Make sure you visit www.classicrockmagazine.com every day up until New Year’s Eve, when we’ll reveal our bound-to-be-controversial No.1!







If you can still class term as rock, my vote would go to Beautiful Day by U2. So ok Bono may be an annoying prick, but there is no denying it’s a great song. If you cannot be uplifted by it you would either be deaf or dead.
Judas Rising by Judas Priest
Youd better put some GNR up there…
No doubt you will count some re-release of Led Zep and make that number 1 – fnar fnar!!!!!!!!!
Gonna have to think about this and come back to you. Alter Bridge gotta be in there somewhere
I hope Airbourne are right up there the best album of the noughties by far
Porcupine Tree’s Trains, anyone?
alice in chains – check my brain
velvet revolver – slither
the darkness – growing on me
ac/dc – rock n’ roll train
jet – are you gonna be my girl?
all of these five surely in the top 100?
Chillis – ‘Wet Sand’ easily the best!
Best rock track of the 0ts gotta be riverside 02 panic room this band from Poland are the new floyd/purple etc. but with completely original material.Have a listen on spotify they’ll blow you away.
My vote goes to Muse – Stockholm Syndrome.
lonely train by black stone cherry has got to be there
Passenger by Deftones feat. Maynard James Keenan. Absolutely amazing track tucked away on White Pony.
Honourable mentions to Aerosmith’s Devil’s got a New Disguise, Tool’s Schism, RHCP’s Don’t Forget Me And The White Stripe’s Seven Nation Army, which gets riff off the decade award.
GNR, QOTSA and Buckcherry should all be in there too.
I recon something by Coheed & Cambria: “The Suffering”, anything off “In Keeping Secrets…” or “Sloe Gin” by Joe Bonnamassa
Trains by Porcupine Tree (from In Absentia) is the best track of the decade.
Knights of Cydonia by Muse. Can’t ignore a song with 2 monstrous riffs. Plus it’s awesome live.
Cochice – Audioslave
