I'll fill that one up for you.
Distance
Burial
Mala
Kode 9
Digital Mystikz
Hmmmm well considering I have only heard more mainstream dubstep, I just might have to look these bands up, the wifey unfortunately eats that shit up.
A good rule of thumb is to stick with the English ones.

Also, we're going High Fidelity on this biz.
Top five album openers... for marking the end of a relationship.

old-school San Francisco psychedelic bands:
1. Grateful Dead
2. Jefferson Airplane
3. Quicksilver Messenger Service
4. Santana--ignore the commercial crap from the last 20 years: Abraxas, III, and Caravanserai will blow your head off if you listen to them with open ears
5. Big Brother and the Holding Company--universally slated in 1967-68 for being out-of-tune, unprofessional, and generally not the tight soul-blues package the business wanted for Janis Joplin, they were actually a charmingly loopy ensemble with an astoundingly wild lead guitarist in James Gurley, possibly the craziest pure-sonics guy in the original scene. check his insane breaks on "Combination of the Two" and "Ball and Chain."

Ooooh. Prayer to God was the only constant in my list. (and, actually, an acoustic-y friend of mine just covered it as the last track on his record. Very different, but it totally works)
As of now:
1. Beck's The Golden Age
2. Shallac's Prayer To God
3. Dwarves's Back Seat of My Car
4. Eric Bourdon & War's Paint It Black Medley.
5. Del the Funky Homosapien - What Is A Booty?

Aside from B.B. King, who was born with the last name "King", the rest were all just honorifics or stage names.
