The Smiths, The Cure, and New Order.
A little further down the line, I'd say Jawbreaker, The Get Up Kids and Jets to Brazil. Oh, and The Promise Ring.

I couldn't give two shits about the music you crazy kids listen to now-a-days, with your xXemoxscreamoxlunchboxxzombiecoreXx shit.

Congrats.
No offense, but you can't take a 13 year old seriously when they say they like The Cure.
Most of them have only really listened to "Love Song" and thought "Hey! I can totally relate to loving someone unconditionally! I'm in pain, too!"
When really, the only reason they listened to that song in the first place is because their favorite band names The Cure as one of the main influences, even though they don't sound AT ALL like The Cure.

Then again, maybe it doesn't apply to you, maybe it does. It sure as hell did to me when I was 13.

That's still only one song sweetie.
For the record, I take fandoms seriously and challenge them all the time. Please don't take this as an attack.

I thought this would be interesting because my answer involved an individual artist, not a band.
so...

I made a composite band,

Al Di Meola- guitarist
Marco Minnemann- drummer
Les Claypool- bassist or Melissa Auf der Maur (because she's a lady and plays bass, that's just plain attractive to me)

I couldn't think of a vocalist...
and I couldn't choose between zombie Chopin or zombie Brahms for piano

so I will just scratch that idea and go with,
The Beatles
hands down, best band- ever.

If you're talking straight up skill, that band is Dream Theater.
However, I'm taking this as what my favorite band is, and that is Drive Like Jehu.

i'll jump on the bandwagon and chime in to say the smiths, but i also think the apples in stereo and boards of canada are close runner-ups.

I totally agree with the Smiths but what about Joy Division and Sunny Day Real Estate... For me personally it is all about American Nightmare
Wes Eisold lyrically blows my mind and that band was hectic in the best way

I used to have a giant picture of Ian Curtis on my wall and played Love Will Tear Us Apart and Warsaw on top of a school drunk frequently when I was fourteen or fifteen, so you can probably imagine how I feel about Joy Division
