ELP - I have tried for years but just can't - worse than fingernails on chalkboard.

A couple of others that I had a hard time with that I have started to like a little more are Gentle Giant and Mars Volta.

I wasn't going to ask, but thanks for the information.  Never listened to Tool but I checked out this song and at least for now they get my vote on this thread.

I can't get into Dream Theater, Marillion, or Pink Floyd. I'm a little unsure of Opeth too; I like the vocals, but I find the music overall to be a little repetitive and kind of dull.

I either like or respect most everything under the prog label.  I haven't gotten all the fuss over Radiohead yet ... but I'm going to give it a rest and try it again later. 
I repeat myself when under stress.

Can't get into Genesis... though I expect someday I will.

Love Rush though... Sometimes I think these two groups are mutually exclusive.

 

If it's worth playing, it's worth playing loud!

Most everything thrown out here i can get into. The only Prog group that I can't in Camel. I can't even put my finger on why anymore than the vocals just come across dry and lifeless. This also make the music come across with a hook. Maybe in the future, it will just click.

Oh yeah, and Opeth. I think their music is great, but the vocals.....ugh, sorry Opeth fans- here's one band that won't be gracing my album bookcase.

I tried some GG, never really struck a chord with me, but it was alright.  Same for Marillion and POS.

GENESIS, i cant like it..i try...

OPETH i hate the vocals, but im getting a little more used to it

I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t.
