Production is top notch quality, and although Morello gets lots of time in the spotlight, Tim and Brad are one of the best ryhtm sections in rock history, period. Besides, they were really big back in the day. I was born in 1990, so I didn´t really catch RATM on their peak, but I think that maybe with Audioslave they got bigger?

Blur are actually one of the most successful and influential bands of the last 30 years here in the UK and are held in much higher regard than Gorillaz. The difference is Blur were pretty much exclusively marketed to British people and so they didn’t have much influence overseas. Gorillaz may have more album sales worldwide but Blur are considered icons of the 90s Britpop movement.

I was getting ready to type the same thing but figured I should check the comments first. I agree.

Funny that you mentioned Blur in relation to "Girls and Boys", I thought in the US Blur were only known for "Song 2". For the record, in Britain they were the second biggest guitar band of the 90s, and shaped the Britpop that dominated here in the mid 90s.

Absolute favorite supergroup of mine lately is Killer Be Killed that consists of Greg Puciato (Dillinger Escape Plan), Max Cavalera (Soulfly), Troy Sanders (Mastodon) and most recently Ben Koller (Converge). The two albums the band has released are just spot on amazing and having Sanders, Puciato and Cavalera trade off vocals even on one song still works great. Check out their song "Dream Gone Bad" to see what I mean.

Another side project I thought was awesome was “Down”. Considering Phil Anselmo came out with their first album at the peak of Pantera, it would obviously be compared greatly to Pantera. With that being said I had my doubts about it being a huge Pantera fan. But I was shocked at how much I loved it. All the albums to me are good.

Some Honorable mentions not listed here (IMO): The Almost: Aaron Gillespie's (underoath) side project. As a drummer I enjoyed warming up by playing along to Southern Weather. Silvertooth: Side Project? sort of? For folks that love Silberstein and Beartooth, you'll love this. Silverstein started a limited time only side project, featuring the entire band Beartooth. May their short run live on through youtube forever. A Perfect Circle: This is what you get when Tool's touring guitar tech has a "hold my beer" moment & catches the eyes of the front man himself, Maynard James Keenan. This band was arguably the most successful of any side project to date. The Damned Things: Ever wonder what happens if you cross Fall Out Boy, Anthrax, Every Time I Die, and Alkaline Trio? Well, now you have an answer. With two full studio albums already under its belt, it surprising that no one has heard of this group. I personally really like the sound they've produced. You could describe it as Rockabilly Metal. Not to dissimilar from the sound of He Is Legend. Their latest single "Cells" really drives home this sound.

I doubt he's actually racist though seeing how he sang about it in a negative perspective in 5 minutes alone "Your God's a racist tool" it kinda sounds like he's not for it. From what I gather he was being called out by skinheads in the audience and he was kinda mocking them because he has the look but isn't really one of them. It sounds probable at least, but who knows these days, people have gone down some very strange political roads for god only knows what reason.

hey man, love the video, but if i can offer a quick correction: you mentioned Joey's playing in murderdolls being more straightforward than his playing in slipknot. that would most likely be due to the style, sure, but also because Joey was playing guitar in murderdolls, not sitting behind the kit :) that honor would originally go to Ben Graves, and later, Racci Shay and Jason West for a short time towards the end of the reunion tour. sorry not sorry, massive Joey (RIP) and slipknot fan, so i couldn't help myself, haha. thanks again for the great vid!

Came here to say the same. Killer be Killed is what a supergroup should sound like.

Down is the ultimate side project/supergroup. Nola is legitimately one of the best records of all time in my opinion, and it’s interesting because the band was formed before a lot of the members’ full time bands.

Love your videos Finn. Don’t know if you’d consider a different style of video looking into the influence a producer has on artistic projects and careers? Was thinking of Rick Rubin with Audioslave, but there’s Steve Albini (e.g. Nirvana’s In Utero) and Brendan O’Brien among many others. Also if you have caps in your merch can it be shipped to the UK?

