Sticking strictly to rock bands, I will say Joy Division, Pavement, Sonic Youth, Radiohead and 20 others that tie for fifth.

Joy Division?

Quit giving me reasons to continue lusting for you ;)

Going based off of iTunes plays and rock/semi-rock genres....

Elvis Costello, Hall & Oates, The Pogues, Velvet Underground, and.... Joy Division.
