25. Soundgarden

No more Chris Cornell side projects, more Kim Thayil guitar solos, and, definitely, more girls drooling ice cream.

24. The Misfits

The current Misfits lineup doesn’t have Glenn Danzig in it so they’re not really The Misfits, are they? Get him back and maybe he’ll even award you with a cover of the Danzig (and Shoutmouth) favorite “Mother.”

Or you can just play this over and over again, too.

23. Stone Temple Pilots

Enough of this Velvet Revolver bullshit (sorry TomZ); let’s get the DeLeo brothers together and start making some of that freaky music that we all loved in the 90s. It’s going to take more than a reunion tour for these guys to win some fans over, so we’re going to need a stellar comeback album, too. Catch that, Weiland? Good.

Break out the rocking chair while you’re at it.

22. Sly and the Family Stone

I mean…we don’t need all of the Family Stone coming back or anything. What I’m talking about is this guy hitting the road with some sort of backing band for a full tour (none of this here and there bullshit).

21. Fugazi

They’re said to be on a hiatus and have been for five years. Not only do they kick major ass, but, hey, we need somebody to offer us cheap concert tickets these days.

20. Eric B. and Raki

The bare bones hip-hop exhibited by these grandmasters will not soon be forgotten, but while they’re still alive, it sure would be nice to Eric B. spinnin’ behind Rakim. I would clap my hands. No joke.
