I have that problem with any Top List requests, and I've often wondered if people that seem to so confidently list their Top Whatever really are confident with what they chose, or are just listing things that come to mind. It doesn't keep me up at night, mind you, just curious. Anyways....to the question... Up until recently I could only do a Top 4, and the Top 4 had been that way for quite some time. 1.Pink Floyd 2. King Crimson 3. Tool 4. Kyuss I had been hoping that 5th band would come along and round out the Top 5, but I could always argue that Band B deserved that spot as much as Band A. Then I picked up Portisheads latest album, 3rd, and fell completely head over heels in love. Since then I've listed Portishead as number 5, but time will tell if they remain. After that, it's much too difficult to choose. Sorry for rambling! :D
