Nine Inch Nails, far and away #1 for me
Tool
The White Stripes
Sublime
Slightly Stoopid
G. Love & Special Sauce
Ministry
Eric Clapton
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Nirvana
Alice in Chains
Gorillaz
ZZ Top
Led Zeppelin
Pink Floyd
Marilyn Manson (but nothing after antichrist superstar)
Bob Marley
...and any decent blues/rock band (A good one nobody has heard of is Too Slim and the Taildraggers)
And lately I've just started getting into Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, and some newer reggae stuff like Richie Spice.

QFT!
Though my favorite NIN stuff is Broken & Downward Spiral.
My first live show I saw was NIN & David Bowie in '95 and haven't missed an instate show since (which is a total of about 5-6 shows). Saw him/them two days in a row last year. Can't wait for the Year Zero tour to come by.

I was a huge Public Enemy fan but their latest stuff really doesn't do it for me. Fuck copyright laws. Terminator X's samples where the shiz.
I really like the Go! Teams first album and I saw them life last January. They were OK and the singer has real good stage presence but the sound was too muddled but that could have been a one off. Their latest album is a little bit flat. What do you think?
Oops and i forgot one very important band in my line up.
