Best rock singles of the past decade
Basket Case [CD 2]Basket Case [CD 2] by Green Day
Buy used from: £0.39
The definitive Green Day song. Even people who hate Green Day know the words to this beauty of a track. All together now, 'Do you have the time, to listen to me whine...'
Shinobi Vs Dragon Ninja [CD 1]Shinobi Vs Dragon Ninja [CD 1] by Lostprophets
Buy used from: £25.00
The most hyperactive little metal number you'll ever hear. Anyone that doesn't think that this is at least a good song needs to check for a pulse.
Chop Suey [CD 2]Chop Suey [CD 2] by System Of A Down
Buy new: £9.73 / Used from: £0.75
The theme tune for a schizophrenic. This is so close to being higher up, and the video rocks like a proverbial b*****d.
Time of Your Life (Good Riddance) [CD 1]Time of Your Life (Good Riddance) [CD 1] by Green Day
Buy used from: £5.00
The ultimate acoustic song. Not a dry eye in the house when this baby plays. Criminal that it never reached the number 1 spot.
Smells Like Teen SpiritSmells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
Buy used from: £0.56
With the coolest guitar solo since Spinal Tap, this is easily one of the greatest songs of all time.
Buck Rogers [CD 1]Buck Rogers [CD 1] by Feeder
Buy new: £3.50 / Used from: £0.01
I've seen an entire festival crowd bounce to this song (Whoever went to Reading 2001 or saw the higlights will know what I'm on about), which easily proves it to be an amazing song.
Kids Arent AllrightKids Arent Allright by Offspring
Buy used from: £8.00
An emotional little tune about messed up youth, a very different lyrical direction as far as The Offspring are concerned, but still a great tune.
If I Could [CD 1]If I Could [CD 1] by Hundred Reasons
Buy used from: £0.81
Until the album comes out, I consider this as Hundred Reasons' best tune to date. This is so infectious it's untrue.
Used for GlueUsed for Glue by Rival Schools
Buy new: £3.64 / Used from: £0.01
The chunkiest riffage you will EVER hear. The vocals by former Quicksand man Walter Schreifels are just the best he's done ever. This man has NEVER sounded better.
Beautiful People [CD 1]Beautiful People [CD 1] by Marilyn Manson
Buy new: £3.43 / Used from: £0.88
It's 1996, and the scariest rock star since Alice Cooper has just acheived chart success. The drums are amazing and the video will scare you witless if you ever get the chance to see it.
Toxicity [CD 1]Toxicity [CD 1] by System Of A Down
Buy new: £0.95 / Used from: £1.99
S.O.A.D. dish out another bit of seriously infectious mental-metal with innovative guitars and another schizophrenic riff.
Black Hole SunBlack Hole Sun by Soundgarden
Buy used from: £1.99
Slow grungy offering from Chris Cornell and co. Easily has some of the most surreal lyrics this side of System Of A Down.
Freak on a Leash [CD 1]Freak on a Leash [CD 1] by Korn
Buy used from: £2.72
What I think to be KoRn's greatest moment, this mixes up the tune halfway through, then hits into the chorus again, as if nothing happened. Weird, but amazing.
Sleep Now in the Fire [CD 1]Sleep Now in the Fire [CD 1] by Rage Against The Machine
Buy used from: £0.75
Catchy as f**k and twice as thought provoking, this offering from rap-metal kings Rage Against The Machine is easily one of their best.
Pretty Vacant LivePretty Vacant Live by Sex Pistols
Buy used from: £0.95
One of the best British punk songs. If you listen to this then afterwards still think that Blink 182, Sum 41, and New Found Glory are remotely punk, shoot yourself in the head.
My Own Summer [CD 2]My Own Summer [CD 2] by Deftones
Buy used from: £1.87
Either the Deftones most loved or most hated song, you can't help but scream along to the chorus of 'SHOVE IT SHOVE IT SHOVE IT!'. The words 'sheer f**king brilliance' don't come close.
Plug In Baby - CD1Plug In Baby - CD1 by Muse
Buy used from: £4.49
Muse's only good song. And damn is it good. This is possibly the most emotion-fuelled song I have ever heard. The only song where Bellamy's vocals fit the song. This could make a dead man breathe.
We Luv UWe Luv U by Grand Theft Audio
Buy used from: £0.69
Bugger Andrew W.K., THIS is the ultimate party song and you all know it to be true. Mixing dance beats with heavy riffs (A tried and tested formula) this is a great song.
Under the BridgeUnder the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Buy used from: £3.38
The funk rockers greatest song, with the unforgettable guitar bit at the start. Sadly this song was defiled when mediocre girl 'band' All Saints covered it.
Heart Shaped BoxHeart Shaped Box by Nirvana
Buy new: £4.74 / Used from: £1.17
Everyone thinks 'Smells Like...' was Nirvana's biggest song. WRONG. Thsi got to no.3 in the charts and is easily a great song and my personal fave on 'In Utero'.
