I voted other. Of all things offered, psychedelic is the closest call, however, most of the time my favourite music is new wave/post punk: XTC, Talking Heads, Television, Cabaret Voltaire, The Jam, Lene Lovich etc.

Actually, I'm occasionally listening to everything on the list except hip hop and crappy contemporary pop.
Percussion, sir!

Jazz, followed by classical, both of which I like more than prog at this point in time.

Metal.
But like some other guys in this thread said, Post Hardcore, definitely what I listen to most just behind metal.
Post Hardcore =Best Sub genre of punk ever IMO.

Didn't realise 'psychedelic proto-prog' was now somehow considered 'non-prog'. Oh well, that's what I picked.
 
Had it not been a choice, I probably would have chosen either hard rock or metal, as I consider all the subcategories on this site to be under the Prog umbrella. But, since proto-prog was considered a seperate genre in this poll, it's a-what-ah-picked.

Right you are, JROCHA, on the first two (not so sure about Indie).  I like your Al Dimeola Elegant Gypsy avatar too - a great album from a great jazz-rock guitarist...

After prog its a pretty much equal balance of acid folk, hip-hop, jazz, classical (mainly contemporary stuff), and psychedelic proto prog. Put my vote down for hip-hop cause it'll probably be pretty stagnant here Tongue.

Elecctronica.

Give me a nice beat by Sasha, The Crystal Method, The Chemical Brothers, Juno Reactor, Underworld or Fluke and I'm somewhat content.

Used to listen to Electronica for years before I rediscovered Prog.

Definitely classic/hard rock for me, followed by classic heavy metal and folk (or perhaps I'd better call it 'world music').

I don't have favourite genres.

Punk, reggae, world, pop, classical, jazz, psych-rock, folk, disgusting 80s AOR, post-punk... all good. I just know a bit more about prog than the others

But just today, I'll say Reggae

Hard/classic rock for me, which is the bedrock of prog.  The Animals, Fleetwood Mac (Peter Green-era), Spooky Tooth, The Band, Cream, Hendrix, The Byrds, The Who, The Yardbirds, and a whole slew of others paved the way for prog.

I prefer so-called classical music to prog, but I could never live without the latter, or without jazz.
