I'm hardly an expert on either of these scenes, but for canterbury check out Soft Machine, Hatfield & The North, National Health and Caravan.  I know even less about Italian, so I won't even go there...

Oh yeah, I voted art-rock...

Thats so true... because if you look at the archives there are quite a few unnamed or not so famous bands in the symphonic sub-genre... so you've left them out only because ELP, Yes and Genesis are in that group...

And yet you've included Psychedelic/Space Rock which Pink FLoyd falls under.. and they are probably even larger than ELP - Yes or Genesis...

I see some sort of bias going on here...

(And Richard, I love your signature!! )

Zeuhl — A sub-genre of progressive rock created by the French band Magma that is really a unique and very challenging form of jazz fusion incorporating chanting, dissonance and loud rock. Stylistically there are elements of Bartok, Stockhausen, Duke Ellington, and blues shouting.

Ooh you can vote twice! Space/psych rock and Krautrock  I prefer them to symphonic.

Pretty self-explanatory, methinks. I'm not including Symphonic in this as most of the "1st tier" groups come under that category and I'm more interested in discovering people's little niches than starting another thread extolling the virtues of Genesis and ELP. So, what sub-genres do it for you?
