Obvious choices, all. I am trying to branch out, though…Marcy Playground and The Go! Team (check them out if you’ve never heard of them, they’re great) are a couple of my current favorites.
Lots more… but these are always at the top.

That was not easy and will probably change by tomorrow with the exception of 1+2.
There are many more but these are pretty consistently in my top 5 these days.
Well, they weren’t called The Band without good reason.
Those don’t represent the whole spectrum of what I love, though. I could go on and on and you’d have a better understanding of what my tastes are like.
Hard to pick five, so in no particular order:
Belle and Sebastian
Velvet Underground
The Magnetic Fields
Starlet
The Hepburns
Like so many people, I can hardly pick only five favorites.
I think I’ll pick 5 bands that roughly approximate the spectrum of music I listen to most.
Led Zeppelin
Metallica
Red Hot Chili Peppers
The Rolling Stones
Stone Temple Pilots
…so basically, most of my favorite music sounds at least a little bit like one of these artists’ music. To actually pick five bands that I’d claim to like more than all others, well, would just be wrong. After all, my library currently has over 700 artists in it (even if almost half of those artists have a mere one song therein).
Now I know this is really, really, really sad but I was going to list Girls Aloud.
My top five changes from day to day…but the five that are always near the top would be:
Turbonegro
The Cramps
Electric Frankenstein
The Dead Boys
The Dictators (DFFD!)
Zoe could be my twin! But I’ve started listening to more early jazz stuff now, so my list has changed a little over the past year or so.
…but there are so many more! These probably aren’t even my top five, just the ones I’ve listened to most recently.
but maybe 2 or 3 of those are constantly changing.
