I'd say TOOL. Not to take away anyting from the other bands (except the Deftones who couldn't suck more live) but TOOL has consistently made music their own way while at the same time progressing as a band and the art form they create. Their members all play equal roles and the 4 unique roles create one massively ingenius sound. Their live show is amazing and the albums are always intellectual while as balls out as possible.
