some good ones there

I'm a big fan of Guns N' Roses and Nirvana. Both were great!

I'm going to have to say the beatles, simply because none of the others would exist without them.

So where's The Clash...?

Oasis

Smashing Pumpkins, if you make D'arcy/Melissa Auf Der Maur male.

Moo double post

Pretty correct list in terms of influence and style. However, I think Judas Priest would be a better band for inclusion than the Beach Boys- Priest pretty much changed the face of metal, whereas the Beach Boys, as far as I'm concerned, were just a bunch of surfers who had a few hits and didn't achieve much outside of the USA.

I dont like the beach boys, but unfortunatly you are wrong, pet sounds(which i dont like) was the catalyst for the beatles moving into serious music, at the time it was something completely different, being soft and personal and almost childlike and by a male vocal group, they did create that very californian sound, but they moved on breifly, when brian wilson had a breakdown they went back to that sound because they had lost their creator.
And as for Good vibrations, 17 sessions, 6 months, 4 studios and cost more than the whole sargeant pepper album.
It was a huge progression in songwriting.
