The beatles. No not THOSE beatles, the new beatles. We haven't recorded an album yet and technically we're not really a band yet but our indie-gospel-post-funk-punk style is going to be huge when you guys hear our stuff in about 5 years.

They honestly are though. Scaruffi is great but he's a contrarian. Read him to challenge your opinions and draw new insights into the music you listen to, but don't just mindless subscribe to everything he says. He's a smart guy but he's not the arbiter of good rock music
>If the Beatles aren't the best rock band, then who is?
Led Zeppelin, obviously.

Velvet Underground is most important/influential for a start

but are they good?
Friend and rival DJ Premier believed in Fred Durst and, using his superior business skills, served as patron on his next release, Significant Other. Durst lived with the Limp Bizkit in a dilapidated house and survived with the help his parents. The group, strengthened by the young guitarist Wes Borland (aka "Wes Borland"), by bassist Sam Rivers (alias "Sam Rivers") and by John Otto ("John Otto") at the bass clarinet, lived in isolation. Durst composed the pieces that French, a fundamental collaborator at the time, transcribed to music for rock band. Each musician had complete freedom of interpretation. John Otto was also taken by the clarinet, which he used as a harmonica with an extended range. The gestation of the album was long and laborious, but was resolved by an eight-hour session from which Durst and extracted a double album entitled Significant Other (Interscope, 1999).
That record has an aura of "rapcore" that the previous albums don't have. The savage spontaneity of the warped blues in Mirror Man is transformed into an artistically conscious program, albeit just as spastic. The humor of Three Dollar Bill, Y'All$ is abandoned in favor of an eccentric but serious humor reminiscent of Erik Satie. The infernal fumes of early Limp evolve into complex and angular harmonies. What comes out is one of the most creative, courageous albums of all time, decades ahead on the rest of rock music.
In many ways this record is the equivalent of the Fantasia in Schumann's career. Adorno wrote that
the Fantasia only seems the product of a madman, while in reality it is the expression of the
madman one second before folly takes over.
