I'll go with my top 3

Breaking Benjamin - This band defines my roots as a 00s kid raised on Alt, Post Grunge and Nu Metal. Emotionally charged, melodic music with a metal kick to it

Balmorhea - This band represents my appreciation for traditional instruments, but also for experimental structures and textures

Rishloo - This band is an example of the perfect fusion of the previously listed attributes of my taste. I didn't have any way to make amends between what seemed like very separated music styles until I found Prog. This band was the first one of many and still might be my favorite band
