Nice choices. I would've included Beatles solo careers, but in my opinion putting down The Beatles is enough to say that you enjoy the work of all four.

If Brakusaetsya has replied here, I think I should, too

1. Opeth. One of the most talented bands I've ever heard. Various kinds of music (heavy mostly), but all their songs are very deep, touching and professional. My favorite albums are Blackwater Park and My Arms, Your Hearse.
2. Nightwish. Another well-known example of brilliantly done metal music.
3. Everclear. I have only one album of them (Good Time For A Bad Attitude) - but God knows how many times I listened to it and how many times it pulled me out of bad mood. Thanks to those guys for that!
4. Enigma. Very good music, distracting and relaxing one. Goes well with the worktime...
5. Pagan Reign. A very talented Russian band.

There are other great bands as well (Metallica, Shadow Gallery, Pink Floyd, Dream Theater, Novembre etc), so those numbers above aren't something static. Everything changes... *goes listening to Bloodbath - Bathe in Blood*

EDIT: Offtopic... Ygg, why you've deleted your post once again? There was absolutely nothing wrong with it.
Please, I ask you to be less uncertain about your posts, every time someone deletes their words, I feel that the forum looks unfriendly to them.

Ah!   The good old favourite band topic...got to be done!
OK, here are my ten, they're in no particular order as I can't rank bands, they all have their own unique qualities and that makes them hard to compare.

-REM
-The Who
-Led Zeppelin
-Pearl Jam
-Crowded House (and I'd include anything by Neil Finn/Finn brothers in there too)
-Midnight Oil
-Idlewild
-Bloc Party
-The Byrds (well, their pre-country & western stuff)
-Rammstein (yeah...I know...)

Rock on...

There's no tragedy in my actions. Everything I do I do more or less certain, so to delete some spam by mine was not so bad thing. Sorry for making you feel uncomfortable. And - what the Hell? - I was going to write about Pagan Reign's album "Древние Воины" (Ancient Warriors), but in the last moment I've decided to replace it with another band.

I'll split my list into two:

5 Bands that are "classics" and will always have a place in my earth despite i don't listen to them a lot recently

1) Opeth
2) Agalloch
3) Anathema
4) Dark Tranquillity
5) Pantera

Honorable mention for Novembre, their music always peeking in my life lingering in the air like the scent of a beautiful girl that doesnt want to let be seen...

and 5 bands that are my favourite listens in the last months:

1) Threshold
2) Machine Head
3) Strapping Young Lad
4) Meshuggah
5) Dream Theater

Honorable mention for "Elio e le storie tese", Italian band that are as great with the instruments as funny with the lyrics. Like an Italian Weird Al, but with more intelligently funny lyrics and great musicianship (without sticking to a genre).

1: The Smashing Pumpkins
2: Billy Talent
3: Seether
4: Alter Bridge
5: Three Days Grace
6: Default

Hmm... Let's see... My top 10 favourite bands are:

1 - Linkin Park
2 - Simple Plan
3 - Avenged Sevenfold
4 - Skillet
