R.I.P. Rock

You have 10 seconds to name a rock band from the last 25 years that is both critically acclaimed and culturally relevant. Please note that commercial success is not synonymous with cultural relevance.

Impossible Mode: No Nirvana.

Oh wait, you can't.

Please note:
>The Strokes, Arctic Monkeys, Queens of the Stone Age, The Mars Volta, Franz Ferdinand, The Smashing Pumpkins, Oasis, Bloc Party, The Libertines, Blur, Pulp, Suede, and Interpol are not culturally relevant, all of them are fad artists associated with a certain 3-5 year timespan with no real longevity or standing cultural relevancy. You're not going to hear their music being played at a high school dance or have a large number of normies sharing them on Facebook the way you would a contemporary hip hop artist like Drake or Kendrick Lamar
>Jack White is not a culturally relevant artist. Seven Nation Army may be a culturally relevant track but having only one culturally relevant track indicates a lack of longevity and thus a lack of cultural relevance as artists.
>Radiohead's praise comes from the fact that they "destroyed" rock music and became a primarily electronic act. Their success is evident of rock's death, not continued relevance
>Greta Van Fleet are one of the most openly mocked artists around right now
>Muse, Foo Fighters, Coldplay, Tool, Kings of Leon, The Black Keys, Pearl Jam, Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Blink-182, Brand New, Taking Back Sunday, Mumford & Sons, and Red Hot Chili Peppers are not critically acclaimed.
>King Gizzard, The Flaming Lips, Sufjan Stevens, Tame Impala, The National, The Hold Steady, Dinosaur Jr, Deerhunter, Mac DeMarco, Porcupine Tree, Beach House, Ween, Titus Andronicus, Bon Iver, Pixies, Spoon, Pavement and Modest Mouse are far too niche to be considered culturally relevant. This is also true for all metal.
>R.E.M., Bruce Springsteen, and U2 have not been critically acclaimed in the last 25 years.
>LCD Soundsystem and Arcade Fire are not rock bands

Nah i'm good

Twenty One Pilots.

Cultural relevancy outside of pop music is a meme

RADIOHEAD BITCH

>Green Day and Red Hot Chili Peppers are not critically acclaimed

That's not true though

>You're not going to hear their music being played at a high school dance
>This is how we define cultural relevancy

modest mouse has gotten radio play on top40 radio stations and plenty of "normies shares on facebook" I don't know what the fuck you're on about, just as an example.

cont.
just to be clear, I mostly agree with what you're saying, but your criteria are fucking retarded

This. American Idiot was their most critically acclaimed record, and was the logical conclusion to Punk Rock. Literally everyone dressed up in black and red because of them, and bumped Holiday, American Idiot and Boulevard of Broken Dreams constantly.

RHCP's BSSM is considered one of the greatest Rock records of all time, and that, along with Californication and By The Way are in the top 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, both in Rolling Stone and AcclaimedMusic.

Once more, my post , Imagine Dragons, and Weezer.