The Adventure by Angels… may be one of the best songs ever. It just gives you such a feeling. Also Corey Taylor’s black eyes blue is also an incredible song. However the rest I couldn’t get into.

Nice video! Hope you do a follow-up. One of the first bands that comes to my mind is Six Feet Under. I enjoyed them as a side project, and their first 3 or 4 albums, but Barnes' vocals are totally gone now.

I loved murderdolls. It was just fun "cooler" version of misfits. I remember laughing so much because it was def a band I never could play out loud caz it was such dumb lyrics. Me first is legit one of my favv bands.

I remember I fell in love with the Murderdolls back when I was a kid. I was also a Slipknot fan and being that there wasn't google back then, it took me up until I was a teenager to realize that Joey was the guitarist. Still to this day 20 years later I still love them. I jam Murderdolls every once in a while and it takes me back to 5th grade lmao!

Great points about Blink. I do feel like their stuff with Matt was awesome though. Im grateful we got two albums with Matt rather than nothing without Tom just because Tom didn’t feel like being in the band. Tom’s latest Angels album was rad though!

A couple of interesting additions to this list could have been Maynard James Keenan's side projects: one the one hand, you have A Perfect Circle, a supergroup that achieved such level of sucess and artistry it almost rivaled Tool... and the you have Puscifer, where not even collaborations with Milla Jovovich managed to make it not suck.

@bananaman4589

Personally I find Isles and Glaciers to be boring. It’s very slow and should be full of bangers.

DRUGS is supposed to be back in the studio right now I think with a whole new album coming out this year. I'm pumped for it. I would also like to hear your take on Isles and Glaciers which is probably the biggest super group in emo with Craig Owens, Johnny Craig and Vic Fuentes all on vocals.

If Velvet Revolver is your thing I'd like to recommend Army of Anyone. It was Richard Patrick from Filter and the DeLeo bros from STP. They only out out 1 album but it really is STP with Patrick on vocals. Kind of a nice mix if those 2 bands appeal to you. If 80s guitar virtuoso rock and 80s stadium stadium rock is your thing then check out Chickenfoot. That supergroup had Sammy Hagar (ex-Van Halen vocalist), Michael Anthony on bass (also ex-Van Halen), Joe Satriani on guitar, and Chad Smith on drums (Red Hot Chili Peppers). It's exactly what you'd expect :P Also Chad Smith had a wild side project called Chad Smith's Bombastic Meatbats. That album was a trip. I'd also like to give an honorable mention to Time Lapse Consortium, a side project of Incubus. Basically the whole band was involved, Boyd's vocals only appeared on 2 tracks that are covers of Incubus songs. TLC was widely considered Ben Kenney's audition for the band to replace Dirk Lance.

“Damien” from Blur lol. Makes me think of how I used to call Willem Dafoe “William”

If you do a sequel, I’d add Isles & Glaciers and the sound of animals fighting. You could also add The Word Alive as Craig’s side project that became huge.

I'm reminded of that Roadrunner United collab that came out a while back. There were some bangers on that album.

I loved the DRUGS album, and looking forward to the new album. I didn’t like chiodos either. At least not with Craig in it. I liked them for one album, and it was the album called illuminaudio

Damnocracy really was “What if we make a band out of 5 guys who would’ve tried to kick each other’s asses in the 80s?”

I'm surprised you didn't mention DOWN (Crowbar, Pantera, Eyehategod, COC), definitely one of the most talented metal supergroups and their first album, NOLA, is an all-time sludge/stoner classic.

If you do another of these could you include Isles and Glaciers? Another Craig Owens side project/supergroup with Vic from Pierce the Veil and the notorious Jonny Craig. Lyrics were lacking but I thought the psychedelic/electronic experimental sound was pretty unique. Would've liked to hear more

Son of Sam is one that could/should have been included here. The first album had Davey Havok from AFI, Steve Zing and London May from Samhain, and Todd Youth (RIP) from Agnostic Front. Really good, underrated deathpunk.
