This post has been set up to discuss the greatest rock/heavy metal bands beginning with the letter C.
To start us off I will throw into the arena

Catatonia

Coming from Wales, a natural choice for me to make, while many would claim Catatonia are Indie they are far more rockier than the normal indie pop bands, with intelligents lyrics and thumping bass and drums they deserve a place in the greatest rock/heavy metals to be begin with the letter C.

Enjoy a few samples from Catatonia

Now what letter do we put "The Cult" under, is it "C", or "D" as thet were once "Death Cult", or is it "S" for "Southern Death Cult".......... I'm so confused!!!!!

The Chili Peppers :P

But if they don't count as a C, another vote here for Creedence Clearwater Revival.

Cream...

shame that ego clashes curtailed their initial career (and reunion)- but, at their best, undisputed kings of the power blues-rock genre.

BTW: Red Hot Chili Peppars looks like a band for the 'R' file to me.

Checking my ipod play count, The Clash get top spot over Cribs and Cranberries, surprisingly Coral are nowhere, and Cradle of Filth have not troubled the scorers.
Coldplay are not everymans definition of rock. More the bed wetters catagory.

I know it well - it's 12 minutes long, and was on Cosmo's Factory - the first album I ever bought as a wee lad :D. Ramble Tamble, off the same album and running at about 7 minutes, is even better.

Do 10cc get posted on the "C" list, the "T" list or the "1" list. :)

10cc were a great band, although at times a bit too clever for their own good. Sheet Music was a work of genius.

Agree with you re Caravan, too. I was going to suggest them but thought they'd be too obscure (and not really "rock") for this thread.

By the way, I first came across 10cc in a small disco in Luton, before anyone had heard of them. My mates were getting pissed and trying to pull birds and I was going, check out this band, they're really something! :lol:
