Music will always be timeless and I think that is great.
It's why we are all here now doing this. Every since time humans have been using music for celebrations and it will continue this way. Music has a great impact on us all..... Lets give it up for music.

Some great timeless bands:
Beatles
Hendrix
Zeppelin
Rolling Stones
Nirvana
Sanatra
AC/DC
Yes
Heart
Elton John
And plenty more... maybe you can add a few

Some timeless ones to come:
Mars Volta
Tool
Anthony Green
John Frusciante
Radiohead
Foo Fighters......

Tool....glad you mentioned them. Honestly I havent kept up with them much since high-school but they def have their own sound. Prison Sex is just an awesome song. (that whole CD, Undertow I think, is a great one)

Some of those are very generational......

Nirvana? They really don't fit. One album does not make a timeless. I didn't like it then, and still don't like em. Now if it was the original Nirvana, 1967 UK Band, who did the Story Of Simon Simopath & All of Us, those Albums far exceed what the American band did .

Even Hendrix, might be pushing it a bit, since only 4 albums while he was alive, everything else would not of seen the light of day, if he had not passed.


To me a Timeless band, has to both attract new audiences to their old work, yet holding on to old audiences to their latest work (if the group still exists). Just doing "Greatest Hits" tours don't cut it if they are still around to me.

I love Nirvana.. Nevermind and In Utero were great. Not only could you argue that they revolutionized popular culture.. but they are consistantly recognized as major contributers to modern music. Good choice!
