Maverick Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I don't know who the most popular band is like that. But my favorite band like that is Black Country Communion. It is possible that, as a solo act, Joe Bonamassa fits the bill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoopid Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) Perhaps a few lesser known prog acts come to mind, but most of the guitar based music I listen to originates from before this time... interesting!

Entre_Perpetuo Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 hm... technically speaking, I'd argue Coldplay. Most of their songs have a prominent guitar of some kind. But you mean some real, heavy kind of guitar. And those are pretty hard to come by these days. Perhaps The Black Keys would fit the bill, or My Chemical Romance or Fall Out Boy. The Strokes were a pretty big deal once upon a time as well. Also, let's talk acoustics. Mumford And Sons, Of Monsters And Men, The Lumineers...even Ed Sheeran. They could all count feasibly. If you're looking for a GnR or anything of the sort though, you ain't gonna find it, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 https://www.thetoptens.com/best-rock-bands-2000s/ This list says GreenDay, which makes sense. I think of American Idiot, which was huge, guitar-based, and even a concept album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I think the OP meant bands formed in the new millennium, or released their debut from 2000 onwards... In that case: Alter BridgeMastodonTrivium 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering their guitars parts are uninteresting 3-4 chord punk/rock, I'd say you're right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laughedatbytime Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Nickelback, of course. God, I hate you outside of SOCN. I didn't say they were any good, I just said they were the biggest and most popular. It's a trivia question, not an opinion question if you actually assign meanings to words. Then again, I'm inserting the words major label into the thread title, so you can accuse me of the same thing if you want. Since I just posted what I did to get a reaction, anyway, I don't really care that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat 3 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 If you're looking for a GnR or anything of the sort though, you ain't gonna find it, sorry.I, humbly, disagree... ...Izzy Stradlin is a fine guitar player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
