Depends on your definitions of “rock” and “best”, but the only true Louisiana ones I can think of that hit # 1 on Billboard were John Fred (with his Playboys) and Johnny Rivers (guess which one; he had several top 10s.) The Killer had some #1s, but on the country charts.
Then again there’s that chick from Kentwood who was quite popular (refer back to my original disclaimer.)
Broadening the genres creates separate “best” threads for funk, soul, jazz, country (AND western); all of which are well populated with Louisiana artists. And rappers.
Personal pick: Isoceles Popsicle.

This has a cult following among 60s Garage collectors

The Radiators are better than any band I've seen posted so far.

The Residents (Shreveport)
quote:Wiki also claims one of the members attended LA Tech
The artists who became the Residents met in high school in Shreveport, Louisiana, in the early 1960s. Around 1965, they began making their first amateur home tape recordings and making art together with a number of friends. In 1966, intending to join the flourishing hippie movement, they headed west for San Francisco, but when their truck broke down in San Mateo, California, they decided to remain there.

Too bad The Nozzles didn't leave any recorded material. The Shitdogs were a close second.

Zebra, with Acid Bath an honorable mention.
