Weekend Rock List: Sibling Bands

7/25/08, 4:17 pm EST

We’re going to see Ween tonight at Brooklyn’s McCarrren Pool, and while Dean Ween and Gene Ween aren’t actually brothers, but with the Jonas Brothers on the cover, it got us thinking about the best bands that do have siblings in them. Whether they’re leading the charge like the Gallagher boys in Oasis or setting the rhythm like the Greenwood brothers in Radiohead, let us know your picks for the best sibling bands, and on Monday we’ll tally the picks and reveal the list. And remember, the Ramones weren’t related. Here’s our picks:

• Oasis
• The Beach Boys
• Creedence Clearwater Revival
• Radiohead
• The Breeders
