As "bands" would feature more than only the name of a solo artist, my favorites would be ...

1. Metallica
2. AC/DC
3. Aerosmith (back again after the 70's)
4. Huey Lewis and the News
5. Def Leppard
6. Hall and Oates
7. Duran Duran

9. U2
10. Men Without Hats (Yes, I thought that "Safety Dance" was VERY original for its time)

Honorable mentions for creativity and distinctive sound would also go to the Talking Heads, the B-52's, and John Cafferty & the Beaver Brown Band.
