Nothing against Tool, but a rather easy choice for me this time.

Interesting matchup here! One of the most influential 70s progressive rock bands of all time that is still going today against one of the premier progressive metal acts. Both acts have managed to penetrate into the mainstream while still making aesthetically pleasing and progressive music. Which do you prefer and why?


Please: If you are not familiar with one or both of the band's material, I urge that you use the links provided and at least listen to the samples on their respective pages.

Rush's PA page: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=609
Tool's PA page: http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=1199

As always, discussions are encouraged.
