Most skilled band?
Based upon actual technical ability, but also on the actual skill as a band, IE a cohesive entity and not just four good players ignoring each other.
Vote and comment.
Also name your favourite A-Team member.

Rush and B.A Baracus.
Rush because they seem like the most perfect, cleanest, clearest cohesive players in what they produce.
B.A coz he's a wicked driver.

Going to go with Fantomas, because they seem to be the most unique/least imitable.
I could probably make a good case for any of the bands though.
And B.A. (Baracus )

I'm as indecisive as someone could possibly be. There's no way in hell I'd be able to make up my mind, considering those are all bands I love.

I would pick Fantomas since there is nothing else like them nor could anyone else be like them.
Baracus.

Aaaahh that is an evil poll.
I'll go with Led Zeppelin, the perfect blend of musical talent IMO, Jimmy Page, the amazing guitarist who can turn his hand to just about any style of music, John Bonham - his technical accuracy is seconds to none (Yet you include Neil Peart on your list, like i say its an evil list), John Paul Jones Bass sound is simple yet effective and of course Mr Plant's unique vocal styling adds to the blend of originality.
Oh! and Mr. T because he can throw helluva far.

Why do people do that? Name bands that aren't on the list.
There's a list for a reason. It's surely not that hard to stick to it.
Bonham's technical ability isn't the greatest. There are many better.

Title of the thread says "most skilled band," not "most skilled band out of these choices." Besides, I already named Rush as my choice out of the list.

They're very good at their instruments, but to me they seem to fit the scenario of "just four good players ignoring each other."
Maybe it's just me though.

Well it says most skilled band then offers a choice.
Either way, no harm done.

To add to that, Korri said JPJ's bass is simple and effective.
Geddy's bass is technical and effective.
