no offense but the search button is your friend. this has been done so many times, it's not funny anymore. cant we abolish all "favorite bands/albums/songs/moments" threads once and for all? it's sad enough that many polls are direct comparisons of bands/albums/whatsoever. it would be nice to go a bit deeper into the music and not just rate favorites or two bands against each other. i know it is fun, but I'm just saying that there is more.
on topic: look at my last.fm page, it got all the informations
PS: how prog is stratovarius?

Hey you are lucky. I made the same mistake of posting a thread that already existed, on tool, and I had about 10 guys ripping on me, but whatever. As for my favorite bands they are, in no particular order
- Indukti( I know they have not done much, but S.U.S.A.R is one of my favorite albums, I cannot wait for a second realese)
- Yes
- Pink Floyd
-
Van der Graff Generator
- Gentle Giant
- Tool( I do not care if any of you think they are prog or not.)
- Genesis(before hackett left obviously.)
- liquid tension experiment(it gives me hope that one day dream theater will get a new singer, preferably one that writes his own music, or has some sort of musical talent.)
- Le Orme
- Porcupine Tree

Hi progfanatic,

Hatfield and the North.
Caravan.
Camel.
Van der graff generator.
King Crimson.
Gentle Giant.
Gong.
Egg.
Yes.
cressida.
Others of note being Matching mole,ELP,Khan,Steve Hillage,and Peter Hammill.

My goodness what is happening to this forum.
I've stopped coming on here so much that it's rare I'm on more than once a week, considering I used to be on a few times a day when I had the chance.
The problem is too many brainless threads like this and I'm sure because of this I've noticed a lack of participation with some of the older more experienced members as well and it's a damn shame.

Every forum ive ever posted on has been the same. Just the same old sh*t over and over; but there's usually the odd decent thread that makes it worth posting

Jesus christ, the only thing less original than posting a "favourite prog bands"-thread is whining about it. You only bump it by doing so anyway. It's not that i don't agree, but what are you gonna do about it? Kill him?

Possibly But being serious, I'm glad it gets bumped that's kind of why I did it, so some admin could possibly see it and start doing something about terrible threads like this.
