Deftones are a pioneering alternative rock band from Sacramento, California, USA. Deftones have been called many things, including metal, nu metal and hard rock - but really, their music transcends labels.

Silverchair are one of Australia’s most successful rock bands of all time. A lot was made of Silverchair’s ages (14/15) when they released the monumental Frogstomp in 1995. It was an incredible feat for 3 teenagers, especially given the quality of what they produced - but their age often went against them by becoming the focal point. A lot of people may not have paid attention to the seismic musical evolution throughout Silverchair’s career, and in Daniel Johns’ solo work. Daniel Johns is a genuine musical genius, with a creative approach to melody and orchestration that has led to a huge range of music to discover. This list combines Silverchair, The Dissociatives and Daniel Johns solo - and if there is anything you haven’t heard yet, you’re in for a treat.

Unique, bonkers, artistic, creative, brilliant. The Mars Volta have been called many things over the years, but never boring. With an ever-changing supporting line-up alongside the core duo of Omar Rodriquez-Lopez and Cedric Bixler-Zavala, their albums are a wild ride of Latin rhythms, prog, rock, jazz, dub, pop and, to use Cedric’s phrase, ‘future punk’. Ranking the albums is a challenge because they are all brilliant. This list includes a live record, the original ‘Tremulant’ EP and an Omar solo album - because they all tell an important part of the Mars Volta story.

When Linkin Park first came on the scene in 2000, they were dismissed by metal purists for being too ‘pop’. But, deep down, everyone is a sucker for a good tune. Over the years, Linkin Park have become so synonymous with the rock and metal scene that they have been embraced by everyone; and we all felt the loss of Chester Bennington deeply in 2017. Here, we embrace the tricky task of ranking Linkin Park’s stellar discography. Yes, ‘Hybrid Theory’ is the superstar - but there may be some decisions along the way that surprise you!
