Members Mr. Poopsicle Posted October 25, 2006 Members Share Posted October 25, 2006 Couldn't care less about "biggest", but the best US band right now running away with it is Wilco.Can't forget RHCP though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members wacopacco Posted October 25, 2006 Members Share Posted October 25, 2006 definately gotta be the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Tool RHCP has the best selling rock album and Tool had the second best selling, according to Rolling Stone.
