The Stone Roses were one of the most impactful bands to come out of The Manchester (or 'Madchester') scene. Heavily influencing such Brit pop phenomenons as Oasis and Blur (amongst others). They had a unique marriage of 60's psychedelic pop and dance-able rhythms. Their first, s/t album is a renowned classic. They followed it up with only one record and disbanded. They are still very influential to many independent artists today and often included in lists of best albums of all time.
In this live video for "Made of Stone" you can see Ian Brown's temper being tested when the TV station has a power out in the middle of their song.
This one is a more flattering video for "Waterfall"
