just because a band has progressive albums or songs does not make that band progressive.

you've got to have an opinion as to how many albums or songs it takes to be able to be

called progressive or not 

Well, one complete album is a good start, and this rule seems to be the one used by the admins ... but there are exceptions to every rule ...

A good pop/rock band, who used a lot of progressive moves on their first
few albums. Then again, so did many heavy-ish rock bands in the early
seventies. Definitely not prog, in my view.

Great band, borderline prog (art rock is a fuzzy subsection).

I cannot vote in you poll, because it lacks the option "Partially prog and good".

IMO their first three albums have a lot of progressive songs (Queen I, Queen II, Sheer Heart Attack), and Queen II can be called a Prog album. As a band, they don't belong here. But Queen II must be here.

I actually think that Queen are a fantastic band, one of me  favourites, but not prog.
