Top 10 Alt-country bands

This list from the "ahem", dallas observer (The 10 Greatest Alt-Country Bands Ever) is a joke and no better than the "gazillion" that come before it. Just do a search on OPs title on the inter webs.

With the exception of UT/Wilco/Son Volt, the rest in this lame duck three legged dog list should not even be on one titled: "Greatest Alt-Country Bands Ever"

This a a HUGELY populated style of music today - thanks in no small part to folks like the Flying Burrito Brothers; The Byrds; The Band et al.

Maybe I should put one together so we can all just move on and get over the self important hey look at me I can name bands I don't listen to or have their records but I think are "Greatest Alt-Country Bands Ever...."

Nah, it aint worth it.

Noted, the reason people have posted for a favorite band, if it belongs on the best ever list or not, is to make others aware of a band they might not know about, so they can pick up that bands music, not to actually ARGUE.

Then you come along and kick everyone in the groin, but have nothing of any value to add to the discussion.

What kind of person acts like that?

Thanks to the useful people who have added to my knowledge and collection.

You all should listen to The Wood Brothers, all three of their studio albums are awesome !!! Great live band too !! I've seen them twice.

Agree about the Wood Brothers, awesome band for the un-initiated, but I would not consider them "alt- country".
