I really liked ADF at first - but it gets a bit samey after a while.

I prefer "proper" dub like Augustus Pablo, the Scientist, early Sly and Robbie, almost anything recorded at King Tubby's, etc.

If you prefer a more "modern" sound to dub, then the On-U archives have loads of really well crafted dub, from Dub Syndicate and Prince Far-I, Mark Stewart and the Mafia etc. under Adrian Sherwood's expert production.

Check out the samples;

I used to like Qotsa but I listened to them little much, maybe, but anyway nowadays I bored with their songs in less than a minute. So I voted for SOAD. I like Tenacious too but they just arenīt even close to soad.
I like my eggs boiled and thatīs it!

I picked APC, but would have gone for SOAD. But due to SOADs' increasingly watered down and poppy music (BYOB, anyone?), I overlooked them. Their first 2 or 3 albums were decent and mildly proggy in places (Streamline on Steal This Album) but this Mesmerise/Hypnotise bollocks is ridiculous. Most of their fans are little mini-mosher twats as well.
I'm so prog, I clap in 9/8

Coldplay. Just solid, atmospheric Britpop. Don't like all these metal/punk bands much, either.

Life is like an avantgarde play because tuna.
