Fleetwood Mac?

Pretty much wrote the book on drug and alcohol abuse, dysfunctional working relationships and rock'n'roll excess.

*EDIT*
Oh, and their music wasn't bad either.

Pink Floyd by a mile and why is The who not on the list? never heard of One Direction with Coldplay, Oasis and the stone Roses being pretty insignificant in the bigger picture of British bands.
