We all have a band that we credit with igniting our passion in music. It may be the Beatles the Rolling Stones or more recent bands such as Red Hot Chili Peppers or Nirvana. Question is...... can bands of the moment stand up and survive as Icons of rock? In 10 years time will the youth of the future be naming Fall Out Boy, Paramore and 30 Seconds to Mars as thier ultimate musical discovery? Have My Chemical Romance got what it takes to ride the wave of instant popularity and become an inspiration for rock bands in years to come? Or not? Im relying on you to tell me what you think:

I think MCR will stand the test of time because they've changed the face of music, but overall, these bands don't compare to those of yesteryear, who've already proven themselves to be immortal.

Do RHCP really stand the test of time? They always seemed like a third rate Funkadelic. Now there's a band that stood the test of time -- Funkadelic -- even though in their prime their records went woefully overlooked and didn't sell at all. Maybe there are some bands around today who no one is listening to, but who will have a lasting influence on the bands to come. Is that another poll? What Underrated Band Today Will Have the Most Influence 20 Years From Now?

hey- are you talking mr clinton here (and i dont mean bill)? Respect to George and Bootsy :) Dont see the similarity with chili peppers though.

The RHCP seemed to see the connection. Didn't they enlist G.C. to produce one of their breakthrough albums? If you dig deeply into the Funkadelic soul mine, you may reach a point where the RHCP cease to exist. But that might just be me.

i like fob as much as the next person, but seriously, THEY DO NOT COMPARE TO THE BEATLES AND NIRVANA.
this poll has already been ruined by too many teeny votes.

Are you kidding me? There's no way My Chemical Romance could outlast The Beatles. Or Fall Out Boy out last the Stones. Some of these popular bands today will be dropped like that. No one will remember their name in five years. (Or even next year.)

AGREED!!! I'm sure when New Kids first came out and when Nsync came out the teenies did think they would ever go away, and that they were the best thing ever. Only time will tell about FOB or MCR or any of the newer bands out there. I'm not against them by any means, I just think it is way to early to give them legend status.

I really like nirvana, the rolling stones and all the others. But they started small too. I don't think that you can already say if bands like MCR an FOB are going to be like them. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what time brings for them!

Old fart stuff, NO QUESTION!
The Beatles, Nirvana, Queen, the Stones, RHCP, and classic glam rock/hair metal (Guns N' Roses, Motley Crue, etc) will live on forever. (:
FOB and MCR are probably only gonna live on until the musicians are old, fat, and ugly, and then nobody's gonna like them anymore. That's what they get when half their fans only like them because they're hot...

Pete is my wife!! i swear my penis is bigger then his.

old stuff changed music in a good way, new emo stuff has told ppl to kill themselves to be "cool"
This comment is so simplistic and ignorant I don't know where to begin:
"Old stuff"? It depends on what old stuff you're talking about.
"Emo tells people to kill themselves" URGHHH!!!! If I have to hear someone say that one more time, heads will roll!!!!

I judge a band by their music, not by what decade they existed in. Good music is timeless.

ok, i know all u freaks are obbsessed with fob and mcr now and think they will still be making hit music till they die, but i have one question, will you still be listening to songs like welcome to the black parade and this aint a scene its an armsrace when your 30 or 40?? really, will you?? if u will, then i fear for children :)
One of my teachers pointed out that our "oldies" stations are going to be filled with Justin Timberlake and Fall Out Boy and all this crap. I'll be listening to oldie oldie radio.
