1) Iron Maiden
2) Queen
3) Judas Priest
4) Bon Jovi
5) Halestorm
6) Meat Loaf
7) Dream Theater
8) Electric Light Orchestra
9) Firewind
10) Def Leppard

These are the main 10 bands that I listen to a lot of their songs frequently. Honourable mentions to The Darkness as I've got into them a lot recently. Had Black Tide not decided to become BFMV2 and stayed the way they were in their first album they'd probably be on the list.
 
Iron Maiden are in a league of their own . For me it is " Iron Maiden and the other bands"
Anyway:
Black Sabbath (with Dio)
My Dying Bride
Judas Priest
Dark Angel
eighties' Slayer
Hellhammer/Celtic Frost .
Motorhead
 
1. Hardcore Superstar - Dreamin' in a Casket
2. Dokken - Under Lock and Key
3. Iron Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death
4. Europe - Secret Society
5. The Darkness - Last of our Kind

After having listened to The Darkness' latest album Last of our Kind almost every day since it was released in June, they have to be included here.

Accept
Cheap Trick
Mr. Big
Van Halen
Blaze Bayley

Top 4 is always same:

1. Iron Maiden
2. Megadeth
3. Dream Theater
4. Testament

Love the first three. Never heard the fourth (but of course heard of it). Skolnick's Trio's fun to listen to, though. What's Testament's good entry album? Not necessarily best, just... the first to know? :D
