Genesis, obviously. Three 5-star albums against none for King Crimson.

Crimson is more important indeed, and they are my favorite! Big smile

Or was that Pink Floyd? Confused
I've got a few more days to make up my mind.

It seems like that people think that it's about which band is more important rather than what is their favourite :- /
There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Such a sentimental happening, this poll. Genesis is very good, but als overrated IMHO. Tresspass, Nursury Cryme and Foxtrot are all pretty good, but after that the band became poppy and romantic which ruined a lot of otherwise good song-writing.

King Crimson always had this brave vision of constant progression and that is to be celebrated. I don't like some of their 'Crimso-metal'-album that much, but albums like the debut, the second, Lizard and Red make this one of my favorite bands.

Other bands that I might have voted for if added to the poll: Magma and SBB. The latter should have gotten way more attention in this poll

I like one Crimson album, I like at least 9 Genesis albums, being Foxtrot and Nursery Cryme my  two favorite albums ever.

The choice is easy for me....Genesis all the way.

Well, if KC has so easily and rapidly gotten the lead in this poll against Genesis, who hardly was able to brake the tie with Yes, I guess they are the easy winners of this tournament. I myself don't know, they are somewhat equal for me. I like Yes more than this two, though.

A hard choice but I go for Genesis. I prefer more of their albums to King Crimson's.


Yeah, they're going to win the tournament.


And deservedly so, if you ask me.
