31. Blondie

You can imagine that a woman doesn’t have it quite so easy in the world of rockers. But the new wave band brought a breath of fresh air to the scene with front woman Debbie Harry. The band, which was founded in the 70s, made the transition from the dominant punk music to new wave music. They produced many electro-inspired hits.

The band’s best-known hits include songs such as “One Way or Another”, “Call Me” and “Heart of Glass”. The band’s music continued to evolve and in 1978, when the band’s third studio album was released, more and more sounds of disco, punk, pop and experimental music were heard. The fresh beats and melodic lyrics still enchant fans today.

30. Pearl Jam

Only a few bands from the so-called grunge era have survived. One of them is Pearl Jam. Together with bands such as Alice in Chains and Nirvana, the band founded in the early 1990s shaped the Seattle grunge scene. Few bands from this genre have been able to win over the masses like Pearl Jam.

They have sold over 85 million albums worldwide. The album “Ten” was just the beginning and initially sold very slowly. That was soon to change. Since then, Pearl Jam have been known for many more successful singles, albums and live performances.
