Supergroups are a curious thing and they often have a habit of dividing the room. Many will see the idea of combining members of prominent bands as positively exhilarating while others see it as vulgar. That said, there’s one thing that can’t be denied, vulgar or otherwise, there have been some incredible collective bands over the years. Ranging from bands that erupted for only a moment, causing headlines as they did to some of the stalwarts of rock ‘n’ roll, here we’ve picked out ten of our favourites.

A meeting of like-minded individuals is usually wholeheartedly celebrated but in the case of a supergroup which, above all else, is the crucible within which some of rock’s finest musicians have melded together, it is split. You can understand the hesitance to accept these bands, too. There have been some clinical and commercially driven collaborations over the years and they always feel horrendously forced, without potency or belief and lack any real spark because of it. Equally, sometimes supergroups offer artists a chance to flourish as they never have done before.
