They top my Top 5, followed by The Stone Roses, The Beatles, Pink Floyd and Dire Straits.
All comments welcome....

I don't know how avid of a Tool fan you are... but they disbanned and the lead singer is now the lead singer from an equally good (NOT the best) band called A Perfect Circle.... I think a better band than Tool honestly with the same concept... and although highly influenced by Tool... would be Chevelle... but I would never suggest them for the best band in the entire world... Another good band that just made a name is 10 Years... they've got a Tool sound too... but once again... I'm not going to call them the best band ever... But yeah... I'm sure lots of people have heard of Tool... they just don't hold as high of an opinion about them as you do...
