For the first real post, I'm gonna bring up one of my favorite bands, Dream Theater. Ever since I've started listening to them I can't seem to get enough. All the members went to some fancy music school or other, and it shows. They play the shit out of their instruments and it melds together into an awesome sound. Each album has a slightly different sound to it as well which keeps the music sounding fresh (unlike some bands like Evergray that sound exactly the same always, but I'll get to them later). From the opera-esque album "Metropolis Pt, 2: Scenes from a Memory" to the heavier sounds of "Train of Thought" they always manage to sound fucking awesome. They also have a history of covering other bands, and while I'm not quite sure how I feel about that, as they have their own unique sound and when they apply it to other songs it doesn't always work out in my opinion, those shits are still beast. Listen to the medleys they arranged on "A Change of Seasons" if you don't believe me. I highly recommend everyone check them out.
EDIT: New DT album out and added. ADTOE is awesome.
Uploading is being gay so I'm just gonna use some found links. I intend to have proper uploads later.
