Any old bands before rock got cool?!
Question: In the 40s? Well, Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys were a western swing band, but they are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for their early influence on rock and roll. The Maddox Brothers and Rose should be, because they were rockabilly before there was rockabilly.

EDIT: Just Jazz bands. Check out Miles Davis- Kind of Blue
it takes a couple of listens to get into it, but it is amazing. Recorded in 1959 and stands up against anything recorded since. if you want to go back to the 40's, try Glen Miller.
red hot chilly peppers, MXPX, The living end, blink 182, no doubt, the smiths, morrissey, foo fighters, nirvana, save ferris, lit, stray cats, old school green day....
