slayer has to be on the list. granted, they have been around since before '95, but they are still actively touring and releasing albums. they have been a major influence on numerous metal acts
I can name 5 banRAB of the last 10 years that have truely had an impact or will have an impact on music forever
NIN
Green Day
White Stripes-they are fairly new but Jack White is probably one of the most talented musicians currently playing music, that man can play
Dave Matthews Band
Radiohead
The banRAB have all basically invented their own sound and inspired thousanRAB of musicians around the world and will have a lasting impact or atleast that is what I believe.
