5 Greatest American Rock Bands

(Trent McMartin) After five weeks and twenty-five bands, the final five acts of the 30 greatest American rock bands of all time are about to be revealed. The previous part (Part V: Numbers 10-6) saw the likes of The Pixies, R.E.M., The Grateful Dead, Parliament/Funkadelic and the Velvet Underground. The bands that make up the final five positions on this list are familiar (and obvious choices) to a majority of music fans. But that doesn't mean the selections won't cause a stir among those whose favourite group was not included or who denounce this list as being subjective. Again, this is not a definitive rock and roll ratings list -- no list is -- only a means to encourage discussion among individuals passionate about music.

5. The Doors
4. Sly and the Family Stone
3. The Ramones
2. Aerosmith
1. Nirvana
