The Beatles. There's a lot of great bands to choose from, but the Beatles changed the pop music landscape like very few others did.

Sonic Boom Six and Velvet Revovler are the bands I enjoy most from the 2000's.

EDIT: Sorry, I'm to drunk to read.

From the 20th century, well, there was to many good bands to say really, couldn't choose one.

Historically, The Beatles are the best, but I prefer Led Zeppelin and The Jimi Hendrix Experience.

Almost forgot The Velvet Underground

Pink Floyd.

The Beatles were great, but are stupidly overrated in my eyes.

You are all looking way too late. Nat King Cole? Duke Ellington? Jelly Roll Morton? Benny Goodman? Artie Shaw? Count Basie? Miles Davis? Come on. Not all music is rock. Without jazz, rock wouldn't even exist.

Although I would like to commend Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones, Frank Zappa, Queen, The Who, Bob Seger, Aerosmith, Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne, AC/DC, Fleetwood Mac, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Alice Cooper, Pink Floyd, Judas Priest, Sex Pistols, Nirvana, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Metallica, Pearl Jam, Ramones, Blink-182, and Guns N Roses for their contributions to rock and metal.

Then there's the Pop/Motown classics: Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, The Temptations, The Four Tops, The Supremes, etc.

And although this will destroy any credibility my judgment has, some hip-hop groups have to be mentioned. NWA, Wu Tang Clan, Outkast, Public Enemy, A Tribe Called Quest, even the Gorillaz.

Of course now for daring suggest that anyone other than a guitarist has contributed to modern music, I'm liable to be mobbed.

For me it is between The Who and the Beastie Boys, and yes i realize that they are two radically different bands but i love em both.
