The band consists of Thom Yorke (lead vocals, guitar, piano, keyboards), Jonny Greenwood (lead guitar, keyboards, other instruments), Colin Greenwoood (bass guitar), Phil Selway (drums), and Ed O'Brien (guitar). Wow! I'm shocked that Radiohead is below Muse. Muse is very good, but Radiohead is way more creative. They are one of the best there is, there was, and will ever be.
Radiohead is the best of both worlds (rock and electronic). Just listen to OK Computer, A Moon Shaped Pool (which also has orchestral-influenced songs), Kid A, or In Rainbows. Their other albums are pretty good too, even Pablo Honey.
Why isn't this higher? Listen to OK Computer and Kid A, people. These are the greatest albums ever made in electronic rock.
Celldweller is a Detroit, Michigan-based electronic rock project by multi-musician Klayton. Klayton creates a hybrid fusion of digital and organic elements: designed soundscapes that take cues from electronic genres like drum and bass, electro, and dubstep, woven together with aggressive rock/metal... read more Celldweller is my favorite musician. He is underrated, and people should listen to him. His songs have more electronic sound than rock sound, but he still has epic guitar sounds. His music is also the perfect balance of calm and aggressive. Some of his songs that I recommend are "Eon," "Switchback," and "Own Little World." This guy should at least be in the top 5.

Not a band, but an awesome music artist. Actually, the best music artist ever.
I can go on about how good he is because he is the best. Basically, to give you a good image of him, he can sing like an angel but he can also scream like a demon. His songs are a balance between calm and aggressive. -LitSavage
