    I guess Metallica and Iron Maiden will always remain favourites, but I cannot really name five. Over the years, I have become more into albums than the band themselves.

Surprisingly hard to name a top five. It changes all the time really. Two months ago it would have been slightly different, and in two months time it will probably be different again.
Nevertheless,at this particular time, these five probably hold the top positions.
 
1. Genesis. (Always my favourites, but only from '70 - '77.)
 
2. Flower Kings. (Yes, I really do rate them that highly.)
 
3. Steve Hackett. (One of the most consistent artists of all. Hasn't released anything I don't like.)
 
4. Yes. (But again, only in their peak period, from their debut album through to GFTO.)
 
5. Rush. (Again, one of the most consistent bands. Maybe four albums I don't care for, but the rest are wonderful!)
 
But knocking on the door, and appearing in the top five from time to time are such suspects as:
 
Porcupine Tree
Pink Floyd
Pendragon
Kaipa
 
and occasionally...
 
 Marillion.Smile

I feel like I might have already posted on this awhile ago...but I'm in school and very bored so I'll post one again...
 
This is a really hard question, I discover new music so frequently but I think If I were to list the 5 bands that influenced me the most and after the longest time I still dig the most would be...
 
Camel (Pre Richard Sinclair)
The Beatles (65- 69)
Caravan (69-74)
Gong
Van Der Graaf Generator
 
 
Thats it...
 
 
 
 
Peace.
