I think I forgot Rush ... but I was rather going for bands that had their peak in the 90s. I recently bought 2112, my first Rush album. I think it's great!

It's sad that you don't know many bands from that list ...

I voted for Meshuggah.. a lot of those other bands just sound like heavy rock with a metallic edge, not really progressing in my eyes. I respect Voivod, though, and also Atheist and Arcturus who either didn't make the poll, or I missed.

edit: oh, and Fantomas and Mr. Bungle could fit this category too, I love them both too.

^ I really like Evergrey ... but the poll asks for the BEST prog metal band. It's unlikely that all the bands I listed get votes.

Exactly.

I never understood what is so magnificent about them. They're always so serious and write monotonous, accusating/complaining and depressing songs ... they are a 4 star band for me. But that's just me ... I would prefer Queensryche any time. They're less progressive, but more fun.

YOU SHOULD GIVE SOME TIME TO A PLEASENT SADE IT IS A RATHER SAD ALBUM BUT I BELIVE IT IS TOTALY 5 STAR ONE IMO. QUEENSRYCHE ARE GREAT TOO. TATE IS THE BEST VOICE IN METAL.

You don't have to shout (write in capital letters) all the time ... 

IF I WANTED TO SHOUT IT WOULD BE LIKE THIS.

IT´S JUST A HABIT. I WILL TRY TO stop it



Aye because the QUEENSRYCHE lad up there wasn't shouting...
