Well, you're wrong (although I do like Coldplay). I can name 4 better bands right now. Let's DO THIS!

I will use superhero analagies to illustrate my point.

Coldplay = Spiderman. Light, fun, powerful & potent, yet lacking the punch of many other great bands out there today. Fun, but not too deep.

Queens of the Stone Age = The Hulk. Also not too deep, but man, can they kick ass. Chew you up and spit you out. He could rip Spiderman in two.

Nine Inch Nails = Wolverine. Takes a licking and keeps on ticking. Just when you think they're down, they get back up and tear you a new one.

TOOL = Batman. Dark & painful past obscuring (and creating) amazing amounts of depth. Nothing especially "super" about them, other than that they spend massive amounts of time and energy trying to attain their artistic goals.

Radiohead = V (from V for Vendetta). They have taken what is expected and tweaked it, turning ones expectations on their head with the ultimate goal of changing the world. Like V, they were initially created by the system (your average Britpop band), but have taken control of their own destiny and are working toward that system's downfall.

U2 = Superman. Like Superman, they vow to work toward peace. Also like Superman, they've been around the longest and often play the role of mentoring and inspiring the up-and-comers. But when they come out of their corner, there's not really anyone that can compete with their amazing array of talents & achievements.
