A Perfect Circle

In all reality, unless Tool gets in, there should be little reason to think that what is essentially a side project of the band (A Perfect Circle) has any discernable Hall of Fame chance. Alternative metal in some form should get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but the current plight of regular Metal acts makes it seem so much more difficult. Now, how do we direct this back to Tool?

3 Doors Down

The first ten years of this millennium has been kind to 3 Doors Down in many ways.   They have been a constant on the Billboard charts and have been one of the few Post Grunge bands who haven’t sounded watered down. At their core, they are decent Rock band who appealed to Pop, Alternative and Metal and did so without a perceived sell out factor.   They are very much on the outside looking in at this point, but there is still time for that to change.

Zero 7

A much respected Trip Hop group, London’s Zero 7 were masters of the Studio and utilized the Electronic spectrum to optimum ability. Unlike many acclaimed British acts, Zero 7 did manage to chart on the U.S. Market; albeit on the Dance Charts. It may not be Hall of Fame credentials, but they have a lot of their peers beat.  Throw in that they had the future acclaimed Sia in their group, do we have a dark horse on our hands?  Probably not.

329. Tegan and Sara

The Alternative Folk twins of Tegan and Sara are as of this writing starting to finally penetrate the World market. They have a very devoted fan base for their earnest and slightly quirky songs but it is a style of music that is not exactly conducive to mass appeal. That’s OK, not every group is meant for that, but you can’t expect Indie darlings with a high LGBT appeal to really force themselves into the Hall of Fame. We don’t expect that they do either.
