OH GOD...MY EARS!!! Kick these guys in the balls...oh wait, not a good idea, since the lead singer needs to revisit puberty anyway.

On topic, this list kinda fails. Why? MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE IS #8. That band COMPLETELY fails. Although, was this meant for the J-Pop crowd, because I'm not sure if a lot of Americans know of L'Arc-en-Ciel.
Somehow I still have an account...yay...?

Like I said, Tokyo Hotel is the most appreciated band by teens and young girls at the moment. They are some young boys (under 18 ) from Germany and sings in german, pp say they play "rock", some even say it's "metal" but in fact it's just traditional pop songs. Actually, the only reason why most of their fans like this band because they think the singer is "handsome" (reminds me of the Hanson fever 10 years ago). Extremely overrated band.

30 Seconds To Mars. Well, I heard they are quite good, but same thing than Tokio Hotel, "handsome singer". He is a certain actor named Jared Leto, who is (or used to be ?) really famous in USA, after starring in the TV serie "My So Called Life" (with Claire Dane). I don't know if he starred in many movies, but his acting performance in Urban Legend and in So Called Life was nothing extraordinary in my opinion.

So it seems mostly female teens? had voted for that poll?

Still I´m happy Strato got that high as you see many really popular bands were below Strato. :!:

Well, I'm absolutely NOT fan of Tokio Hotel, but I still consider it a little better than all these bands that were so popular when I was a little above 10 :? ...I mean all these bands in 1990s like Backstreet Boys, Boyzone, Hanson or Spice Girls :lol: :lol: :lol: I always looked like an idiot at school...all girls sighing for these "musicians" and I listening to U2, Guns'n Roses, Nirvana... :D

I have seen few advertises on tv that show Tokio Hotel on them (you can order ring tones).
Well sure the singer looks kinda funny and coolish in it in good non metal way.
I have heard one song from them, I don't remember anything from it but I remember that it did not interest me in any form.

That list is a bad joke. :P Led Zeppelin 133 and Black Sabbath 152. 99% of the bands before them wouldn't even excist without them.

I'm afraid that most people, who helped Tokio Hotel and all others get their places have never heard about Black Sabbath or Led Zeppelin(((

RHCP at #52? They should be a hell of a lot higher. At least in the top 20.
Panic at #23??? WTF?
Any listing that puts FOB about 109 places above LED ZEPPLIN deserves to be shut down. And I'm usually not that pissy about music ratings and websites, but that is worse than a joke.
