genre, this one being post-hardcore (though being some of the best), to a now very diverse sound, particularly on Vheissu. | | 4 | Cult of Luna
Likely the first band to be heavily influenced by Isis, creating their own post-metal on the same level as them with Salvation, Somewhere Along the Highway, and Eternal Kingdom. | | 5 | Mastodon
Progressive metal with influence from Neurosis and Thin Lizzy (especially guitar wise) that happened to have created four of the best albums of the decade, each with its own sound. | | 6 | Pig Destroyer
In my opinion, the best and most diverse grindcore band, thanks to Scott Hull's beastly guitar riffs and J.R. Hayes' more ranged (for the genre) and accessible vocals. | | 7 | The White Stripes
I can imagine that in another decade, Jack White will be considered a legend by the music community. | | 8 | System of a Down
Everyone knows this band and Toxicity was one of the best albums of the decade. They need to reunite and tour. | | 9 | The Ocean
A metal band that has a little piece of everything in their sound. Just listen to Precambrian for proof. Definitely needs more recognition. | | 10 | Slipknot
Yes, many of you are going to disagree, but I still love this band and was the first really heavy band I got into. | | 11 | The Dillinger Escape Plan
Calculating Infinity was released in 1999, but DEP is still a '00s band with Miss Machine and Ire Works being amazing albums as well. | | 12 | Between the Buried and Me
Very technical extreme metal featuring hints of just about every genre you can think of, but especially metalcore, progressive rock, and death metal. | | 13 | Cave In
Again, the debut was released in 1999 (Beyond Hypothermia being a collection of old songs, while Until Your Heart Stops was recorded specifically as an album), but the majority of time was spent in the '00's with more excellent releases. | | 14 | Underoath
One of the first metalcore bands to become mainstream, the music is still amazing and seems to improve with every album, taking influence from underground bands such as Converge and Isis. | | 15 | Darkest Hour
Melodic death metal with a hardcore/metalcore vibe, the music is always consistent, entertaining, and superb. | | 16 | Gojira
Groove based death metal, one of the best in the genre, with a badass riff at every corner turned. Not to mention AMAZING live.. and French! From Mars to Sirius and The Way of All Flesh are both epic metal albums. | | 17 | 65daysofstatic
A different kind of post-rock that is just as good as the normal kind, being all instrumental except for The Conspiracy of Seeds, which features Circle Takes the Square. | | 18 | Silversun Pickups
Indie rock with a ton of shoegaze, Carnavas and Swoon are both atmospheric albums with the guitar being used for texture rather than the focus-point. | | 19 | Muse
Easily the best Radiohead spawn that especially became popular with Absolution. | | 20 | The Mars Volta
Eclectic progressive rock that came to be after the breakup of post-hardcore band At the Drive-In, featuring Omar Rodr?guez-L?pez and Cedric Bixler-Zavala and some of the best albums of the last ten years. | |

01.07.10 | Honorable mentions: Baroness, As I Lay Dying, Shadows Fall, Team Sleep, Norma Jean, Circle Takes the Square (only has one album, so didn't put them on), and others that I can't think of at the moment.
Also, the list isn't in a particular order. | eternium
01.07.10 | Oh, and Pelican. | eternium
01.07.10 | And Explosions in the Sky. | JWT155
01.07.10 | Very good list thts well rounded with different genres. While I wouldn't say Slipknot became who they are only in this decade but their mark on the mainstream Metal music scene during the last 10 years is undeniable. | eternium
01.07.10 | Slipknot released the debut in 1999, so yeah.
Also Rise Against and Queens of the Stone Age. | qwe3
01.07.10 | btbam's terrible but having system on here means you win | AliW1993
01.07.10 | from these bands, 5, 7, 8, 19 and 20 will definitely be remembered in the future.
2 and 18 are amazing bands as well, and the rest of these i've heard are at least good, so great list. | Poet
01.07.10 | Lost Horizon | cirq
01.07.10 | You forgot The Beatles | eternium
01.07.10 | lol, right. | rhcpkp15

Bad Astronaut
| eternium
01.07.10 | I actually haven't listened to those bands, or not enough anyway. | qwe3
01.07.10 | yah streetlight>most of the bands on this list man they're superb | Powerban
01.07.10 | Agree with a few bands on this list. I guess that's why I've seen you as my musical neighbour every so often.
Few bands here I really despise, but the ones I love make up for it. | eternium
01.07.10 | I'll listen to Streetlight sometime.
Glad you guys approve of my list. | syco722
01.31.10 | BTBAM = win | fr33convict
02.26.10 | The first System of a Down album is from 1998 or 1999 and the released like 4 or 5 EPs before that, didn't they? | GnarlyShillelagh
02.26.10 | List should have been best bands to come out of the closet | Masochist
02.26.10 | I think A Perfect Circle, Mae and/or Anberlin ought to have spots here, but this list is pretty damn awesome as it is. Especially enjoy Muse, Underoath, System, TMV and the first three. | Deviant.
02.26.10 | System's s/t was 98, and Showbiz by Muse was '99 | Deviant.
02.26.10 | And slipknot was late '90's as well |
