I have to once again take the diplomatic approach and go with two different list here, one being my opinion and preference... and the other being they way they influenced the world of music over the years.

My top ten over History:

The Beatles
U2
The Rolling Stones
Pearl Jam
Pink Floyd
The Who
The Doors
Nirvana
Bruce Springstein
Metallica

My personal favorites:

U2
Flickerstick
Dredge
Tonic
Collective Soul
Pearl Jam
Pat McGee
Howie Day
Porcupine Tree
Lifehouse

There's really no order here, plus there's still alot of sick bands, but what with there only being ten spots I chose some I thought were influential.

I don't see what all the fuss is about Stone Temple Pilots, I've got two of their albums (Purple and Tiny Music) and they're decent but nothing special. Also I can't stand Pearl Jam, although I like Matt Cameron.

Iron Maiden
Metallica
AC/DC
REM
Aerosmith
Lynyrd Skynard
