What are your 10 top ongoing bands?

So I guess by that I mean:
- Have released an album in the last 4 years
- Have not announced their breakup/permanent hiatus
- Have released more than one album

Red Sparowes
Russian Circles
Mumford and Sons (breaks the one album rule but I don't care that one album is incredible)
Dropkick Murphys
Flogging Molly
4-way tie (I couldn't decide): Mogwai, Gojira, God is an Astronaut, Rosetta

You asked specifically for bands, so I didn't include any solo artists (like our old pal Mr T). And I included De La because they're still working and recording even if they haven't released a full album for a while.

Again this is straight off my mp3 player.


Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Textures
Seasick Steve & The Level Devils
Mastodon
Gojira
The Beastie Boys
The Roots
Opeth
De La Soul
The Black Keys

In no order:
Dev
Motorhead
Iron Maiden
Slayer (walking a fine line though)
Anthrax
Nile
Deicide
Marduk
Ozzy
Sunn O)))

Hard not to include bands that broke up but later re-united (Dev is an exception as he takes many forms).
