83 Hard Rock Bands Better Than Kings X

As I promised in the brilliantly written blog Most Overrated, Underrated, Bands Of All Time in response to the revelation that Kings X came in at 83 on VH1's list of greatest hard rock bands of all time, I would write a blog listing 83 hard rock bands better than Kings X.

Opening for Jesus Chrysler.  Check that off the bucket list

The thing is.  Kings X isn't a bad band.  They are just overrated.  And yes, 83rd place on a stupid TV show poll designed to fill airspace is overrating them.  For the purpose of being scientifical and obnoxious I did it in alphabetical order. Once I got to 83 I had only reached Megadeth.  M.  Halfway through the alphabet. One could logically deduce that there may be as many as 166 bands better than Kings X.  I doubt they are anybody's short list.  It also means they were spared the indignity of Nickelback appearing on this list.  Anyway.  Here you go.  83 hard rock bands better than Kings X.  In alphabetical order.
