My mom introduced me to Yes. I bought Fragile. Crimson, Can, and Zappa came not long after. From there, it was downhill.

I think a lot of metal guys get into prog because of their appreciation for technical wizardry. As soon as they realize that there are things that are technically difficult besides just shredding, they turn their ears to prog.

For me, ...And Justice for All by Metallica got me into prog-ish stuff. It's their only proggy record, and it's awesome. Total gateway experience, as far as moving toward prog in increments.

Yup. METALLICA is a huge gateway to deeper prog experience. MASTER OF PUPPETS , AND JUSTICE FOR ALL are METALLICA's best prog related material. ;)
