I nominate At The Drive In
No other band could have made a song as great as "Sleepwalk Capsules"

Broadcast....

That's nice.
But first off.....

Easy?????
I don't Think So......So Many Bands........

Well????????

What do you mean by the Best? (Best at what sales,concerts,most time on Mtv, getting laid, best tattoos, best body, Best BS.
(Best of the Best?)

Ah, Yes, "Best Music"

And What do you mean by Semi-Mainstream? ( The stuff my local radio station plays? (Pudd of mudd,nickelback,Offspring,narviana,.....ect)

Also,Ten Years is a long time. And alot of bands are worth this title.

At least we should vote by Music Genre

Nomination - For "Best Hard Rock Act of the Last Decade" "Bruce Dickinson"

Semi mainstrem meaning they were just mainstrem enough to get some airplay but weren't stuffed down your throat ala Linkin Park
Also the genre to genre thing could also work

The members of Hoobastank are hardly recognized walking down the street, so I'll say they're one of my favorite semi-mainstream bands...

Bjork also. Homogenic is one my top ten album of the 90's
And sadly most people only know her as the chick who wore the funny outfit to the Oscars

But Bjork's later albums are so...... average.
