Also I think Elliott Smith is some indie icon, and since indie is the big craze he gets lots of votes.

I don't think he is the best band though, The Fall, Black Sabbath, and David Bowie (i'm ignoring Bright Eyes as a choice) have contributed much more groundbreaking, technically advanced music, which I believe constitutes a better band.

We're talking the BEST band in the scope of all bands. And a indie guy with a unique voice is the best band? I just don't get it.

I hope I made some sense in my ramblings.
you're dense...have you ever sat and thought that the reason so many people like elliott is because his music was amazing?

It isn't. Mozart is amazing, Led Zeppelin is amazing, Black Sabbath is amazing, The Beatles are amazing, etc. The bands that revolutionized music are amazing because they revolutionized music. This indie singer did not create enough original, influential material for him to be amazing.

I guess we just have different definitions of what constitutes good music.
