This one is sooooooooo hard. Both have an amazing body of work and huge influencial power in the world of rock and progressive rock.
I feel though that in the main stream rock avenue, Genesis is more influential, while KC was not as broad. I also feel the body of work goes to Genesis, more recognized, more influential.....but so hard as In the Court is so huge of a production.....
Genesis is my 2nd favorite band of all time........I'm fighting the urge....I've got to take some time on this one.....

Tough one.  Have to go with Crimson as I find their output more consistent, and they were always interested in changing their sound.

...Genesis, you know that you have my eternal love. But my vote rests in the court of the Crimson King this time round. I've always felt that King Crimson were one of the most "progressive" of all the bands in prog-rock.
All your hearts now seem so far from me,
It hardly seems to matter now.

Welcome to Semi-finals Division 1 of Battle of the Prog Bands!  This time, our two contenders are Genesis and King Crimson.  Vote for your favorite, and the band with the most votes will move onto the Finals.  Please do not vote unless you have listened to at least one album by both bands.

Here is the tournament thus far:

Schedule for Upcoming Matches
Semi-finals Division 2 - November 13
Finals - November 18
Final Results - November 24

About a year ago I would have said Genesis.  Now I say King Crimson.  Unparalleled in the Rock world in general as far as re-inventing themselves and innovation goes.
