Mine is Tool. Each member is incredible at what they do, and they were one of the bands that got me into the music I listen to today.

The Smiths or The Killers.

I don't know.. music is completely subjective to the listener.

Both bands are great songwriters, and filled with talented, trained, and creative musicians.

Both bands just do something for me. Listening to some of their songs just strikes emotion in me.

I really like The Killer's B-side, Sawdust. Tranquilize, Shawdowplay, Move Away, and the Romeo and Juliet cover are great.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra... if they can be rock. Not sure about the TC's defination of rock is, but these guy are rock in my book. Why are they my favorite? I love classical music (Mozart, Beethoven, you know) and these guys give it awesome guitar and stuff. Their live shows are also simply some of the best around.

Interesting choice. I guess they're a band. They've come near my town a couple times but I never got to go see them :(

Audioslave is not bad for me, especially during the Chris Cornell era.

Apart from that maybe Cream for Eric Clapton's amazing guitar work. I can't really think much now though.

Nine Inch Nails, since about 93 or 94, after seeing them in concert for the 1st time. With everything NIN is doing now it's great to be a NIN fan.

Rhapsody of Fire
Why?I love epic-metal,their Live performances are godlike,a lot better than the cd-versions.
The singer of the band,Fabio Lione,is the new Pavarotti according to many reviewers and fans.
Every member of the band is a talented one.
Erian's Mystical Rhymes part 1
Erian's Mystical Rhymes part 2
Take some time to watch those parts.It's really cool,although there is a possibility you won't like it :P.

Napster06

What's the "Chris Cornell era"? Surely all of Audioslave is a "Chris Cornell era"?

Anyway, it would probably be Pearl Jam for me, or Bruce Springsteen + E Street Band. And whilst I sort of like the Chili Peppers, I think they're new stuff is very stale and boring. They're a terrible live band as well.
