Radiohead, NIN, Bjork, Beck, Einsturzende Neubauten, Kraftwerk, and Aphex Twin would be my top bands that I think are really really really good. I've seen Radiohead, Neubauten, and NIN in concert, and I'll be seeing Bjork in about 4 days. I've heard something about an S.F. Aphex Twin show in January, and I just hope I get tickets on time...
I like some other 'lesser' stuff too, from Eminem to Chumbawumba (hey, they did a lot more than that one Tubthumber song, and they've got some inteligent things to say!). Right now I'm listening to Bloodhoundhang.
Lately, I've been getting into hip-hop stuff like DELTRON 3030 and other fine works featuring Dan the Automator and Del tha Funky Homosapien. And Squarepusher, too. Squarepusher is great.
