Re: Top 5 bands of a genre
The only Dubstep or Post Dub technically I guess - if you want to call it that - I have heard so far that I liked at all is SBTRKT and Lindsey Stirling.

True. I left more than a few out. I was just working off the top of my head.

Re: Top 5 bands of a genre
I wouldn't put Refused in the top 5 either, but Germs definitely lose out to Dead Kennedys or MDC.
Also, we're going High Fidelity on this biz.
Top five album openers... for marking the end of a relationship.
Go!
(I'll throw mine up in a minute)

Re: Top 5 bands of a genre
I'm not positive about my top 5 in punk but I'm leaning towards:
Bad Brains
Refused
Stiff Little Fingers
Minor Threat
(Can't figure out the fifth one, I've added and then removed like a dozen bands...)
Modern/Experimental Classical
Hauschka
Fjordne
Ólafur Arnalds
Johann Johannsson
Aaron Martin
Bad Brains
Refused
Stiff Little Fingers
Minor Threat
