The only band I can think of from Iowa that would fit into your list is Slipknot.

To disagree, one doesn't have to be disagreeable.

Dude, Chicago!

Are they actually from Chicago though? I have no idea...
TON of bands from Chicago.

And I can't think of any... :lol: Soil is the only one that immediately jumps out at me and they're decent but not as good as other bands that have come out of Chicago.

Missouri is a tough one. Several good lesser-known bands, but no clear stand-out. I nominate The Bottle Rockets. Or The In? :wink:

I updated the first post with some of the bands that I thought were pretty solid choices. Some of these states are going to be tough to decide, like California. Please provide arguments for why you think a band is the best one in these tightly contested states, like CA.

I still like the Beach Boys for Cali. Huge body of work, so many hits, influential later work like Pet Sounds, and they are just a signature California band.

I'll throw in another contender for Florida - Lynyrd Skynyrd
