1969:
Led Zeppelin's "Heartbreaker" is said to have reached 130 dB (SPL) observed by a team of participants at the American Speech–Language–Hearing Association.[3] Daniel Kreps of Rolling Stone argues that "Whole Lotta Love" established Led Zeppelin's reputation as one of the loudest bands of their time.

As far as I know, it hasn't been broken yet.
Your best bet to find out is to e-mail the people at Guiness Book. They'll know for sure.
BTW, Hanson also, in 2005, broke Australia's record for loudest concert.

If I had to take a wild guess, I would think that it would have to be a band where their main demographic would be chicks, since they are extremely shrill and can reach unheard of pitches. Hanson is not at all hard to believe. I was thinking some boyband or justin beiber.
