Top 1000 Bands #940-#931

940 - Ambulance LTD - A bit of a one-hit wonder, but they're one of the more original bands to come out in recent years.

939 - Alicia Keys - Pop/R&B singer Alicia Keys makes the list on the strength of "Fallin'" alone, though she has many other solid songs.

938 - I'm From Barcelona - A brand new indie rock band with an interesting sound.

937 - Probot - Dave Grohl's metal side project that featured guest appearances by some of the greatest legends of heavy metal, including Lemmy from Motorhead.

936 - The Blues Brothers - The Saturday Night Live novelty act managed to put together a few albums, including one with a great cover of "Soul Man".

935 - The Troggs - They only had one hit, but it was a big one, the garage rock anthem "Wild Thing".

934 - The Pure Prarie League - A southern rock band that only broke through with one big hit, "Amie".

933 - The Standells - Another band, another one hit wonder. Their hit? "Dirty Water".

932 - Little Feat - Pretty much a one-hit wonder, Little Feat did manage to put together a large following on the basis of their other southern fried albums.

931 - DragonForce - 80's metal throwbacks DragonForce have some of the fastest guitars in the business working for them. If you can handle the cheese factor, they're actually pretty good.
