Sidenote: the first half of the oughts was the last great period of guitar-centric projects. The 20 year prospectives are really hammering this home. The latest anniversaries of the Ted Leo and Exploding Hearts records, two of my favorite records this century, reached that milestone this year.

Do we interpret it as, like, which of the rock bands that were popular within the last 15 years (a very short list) had the most influence on the popular rock bands releasing music within the last 3-5 years (another very short list with a lot of overlap with the first one)?
Wilco and Arcade Fire come to mind? I have no idea.

The answer is still the Deftones
