Get ready to rewind the dial back to the decade of skinny jeans, MySpace, flip phones, and more subgenres of rock than anyone knew what to do with. In this episode of The Rock Pod, host Jimmy breaks down the Top 10 Bands of the 2000s — the groups that defined the sound of the new millennium, reshaped the charts, and gave us some of the most iconic songs of the last 25 years.

From the garage-rock revival of The White Stripes, to the emo explosion led by My Chemical Romance, to the arena-shaking dominance of Foo Fighters, to the genre-bending brilliance of Linkin Park, we dive deep into each band’s origin story, biggest hits, behind-the-scenes drama, career-defining albums, and yes… all the dirt that made the 2000s unforgettable.

You’ll hear about stolen master tapes, chaotic early tours, ghosts backstage, political firestorms, eyeliner-induced revolutions, and the strange cosmic events that formed some of the most important rock bands of the era. It’s funny, it’s raw, it’s nostalgic, and it’s packed fuller than your old iPod Classic.

Turn up the volume, relive the decade, and see if your favorite made the list.

All Killer. No Filler. Only on The Rock Pod.
