Yeah, Grateful Dead and Beach Boys are great choices. GD's "Dick's Picks" have changed the whole experience for a lot of people, even those of us who saw a lot of shows. Seems they were at their peak circa '72/'73. Beach Boys catalog up until approx 1971 is a treasure chest. I don't think Brian Wilson and the Wrecking Crew get the credit they deserve for brilliant use of the studio as an instrument.

I wish I'd thought of a lot of the bands others are mentioning ... The Clash, The Stranglers, Iggy ... oh yeah. One is just too few.  Thus ... also The Smiths.

even the later albums?? I cant get down with those. even over the edge starts to get tough for me half way through.
the only band I personally feel was consistant all throughout every release was rocket from the crypt.
in fact Ill go as far as to say that anything speedo has done during/after RFTC is flawless. not to mention the sheer volume of material is amazing.
the only other band I can think of right now is Quicksand - once again ill say anything walter has done is pretty much flawless.
Ill try to think of more but all I can think of are bands that only released a handful of 7"s or just one. I'm trying to think of some long distance runners here.
I will like to add the following albums that strike bands from the category as much as it pains me to do so:
cro mags- alpha omega
bad brains - god of love and rise(yes it counts)
govt issue - joyride
slapshot blast furnace
black flag - loose nut and espcially my war side b
7 seconds- ourselves (sorry old dudes but huge disappointment to me)
SSD- how we rock
DYS - DYS
dag nasty - anything after wig out
angry samoans -STP not LSD
please add ones I forgot

Sounds like an old song by Mercury Rev, was it "chasing a bee"? or something like that

Hey, wasn't teh question your ONE fave band, based on their entire catalog?
So HARD to choose, and not my all time favorite band at all, but I might say Placebo have never released anything less than great records that have grown on me even when I didn't completely dig them at first!

this is pretty hard. but when I really think about it, I'd have to say:
Slayer
I mean, even if I didn't have their whole catalog, I could get by with Reign-Seasons alone. I could honestly listen to those EVERY DAY and never get sick of them.
Danzig-era Misfits is also a good choice
Ramones (you'd have a lot to listen to)
Stereolab
Morbid Angel
