The rock genre had become crap when the definition of a rock album became a single surrounded by filler. All of these bands had the talent and drive to make solid cds.
Queens Of The Stone Age - Their music is awesome. Their albums flow nicely.
System Of A Down - The most original band in rock. Their real albums albums are all solid.
Chevelle - First album was catchy but a little slow. Their new heavy sound is alot better and actually works well with Thrice's - The Artist...
Strata - Passionate band. Worked hard to get signed and write awesome songs.
Muse - You all know them.
Lostprophets - One of few bands whose sophomore effort blew away their debut.
Papa Roach - People aren't gonna like me for putting this band down. But their 1st and 3rd full lengths are awesome. They change their sound with every record. "Between Angels And Insects" has awesome lyrics and a good message.
Linkin Park - Sue me, because there is no reason for anyone to hate them.

I wont bash on Muse because I haven't given them a fair listen. But each band you just listed is pure fucking shit aside from Queens.

Strata is hard to describe because they are fairly unique. 36 Crazyfists meets Glassjaw meets a rock sound maybe. It's tough. Try out some of their music.

papa roach, lost prophets, linkin park, system of a down are all bands that i liked freshmen year. i guess my taste in music has changed or "evolved"... plus, all their follow-up albums werent very good in my opinion.

Muse is awesome, I love Muse. But I'm not too fond of the rest of the bands you named.

Papa Roach is rather catchy; Linkin Park is decent, but they get old fast. I like the stuff with Jay-Z though.

I like Muse but I agree with the rest of your statement. System of a down is fucking horrible.

I'm a kid, defend me. Strata is awesome they aren't big enough yet for the elitists to hate on. System of a down is awesome my friend.

Holy crap "Terminal Diety" is intesne. It's probably my favorite song from Until Your Heart Stops next to "Controlled Mayhem Then Erupts."
