If Dream Theater were on that list, I would vote them as #1.

But since they are absent, I'll have to vote for Porcupine Tree (with Ozric and Marillion as VERY close seconds!).
The more that things change, the more they stay the same.

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

I like NIN but Reznor's work is in NO WAY prog.Pure Industrial music.

But hey! Preferably just the Fish era...

(Although I have to admit there are a couple of great albums by Hogarth, but just a couple!)

Overall, probably THERION, though they're progressive metal rather than
metal per se. Of the symphonic bands, perhaps SINKADUS.
REVOLUTIONARY ARMY OF THE INFANT JESUS were fantastic too, with
three outstanding albums, although only on the fringes of prog (more a
folk/psychedelic/industrial crossover, but still very proggy). Can't say I
really rate any of the bands in the list.
