I don't hate them with a passion...


Only because I decided not to give them enough of a chance to earn that sort of disrespect...

Anyway, they got my vote, I like all the others.

I hate DT with a passion
When the world is sick
Can't no one be well
But I dreamt we were all
beautiful and strong

Dream theater is my favorite band so that rules them out.... of all the others, all of them of the "classic" era, Yes is my favorite (and the only in my top ten of all time).... Genesis, Floyd, Crimson, rush, Giant, all masters....so that leaves only Tull, VDGG and Camel.... Tull is very good, I haven't heard Camel, and VDGG is good but it didn't work 100% for me.... so in other words... I have no idea.... but let's be irrational and vote for the band I haven't bought a cd from, for tham shows I don't care much about knowing them... Camel.

Camel, I don't think they were great,there are bands more successful and infinately more innovative than Camel. To me they sound too typical. Nice sounding though but certainly should not be anywhere near the top 100, I think they laked that  edge and innovation that garnered other prog bands the attention, I think they played it too safe. Pleasant enough but nothing impressive.

The 10 bands listed in the poll are considered to be among the elite of progressive rock.  They appear prominantly in the Prog Archives Top Music Albums listings.  However, I sometimes wonder how many others, like myself, do not particularly enjoy certain "all-time great" bands.  For example, I am still trying to like Genesis, Rush and Pink Floyd, but they just do not "turm me on" like Jethro Tull, King Crimson, Camel or Gentle Giant.  So I offer this poll, not to see the most popular band, but to see which of the great bands is least popular.  Give it a vote!
