Isaac Hayes

Neutral Milk Hotel (If you count the fact they recorded their albums here), otherwise its Apples In Stero
>Worst
3OH!3 or The Fray
>Best
Lynyrd Skynyrd
>Worst
Fucking Limp Bizkit
Both are from my hometown and I'm actually related to Lynyrd Skynyrd
>>63572028
I generally wanted people born or bands formed in the region. That's why I didn't use obvious stuff like Elvis or more recently Jack White.
>>63572055
I wonder how many people know Lynyrd Skynyrd aren't actually from Alabama. My guess is 5%. 1% if you don't count people from Florida.
>>63572122
I would have made a better choice, but every band in Colorado is hot garbage

Bruce Springsteen
>Worst
Bon Jovi
>>63572182
>best
Aerosmith or Vampire Weekend, take your pick

At least Bon Jovi had some good basslines.
British Colombia
>Best
Destroyer

kid Rock or whatever for a mainstream example.
Wisconsin, and it's pretty slim pickings.

Garbage
I don't even dislike Garbage; I just think they're kind of bland.

>Worst
Sum 41, I guess?
I'm very uneducated so I don't know many ontario artists desu

Sum 41 isn't even close to the bottom of the barrel when it comes to Ontario.
>Bryan Adams

Just because his black ass happened to fall out of his moms snatch while his dad was stationed here doesn't make him 'from' here
>>63572545
>worst jay-z
ok anon...
>>63571885
Both Phish and Anais Mitchell could end up as "Best" or "Worst", depending on how you look at it. I honestly don't know any others.
>>63571885
No bands from Arizona so I'll put bands from Washington, instead.

>>63572962
Rubblebucket is a NY band more than a VT band, although I do know the trombone player's brother.
You got me on Twiddle though, mostly because I hate literally all music that has come from this state and therefore I ignore it.

>>63573104
Having lived here my whole life, you're not as correct as you think you are. There's a lot of seriously deep-south redneck racism outside our one or two "major" cities.
Best: Radio Moscow

Gin Blossoms, Meat Puppets, DMX, AJJ, that's about it

I liked Slipknot in the 7th grade too, bro but it's time to let go.

I enjoyed touching other guys dicks in the 7th grade too, bro but it's time to let go.

I wanna say he's wrong, but Iowa City has a disproportionately high concentration of gays so. He's kinda right.
