This.

Rock is too broad of a term. It can include King Crimson and Metallica and everything in between.

Rammstein was my lullaby for a few years, I guess I will let loyalty take over and chose them over a numerous amount of awesome bands.

Rammstein is a good band, although I don't understand German. I'm leaning on some old school Metallica right now and maybe some ACDC. I can't decide, the range to too big.

I always wondered, what does ACDC stand for?

(Google exists, but I would rather engage in a conversation)

The official and correct reason of the name is that the Young brother's sister read the letters "AC/DC" from her mother's sewing machine. AC and DC are both electrical symbols meaning "Alternating Current" and "Direct Current". And since the band was (and still is) a band that uses electric guitars and plays loud, volumous, rock'n'roll, those symbols fitted the band very well.

So when you say "really", I guess that you refer to the rumors that the letter's true meaning is "After Christ the Devil Comes", "Anti Christ / Devil's Children" etc etc etc but that is surely not their intentions.

Alternating Current and Direct Current.

Few of my friends told me the "After Christ the Devil Comes" theory, I doubted that it was true, thanks for clearing it up for me.

The top artists chart there is pretty accurate. I have no particular favorite, however.

Personally I like The Who the best.
I just like so many of their songs.

Also, The Who has Keith Moon (Drums) and John Entwistle (Bass) who are both epic. Not to say Roger Daltry (Lead Vocals) or Pete Townshend (Lead Guitar) suck, they just aren't on the same level in with their singing/guitar playing. Pete is a good song writer though.
