Wow. Clash, Clark, Soda.

This feels like a DDD reunion.

7. The Beach Boys

After that it gets really tricky to rank them, with plenty of contenders like the Kinks, Black Sabbath, the Doors, the Grateful Dead, Queen, CCR, Nirvana, etc. But that top seven ought to be unquestionable, I think, despite quibbles about the exact order after the obvious top three.
Pretty spot on Clashwho.

My whole problem with objectivity in music isn't really whether it's feasible, more the fact that it seems to generate really dull top 10 lists.

I do, but obviously you don't. It doesn't exist within the arts.

I obviously don't then, sure art is subjective but picking a top 10 list usually is based around facts. Some may not want to include facts, all i was basing my list on was pretty much common facts such as musical impact,influence,popularity,cultural etc without being influenced by emotion or personal preferences.
I don't think "art" is above such a criteria.

When you try to determine influence and impact it's impossible not to be biased by your own opinions and feelings about the music involved. And popularity have nothing to do with quality.
