The best composers in the history of rock.

If there are thousands of legendary songs in Rock and Metal, there must obviously be hundreds of great composers who created these masterpieces.

Therefore, this week we decided to list the best composers in history! And as if selecting only 11 icons wasn't already an almost impossible task, we also decided to allow the selection of names linked to Rock and Metal.

And precisely because it's so difficult to include all the names that come to mind in a list that only fits 11, many will miss legendary names. From Paul Simon to Dave Mustaine. From Jeff Hanneman to Frank Zappa. From Roger Waters to John Petrucci. From Bruce Springsteen to Paul Stanley. All of them (and many others) unfairly left out of our list.

Anyway, check out our list of the 11 best songwriters in the history of Rock and Metal, and leave your own list in the comments!

11. Neil Peart ( Rush )

10. Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin)

9. Pete Townshend (The Who)

08. Bob Dylan

7. David Bowie

06. James Hetfield (Metallica)

05. George Harrison (The Beatles)

04. Steve Harris (Iron Maiden)

03. Freddie Mercury (Queen)

02. John Lennon (The Beatles)

01. Paul McCartney (The Beatles)
