A bunch of bands off the top of my head

Today it's just VDGG and Swans.

At this moment, of all these names I only really can go with three of them:

It's my annoying compromise that is really no compromise at all.

That explains it. Ok, not a big deal. I voted for Magma and VDGG. I know some stuff by some of the others like Radiohead, GYBE, TD and Can but not familiar enough to vote so just went with Magma and VDGG (I've also seen both at least twice which I can't say about any of the others).

Thanks, I only have seen Magma in concert of those.

And I just realised that somehow Portishead did not get into the list, which is weird since that has been one of my most listened to bands over the last few years (top five I expect despite only having three studio albums, but a few lives I also have been into). I guess things are too often amiss when posting on your phone while waiting in hot cars -- a way to pass some time. I am adding Portishead, because otherwise this list does not adequately represent me, and The Residents.

I voted:

Tangerine Dream and Can.

These are all (or at least mostly) prog bands so why isn't this in the prog poll section?
