Top 1000 Artists #370-#361

370 - The Gin Blossoms - For about two year's time The Gin Blossoms were the biggest band in alternative rock, producing hit after hit in what seemed like an unstoppable march to the top of music. Then they disappeared... off the face of the earth. And they've never come back. They should have known better than to play that show for the Anasazi Indians.

369 - George Michael - George remains one of the biggest pop stars all over the world, but in the 80's he was one of the biggest entertainers in the United States with his hugely successful Faith album pushing hit after hit to the top of the charts.

368 - Monster Magnet - Monster Magnet is perhaps the most unique and original metal band to come around during the 90's, as they used elements of glam rock to pump up their straight-forward metal sound on hits like "Powertrippin''.

367 - Radio 4 - An indie dance rock band that made their biggest splash in the early 21st century during the garage rock revival that gave us The White Stripes and The Hives. Their music isn't quite as good as those new legends, but they're on the right track.

366 - The Happy Mondays - A Brit pop band that had a great deal of success in the early 90's with disco-infused dance rock hits that went on to inspire a large number of bands a few years down the road.

365 - Public Image Ltd. - After the Sex Pistols broke up Johnny Rotten formed PIL and managed to stay relevant as punk transitioned into New Wave.

364 - The Notorious B.I.G. - One of the greatest rappers of all-time, Biggie cranked out a few legendary albums before he was murdered. Fortunately, he had the sense to not continue releasing albums after his death, a lesson Tupac Shakur has yet to learn.

363 - Temple Of The Dog - The supergroup that didn't realize they were a supergroup, Temple Of The Dog featured both Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder as well as other future members of Pearl Jam. The band only released one album in honor of a fallen grunge hero, but they still managed to produce two of grunge's greatest songs "Hunger Strike" and "Say Hello 2 Heaven".

362 - The Postal Service - Ben Hibbard of Death Cab For Cutie uses this band essentially as his A Perfect Circle and while the band isn't quite as successful as Death Cab they still managed to have a great deal of success in the indie electronic genre.

361 - Bauhaus - The most successful and popular goth rock band of the post-punk era in the early 80's, Bauhaus created a series of dark and gloomy masterpieces, highlighted by their epic signature song "Bela Lugosi's Dead".
