Green Day on Parade Magazine list of Top 10 Rock Bands of All Time

By Tony /13 years ago / 0 Comments

[img=122711_parade.jpg]Green Day are at number 6 on Parade Magazine's list of the "Top 10 Rock Bands Of All Time":

The punk revivalists of Green Day formed in Berkeley, Calif. in 1988. This band sought to bring the speedy, raw, and overly energetic sounds of late 70s punk to a new generation. They paved the way for American neo-punk, punk metal, and the third revival of ska, and even had a Broadway musical, American Idiot, based on their music.

Other artists to make Parade's top 10 include Queen, The Rolling Stones and Journey. Some band called The Beatles came in at number 1 on the list! ;)

You can head over to Parade.com to watch a slideshow of the full list.
