They kinda blur the definition of "rock band", but LCD Soundsystem would be my pick.

I still love The Strokes and Franz Ferdinand, though. thumbs up!

The Answer. Seen them live 3 times so far and I truly think the Special Edition of their debut album "Rise" is one of the best of the last 20 years.

"No One Knows" is certifiably one of the greatest songs of this century.

If this song comes on the radio, I cannot help but blast it and cause more permanent hearing impairment.

With so much mediocre music generated this century, this one easily stands out above the fray.

I do, i have seen them live a handful of times, they used to be compared to The Jesus & mary Chain a lot when they first started, but i never heard that in their music.

They are fantastic live.
